The study aimed at identifying the role of 'TAMAM' project in the
administrative empowerment of schools in the Sultanate of Oman from the
point of view of school administrations and their teachers. To achieve the
objectives of the study, the researcher used a mixed method, which is based
on the integration of quantitative and qualitative research using two tools:
a questionnaire and interviews. The study population and its sample
consisted of all school principals and their assistants, and members of the
school teams from schools implementing the TAMAM project in the
academic year 2019/2020. A total number of (62) individuals participated
during data collection. The study concluded that participants perceived the
pillars of the TAMAM project to have had significant impact on
administrative empowerment. The results revealed a lack of stable
financial support for the project, shortage of time, a lot of burdens and daily
tasks, lack of interest, and lack of follow-up on and encouragement for
implementing schools. Add to that, the lack of administrative and technical
staff is among the most significant obstacles facing the school, limiting and
restricting the roles of school administrations in relation to the TAMAM
project.
