Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our fifth book in the International Research on School Leadership series focuses on the use of data in schools and districts as useful information for leadership and decision making. Schools are awash in data and information, from test scores, to grades, to discipline reports, and attendance as just a short list of student information sources, while additional streams of data feed into schools and districts from teachers and parents as well as local, regional and national policy levels. To deal with the data, schools have implemented a variety of data practices, from data rooms, to data days, data walks, and data protocols. However, despite the flood of data, successful school leaders are leveraging an analysis of their school’s data as a means to bring about continuous improvement in an effort to improve instruction for all students. Nevertheless, some drown, some swim, while others find success. Our goal in this book volume is to bring together a set of chapters by authors who examine successful data use as it relates to leadership and school improvement. In particular, the chapters in this volume consider important issues in this domain, including: • How educational leaders use data to inform their practice. • What types of data and data analysis are most useful to successful school leaders. • To what extent are data driven and data informed practices helping school leaders positively change instructional practice? • In what ways does good data collection and analysis feed into successful continuous improvement and holistic systems thinking? • How have school leadership practices changed as more data and data analysis techniques have become available? • What are the major obstacles facing school leaders when using data for decision making and how do they overcome them?
Download or read book Local School Management of Schools written by Northern Ireland: Northern Ireland Audit Office and published by . This book was released on 2004-02-19 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction in 1990 of Local Management of Schools (LMS) arrangements changed the way in which schools are funded and managed, by giving Boards of Governors and school principals autonomy over resource allocation and priority setting. Over £1 billion will be spent during 2003-04 on schools in Northern Ireland, with governors and principals now controlling about 70 per cent of funding spent on school children. The size of an individual school's budget can vary from under £50,000 for a small nursery or primary school to over £6 million for the largest post primary school. This report's findings include that whilst the measure of achievement against the policy aims of LMS has fallen short of completely transforming the culture and working patterns of schools, it should be regarded as a developing reform and represents one step towards empowering the educational community to bring about improvement in educational outcomes. The report makes a number of recommendations to the Department of Education and the Education and Library Boards to do more to support school governors, which it is acknowledged play a pivotal role under LMS, acting in a voluntary capacity and giving freely of their time to help and support schools achieve the highest standards.

Book excerpt: Resource management, though a central responsibility of school and college leaders, is one that they are often unprepared for. Concise and contextual information and guidance are vital, especially as leaders are pressured from all sides to manage their resources astutely. This new edition of Educational Resource Management: An International Perspective is an updated and globally conscious guide to all aspects of this key responsibility. Opening with a detailed overview of funding and resource management in public and private institutions, the book looks at the criteria by which the effectiveness, efficiency, and equity of educational resource management can be judged. It goes on to explore cost structures, budgets, and the principles of asset management through case studies that draw on practitioner experiences as well as the authors' own observations. Educational Resource Management concludes with a review of current tensions and points towards further study, providing a succinct yet comprehensive guide for school and college leaders.
Download or read book Local Management of Schools written by Rosalind Levačić and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: * What is the impact of local management on how schools are managed? * Are schools now able to use resources more efficiently? * Has local management improved the quality of teaching and learning in schools? In Local Management of Schools, Rosalind Levacic offers an evaluation of this new form of management and contextualises it within an international trend towards decentralised school management. Since 1990, headteachers and school governors in England and Wales have had extensive powers to manage school budgets - and are responsible for all of a school's resource needs including staff. As the school budget is dependent on pupil numbers and parents now have more choice over which school their children will attend, local management has had profound effects on how schools are managed and resourced. The book presents original empirical research on local management and concludes that while schools are now able to use resources more efficiently there is little evidence to support the government's claim that local management plays a key role in raising standards of teaching and learning.
