The growing research interest in educational leadership requires the investigation of new school
leadership perspectives as schools become more complex structures. This article explored the
perceptions of primary school teachers and administrators on leadership capacity of their schools
and related factors. This study employed a mixed method in which both quantitative and qualitative
research methods were used together. A total of 2370 participants including teachers, vice principals
and principals from 179 primary schools were included in the quantitative part of the study while 18
participants including teachers and school administrators participated in the qualitative part of the
study. The research findings suggested that participants' levels of perception on distributed
leadership and shared school vision subscales were lower than their levels of perceptions on
collaboration and shared responsibility and perceived student achievement. The findings also
illustrated that participants from schools with high leadership capacity thought they participated in
vision building and instructional decision-making processes more frequently. The paper draws
implications for improving teaching and learning in the schoolhouse.
