Abstract
This article aimed to investigate how much participatory management techniques aid in enhancing primary school governance. The main question of this article is, “To what degree do principals practice participative management in primary schools’ governance in the Tshwane-West District?’’ In this article, the quantitative methodology was applied. Information on the post-positivistic and interpretivist viewpoints was gathered via a questionnaire. The information in the questionnaire was strengthened by thoughtfully applying the knowledge gleaned from the literature review. A pilot study was conducted to validate the questionnaire. The triangulation of data from sources like literature reviews and questionnaires was the main method of reliability used in this study. All primary school principals (n=98) in the District of Tshwane-West area of the Gauteng Province of the Republic of South Africa made up the research population. The data were defined using the quantitative approach, which comprised explanatory techniques, inferential statistics like factor analysis and Cronbach's alpha coefficient, and descriptive statistics like frequencies and mean scores.
