abstract: The purpose of this study was to explore the role, experiences, and challenges of principals
in Orang Asli primary schools during the Covid-19 pandemic. The study is a qualitative study using
purposive sampling to select the informants. The data was gathered from in-depth semi-structured
interviews with the principals. "Roles and responsibilities," "challenges during the Covid-19 epidemic,"
and "strategies and expectations" were the three primary themes discovered throughout the analysis.
The findings of the study emphasized the critical role of principals in managing their schools, especially
during unprecedented situations such as the Covid-19 pandemic. By identifying these emerging themes,
principals and educational policy-makers can focus on their current efforts while facilitating and
accommodating the needs of their workforce, families, and students. This study also contributed to the
body of knowledge regarding the importance of leadership in school organizations.
