Features: According to statistics, there are approximately 5 million primary and secondary school head teachers in China. Since the 21st century, special educational issues such as "left-behind family," "single-parent family," and "migrant worker family" have become increasingly prominent, and the work of head teachers has also shown new characteristics. The challenges faced by head teachers have become more evident. This book conducts a comprehensive survey using the internet and invites renowned authors from various regions to propose ten topics each. The chief editor compiles and repeatedly screens them, ultimately selecting over ninety difficult issues faced by head teachers. The authors provide answers to these problems and propose strategies and suggestions to address them, offering strong guidance and reference value for head teachers in performing their duties. This is a book that benefits from collective wisdom. What are the main difficulties that confound head teachers? We conducted a broad survey using the internet and invited dozens of authors to propose ten topics each. The chief editor compiled and repeatedly screened them, ultimately selecting over ninety topics. This is a book that embodies collective intelligence. We have clarified a fundamental issue—it is "difficulties," not general problems. It describes the confusion difficulties bring to head teachers while also outlining solutions and approaches. Describing the difficulties serves as a foundation for solving them. The character "difficult" reflects requirements, showcases characteristics, demonstrates expertise, and also indicates the level of difficulty. Difficulties must be micro-problems within macro-problems. Micro-problems can reflect macro-problems and should be vivid and typical. Analyzing difficulties must be specific, actionable, and highly operational.
