 Araştırmanın amacı İzmir ilinde yer alan resmi okullarında görev yapan okul müdürlerinin mentorluk düzeyleri ile müdür yardımcılarının okul gelişim ihtiyaçlarını belirleyebilmeleri arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesidir. Çalışma ilişkisel tarama modelinde olup nicel bir çalışmadır. Araştırma evrenini İzmir ili merkez ilçelerinde yer alan 785 resmî okul oluştururken basit seçkisiz örnekleme kullanılarak 320 okul ve bu okullarda görevli 358 müdür yardımcısı örneklemi oluşturulmuştur. Araştırmada Okul Gelişim İhtiyaçlarının Belirlenmesi ve Mentorluk Fonksiyonları adlı ölçekler kullanılmıştır. Veri analizinde betimsel ve ilişkisel istatistikler kullanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre, müdür yardımcılarının okul gelişim ihtiyaçlarını belirleme düzeyi okul kademesi ve okullarındaki öğrenci sayısına göre anlamlı bir farklılık göstermiştir. Müdür yardımcılarının müdürleri tarafından mentorluk hizmeti alma düzeyi toplam puanları ile okul gelişim ihtiyaçlarını belirleyebilme alt boyutlarının tümü ile arasındaki ilişkinin olumlu olduğu görülmüştür. Regresyon analizi sonuçlarına göre müdür yardımcılarının müdürleri tarafından yetiştirilmesinin, okul müdür yardımcılarının okullarının gelişim ihtiyaçlarını belirleyebilme alt boyutları üzerinde anlamlı bir yordayıcı olduğu görülmüştür.
