Abstract

ABSTRACT

The article analyzes the barriers that hinder women access to school management in early and ele‐ mentary education. Through a several‐stages method, a sample of 622 female teachers and 206 head‐ teachers from Andalusia was selected. Data were collected through a scale named Barriers in the access to the school management, whose dimensions reflect possible barriers to career development. Results show that role-conflict and the lack of motherhood-supporting politics are the most important barriers for both teachers and head‐teachers. Also, head‐teachers responses show higher self‐esteem and social skills than teachers’.
