抄録

The study is intended to identify the contemporary meaning of publicness and accountability, and to set the concept of publicness and accountability concerned with the role of school system leaders In general, Being "public" has the means of "commonality" and "openness" from the aspect of content, and has the meaning of "official recognition" and "personal responsibility" from the aspect of legitimacy. The phases made of these aspects of publicness, give great influence on the characteristics of curriculum, and make the curriculum uniform, extensive, diverse and stratous as the phase stands. The transition of the characteristics of curriculum give change to the role of educational leadership. On the other hand the movement to seek educational accountability gives momentum to the argument that important powers should be given to schools in order to promote school-based management. This movement asks the school system leaders, who are located at the hub between the school board and school, to be more accountable, politically and ethically to make school more accountable. As a conclusion, 5 phases of the professional socialization of leadership: Survival, Control, Stability, Educational Leadership and Professional Actualization are examined in relationship with the argument about publicity and accountability as mentioned above. The findings of this study are supposed to play an important role in getting perspectives for training and recruiting of school system leaders, and making schools more accountable.
