Description The purpose of this study was to investigate the provision of student leadership in private school settings in Lebanon. A survey involving 60 private schools, including 60 principals and 300 teachers was administered and analyzed for perceptions bear by the two groups on the effectiveness of the educational system supported in their schools in developing and nurturing student leadership skills. Data was analyzed using SPSS 18.0. Descriptive statistics were used to describe and summarize the properties of the mass of data collected from the respondents. Percentages were calculated per each item of the survey instrument. Results indicate that both groups of respondents displayed weak evaluation of the education systems offered by their own schools in terms of promoting student leadership. Thus, leading to the conclusion that the provision of student leadership is weak. The study offers research-based description of barriers confronting student leadership development in Lebanese private schools through the lens of both principals and teachers. Recommendations for both practice and future research are offered.
