Download or read book Theories of Educational Leadership and Management written by Tony Bush and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2010-11-30 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this established text Tony Bush presents the major theories of educational management, and links them to contemporary policy and practice. Leadership continues to be one of the major criteria used to differentiate the models; but the author now makes clear links between educational management theories and the main models of leadership. The author applies the models to a range of international contexts, including both developed and developing countries. This relates to global interest in concepts of leadership and management and to an increasing recognition of the need to customize theory and practice to each context and culture rather than adopting a `one size fits all′ approach. For the Fourth Edition, the essential conceptual models remain. New case study material has been added from the full range of education and non-school settings, from early years through to further and higher education. Each chapter now includes key words, summary and end of chapter materials including issues for discussion. Key terms are defined in-text for the non-expert reader and all references and relevant key legislation details have been fully updated. This book is essential reading for all teachers who aspire to management, as well as for experienced leaders on Masters′ level courses, and for those studying school management as part of education studies degrees.

This book was released on 2021-06-25 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic has introduced a new paradigm in education that has forced school management teams to re-imagine their curricula delivery functions and obligations during and post COVID-19. Now there are concerns about the state to which curriculum delivery in schools is likely to become planned, implemented, and managed. Investigating the Roles of School Management Teams in Curriculum Delivery improves the quality of planning, implementation, and management of curriculum delivery to advance the quality of teaching and learning in schools. Particularly, it envisages innovative strategies, best practices, and addresses problems in the planning, implementation, and delivery of curricula by school management teams. Covering topics such as curriculum delivery theory, curriculum delivery in planning, implementation, and management during and post COVID-19; curriculum delivery in assessment and alternative assessment; and reimagining inclusivity in curriculum delivery, this edited book is essential for departmental heads, deputy principals, education district officials, department of basic education curriculum designers, instructional designers, administrators, academicians, university teachers, researchers, and post-graduate students.
Download or read book School Management and Effectiveness in Developing Countries written by Clive Harber and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2006-02-08 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is quite different from existing 'Western' books on school effectiveness. It describes and analyses the way in which schools operate in developing countries and also tries to explain why they are as they are. Examining them at three levels - the macro, the meso and the micro - the authors use a theoretical framework that they have termed 'post-bureaucracy.' The book has four interlinked sections. First the authors examine the existing economic and theoretical contexts around school effectiveness, including an analysis of the causes of economic crisis and its impact on school management. In the second section the analysis of schools as bureaucratic facades is proposed. The reality of school life, from which any theory of school effectiveness must derive, is illustrated by an ethnographic account of the job of the headteacher in developing countries. The third section explores different ways to understand this reality, operating on three levels: global relationships, national and community cultures, and individual agency. In the final section Haber and Davies draw these levels and realities together. They argue for the democratization of schools as the only way forward for effective education fordevelopment.

Download or read book Higher Education Management written by Warner, David and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 1996-08-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many higher education institutions are like small towns, meeting the needs of their members by providing not only specialist teaching and research activities but also residential accommodation, catering, telecommunications, counselling, sports facilities and so on. The management of these institutions is very complex, requiring both generalist and specialist knowledge and skills; and the move to formal strategic planning means that it is no longer acceptable for higher education managers to be aware only of their own relatively narrow areas of expertise. All new managers would benefit from an holistic perspective on managing a whole institution. As such individuals are promoted, such 'helicopter vision' becomes a precondition of their and their institution's success. Higher Education Management provides: * the first comprehensive account of non-academic higher education management. * contributions from distinguished practitioners of university management. * a key resource for all aspiring, trainee and practising managers in higher education.
