Challenges in Educational Management
Originally published in 1986. Hitherto, most educational managers, including head teachers and senior staff in schools, have been expected to carry out their management tasks without any formal training. Recent initiatives, however, are changing this and all educational managers are now being encouraged to undertake some form of training. This book provides a framework for the study of educational management. Management in other professions has been a major concern for a long time and this book selects from this existing literature, theory and experience (for example from management studies and business studies) and relates relevant material to the context of education. It looks at the major themes and problems in educational management, discusses the appropriate theories and shows how good practices may be applied.
New School Management Approaches
Those who manage schools and educational systems today have an arduous task as schools everywhere are being asked to do more than ever before. This book analyses how they are responding, focusing on new school management approaches at the primary and secondary school levels.
Contemporary Issues in Education Management and Administration
Many challenges arise in the practice of management and administration in education in Zambia, principally owing to the fact that the prevailing practices are devoid of a theoretical framework to address the challenges. Management in education borrows its theories from management and administration as a general social science, but with the emerging issues in education there is a call for a book that can be tailored to answering the challenges of the 21St century. The management of education in Zambia ought to be premised on the realistic challenges that arise from practice. By using the Western perspectives on leadership theories, they only help to explain and examine the nature of leadership in education but those leadership theories are not panaceas to unfold all of the phenomena of leadership. On the other hand, the Westerners' perspectives seems to fail to unfold the nature education management since they do not account multifaceted factors that lie in the nature of leadership that is influenced by unstable environments and also intertwine with different school contexts especially the complex bureaucratic systems, cultural issues, and specific contexts of schools in the region.
