The dimensions scored from high to low are creating advantagous learning enviornment, promoting teachers’ profession growth, establishing students’ learning vision, improving density of leadership for learning, and sharing performance and responsibily. The teacher leadership perceived by teachers at New Taipei Municipal elementary schools is also high-intermediate. The dimensions scored from high to low are colleague collaboration, affirmation recognition, profession autonomy, collaborative participation, and developmental guidance. According to the analysis on background varibles, teacher’s gender, job responsibility, and school size demonstrate significant differences on principals’ leadership for learning. School size also showed a significant variable to teacher leadership. Principals’ leadership for learning is not only moderately positive correlated with teacher leadership, it is also a positive predictor to teacher leadership. Among all dimensions, sharing performance and responsibility helps predict teacher leadership best.
