The most important issue in the management of modern schools in the innovation environment is the transfer of the traditional school to the novel educational institution and to implement developmental strategies. The purpose of the paper is to analyze innovative approaches that principals use in public schools of Azerbaijan and to evaluate, describe and interpret the situation in its original environment.
