Abstract

The professional development of school principals is one factor that plays a role in their success. As a matter of fact, scholars have focused on the professional development sources of school principals in recent years. Previous research has addressed the effects of pre-service or in-service training on school principals’ careers. However, the Ministry of National Education and scholars has neglected the holistic view of mentoring practice’s effects on the professionalization of Turkish principals. The main purpose of the current study is to examine the mentoring approach in the professional development of novice principals. This study, which is a review, has analyzed the panorama in the world and Türkiye. The results show that mentoring is used in many countries; however, it is not officially implemented in Türkiye, and mentoring provides meaningful contributions to novice principals. Moreover, similar contributions are valid to mentor principals, teachers, students, and educational authorities. Based on the results, implementation suggestions were made to the authorities, and study recommendations were made for the researchers.
