The current research used the analytic descriptive approach, and applied a questionnaire in its field framework to identify the actual reality of professional competencies.

The study sample was chosen by a simple random method to apply the questionaire to (450) school principals, deputy principals and teachers.

The study found that the reality of the professional competencies of school principals in the first cycle of basic education is a percentage of (46.67%), and with arithmetic mean (1.40 out of 3).

That means it is low as it falls in the category (1.00 to 1.66).

This is due to the deficiency in the professional, performance, skill, planning and organizational competencies of the school principals of the first cycle of basic education, and this fact resulted in the necessity of designing proposed mechanisms to develop their professional competencies in order to keep pace with the continuous development and improvement, and to be able to face the rapidly changing challenges and achieve the desired goals of the educational institution.
