摘要：The present study aimed to explore the extent of carrying out self-assessment practices by leaders in private schools in Amman in accordance with the standards of the Arab Organization for Quality Assurance of Education. To meet the study’s goals, a sixty two item questionnaire was developed. This questionnaire sheds a light on six areas. The reliability and validity of the questionnaire were measured. The questionnaire forms were distributed to 256 principals. Those principals were selected randomly. They were selected from the private schools located in Amman. It was found that the extent of carrying out self-assessment practices by leaders in private schools in Amman is high. It was found that there are statistically significant differences –at the statistical significance level of (a=0.05)- between respondents’ attitudes which can be attributed to gender. The latter differences are for the favor of females. It was found that there isn’t any statistically significant difference –at the statistical significance level of (a=0.05)- between respondents’ attitudes which can be attributed to experience. The researchers recommend providing the principals in private schools with training courses about the way of forming groups for carrying out self-assessment. Such training courses must promote knowledge about the way of carrying out self-assessment in accordance with the standards of the Arab Organization for Quality Assurance of Education.
