However, a principal cannot function solely and thus, needs the assistance of a vice principal or assistant principal. An assistant principal is a level below in the professional hierarchy and reports to the principal. Besides, in the absence of the principal, she is authorized to take decisions and actions.

In the capacity of the vice principal, one has to coordinate with the staff, keep a track of the school's performance, keep a proper record of the students' progress, coordinate and communicate with parents, get feedback, discuss issues or new ideas, etc., with them, and serve as a mediator between the principal and school staff, students, and parents.
