Abstract | As school leadership has increased in complexity, policy makers, educationalists, and researchers have realized that principalship requires preparation. However, several researchers have called for a better understanding of how school leadership education affects the learning and activities of principals. This empirical study explores how novice principals in Sweden understand and engage in principal training and investigates their formation of identity in the interaction between school leader education and professional practice. Observations, individual interviews, and focus group interviews revealed three learner identities and a corresponding typology. In addition, this study found that professional identity enables or restricts the way practice is experienced because principals engage in diverse leadership practices. These findings are discussed in relation to former research on learner identities, leadership learning, and novice principals. This study concludes that it is crucial not only to emphasize a program design but also focus on the participants in leadership education, especially their orientations and understandings of education and practice.
