The Iranian High Council on Education has identified certain characteristics for high school administrators in order to ensure the quality of running such places of learning. However, the extent to which the current administrators possess these characteristics is a matter of research reported herein. The general and professional characteristics of a number of high school administrators working over a period of two years were determined using a questionnaire. The analysis of the collected data revealed a huge gap between what the High Council has outlined as required general characteristics and those possessed by the current administrators. Although in professional domain, the average tenure is high, the educational background of 88% of the current administrators does not match the requirement set by the High Council.
