With the advent of site-based management, assistant principals are playing a greater role in ensuring the academic success of students by helping to develop new curricula, evaluating teachers, and dealing with school-community relations-responsibilities previously assumed solely by the principal. They also may counsel students on personal, educational, or vocational matters. They usually handle student discipline and attendance problems, social and recreational programs, and health and safety matters. They are primarily responsible for scheduling student classes, ordering textbooks and supplies, and coordinating transportation, custodial, cafeteria, and other support services. Some assistant principals hold this position for several years to prepare for advancement to principal jobs others are career assistant principals. However, Deputy Principals are higher than Assistant Principals as it will be the DP (Deputy Principal)'s responsibility to step in in case of the Principal's: absence, illness, temporary leave or resignation to step forward as Principal.
