This paper delves into the critical examination of leadership ethics and values in educational management. It argues that ethical leadership is integral to fostering a conducive learning environment that promotes student development and academic success. The discussion begins by outlining the key ethical principles that underpin effective leadership, such as integrity, fairness, and accountability. The paper then explores the challenges that educational leaders face in navigating complex institutional landscapes, where competing interests and limited resources often test their moral compass. Through a series of case studies and theoretical frameworks, the document highlights the importance of ethical decision-making in educational management. It further examines how values such as transparency, inclusivity, and respect can enhance the overall quality of leadership. The paper concludes by advocating for the integration of ethics and values training within leadership development programs to ensure that future educational leaders are well-equipped to address the moral complexities of their roles.
