Abstract

The impact of new technologies on the educational context and more specifically on the microcosm of a school is a setting in the post-COVID-19 era. This study investigates the impact of new technologies on school leadership practices and the degree of development of teachers' digital skills by studying new trends in the contemporary school setting. The approach is organized on two central themes: (a) Distributed leadership and collaborative school leadership practices in the post-COVID-19 era and (b) digital investment in school organizations and digital teacher training. This is a quantitative study with a sample of 323 teachers and data were collected using an original online questionnaire constructed for the need of this study. The results of the study indicate a shift in school leadership practices towards more collaborative models and the existence of a digital strategy in the current educational setting, although digital investment is moderately implemented in schools. Also, teachers' digital skills appear to be well developed, but continuous training is seen as increasingly imperative, since shortcomings are still identified in the modern school setting
