Principal empowerment is technically defined as the authority given to the school administrators in discharging management function.
It demotes that the principal may be empowered to:1. Handle their schools’ MOOE.2. Modify the particular DepEd order to allow him to engage in fund generation schemes through the PTA/PTCA.3. Allow him to buy their own supplies and instructional materials.
Aside from this, the principals are given the option:1. To select and form groups that can provide the needed in-service training to teachers.2. To avail of the type of training programs they need for personal and professional advancement.
In the principal empowerment program, the empowered principal is obliged to infuse systematic change in managing the school and the people in them.
The logic in principal empowerment is to give the development and implementation of appropriate reform initiative at their own level and context.
