Educational management is centrally concerned with the purpose or aims of education.These purposes or goals provide the crucial sense of direction to underpin the management ofeducational institutions. Unless this link between purpose and management is clear and close, thereis a danger of "managerialism . . . a stress on procedures at the expense of educational purpose andvalues". "Management possesses no super-ordinate goals or values of its own. The pursuit of efficiencymay be the mission statement of management - but this is efficiency in the achievement of objectiveswhich others define".LOVELY PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY1

Educational ManagementNotes1.1 Concept of Educational ManagementThe origin of the development of educational management as a field of study began in the UnitedStates in the early part of the 20th century.Development in the United Kingdom came as late as the 1960’s Herding wrote a Practical handbook ofSchool Management by Teachers. (1) Some General Principle of Management Applied to the Problems ofSchool System Franklin Bobbit of the University of Chicago published an article in 1913. (2) JesseNewton published Educational Administration as a Social Policy (1934). (3) Koopman et.al, wroteDemocracy in School Administration (1934).Meaning of Educational ManagementEducational management operates in educational organizations. As Tony Bush (1986), puts its, “Mostof the definitions of educational management which have been offered by writers are partial becausethey reflect the particular sense of author. Those which attempt a broader approach are often bland.”“School management, as a body of educational doctrine, comprises a number of principles andprecepts relating primarily to the technique of classroom procedure and derived largely from thepractice of successful teachers. The writers in the field have interpreted these principles and preceptsin various ways, usually be reference to larger and more fundamental principles of psychology,sociology and ethics.” -Paul Monroe : (1913)“Management implies an orderly way of thinking. It describes in operational terms what is to bedone, how it is to be done, and how we know when we have done. Management is not an arcanemystique. It is a method of operation. Good management should result in an orderly integration ofeducation and society-Shelley Umana : (1972)1.2 Need of Educational ManagementWhile writing about the purpose of educational management Kandel says, “Fundamentally thepurpose of educational management is to bring pupils and teachers under such conditions as wellas more successfully promote the ends of education. “Sir Graham Balfour writes very aptly, “thepurpose of educational management is to enable the right pupils to receive to the right educationfrom the right teachers, at a cost within the means of the state, which will enable pupils to profit bytheir learning.In a democratic country like ours, educational management is a necessity. Some suitable, stableelements are properly motivated and organised in the machinery becomes necessary to withstandand survive the changes and upheavals caused because of change of Governments. Superioreducational management in fact is so basic to the satisfactory functioning of democracy. Errors ofjudgement can be retrieved in a farm or factory but these can be fatal when we are concerned withthe moulding or ideas and values of society. An efficient and sound system of educationalmanagement is, in fact the basis of a good democracy.1.3 Nature of Educational ManagementIt is the management of educational institutions to foster teaching and learning. As a field of practice,it has some aspects in common with other fields of management, such as public administration,hospital administration and business management. As a field of study emerged first at the Teacher’sTraining College of Columbia University and was followed shortly by graduate programme ofStanford University, University of Chicago and other institutions in the U.S.A. Indian Universitiesit had its place only in the 1670s. Since the 1950s educational tration has become a field of study inits own right. As an applied field it has much in common with other applied fields such as medicine,engineering, etc. It builds upon psychology, sociology, economics, political science and otherbehavioural sciences. For the part twenty to thirty years emphasis has increased on the development2LOVELY PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY

Unit 1: Educational Management: Concept, Nature and Scope .of theory and research in educational management. Also has increased understanding of educationalorganization and the people working in them yet, there is much to be achieved.NotesWith the beginning of 1970s a new era has emerged in the field of educational management. Changeshave been taking place in all its aspects, conceptual as well as operational. At the conceptual levelnew terms, constructs and approaches are being introduced and used. Even the very nomenclatureof the field seems to be changing. The terms educational management and educational organizationare frequently being used in place of educational management.(1) Dynamic FunctionAs a dynamic function, educational management has to be performed continuously, in an everchanging environment. It is constantly engaged in the moulding of the enterprise. It is alsoconcerned about the alternation of environment itself so as to ensure the success of the enterprise.Thus, it is a never-ending function.(2) PracticabilityThe school management must not be a bundle of theoretical principles, but must provide practicalmeasures to achieve the desired objectives Whatever the objective that is decided must be madeachievable and practicable to avoid frustration.(3) Distinct ProcessManagement is a distinct process to be performed to determine and accomplish stated objectivesby the use of human beings and other resources. Different form of activities, techniques andprocedures, the process of management consists of such functions as planning, organizingstaffing, directing, coordinating, motivating and controlling.(4) Needed at All Levels of the OrganizationAccording to the nature of task and the scope of authority, management is needed at all levelsof the organization, e.g. top level, middle level and supervisory level. Like the executive thelowest level supervisor has also to perform the function of decision-making in way or another.(5) System of AuthorityAuthority to get the work accomplished from others is implied in the very concept ofmanagement since it is a process of directing men to perform a task. Authority is the power tocompel men to work in a certain manner. Management cannot work in the absence of authoritysince it is a rule-making and rule-enforcing body. There is a chain of authority and responsibilityamong people working at different levels of the organization. There cannot be an efficientmanagement without well-defined lines of command or superior - subordinate relationships atvarious levels of decision making.Management as an artAs an art, management is about carrying out organisational functions and tasks through people.This art involves the application of techniques in : human and public relations the delegation of an authority : assigning and sharing responsibilities and duties communication : including decision-making and problem-solving. managing change.Management as a scienceManagement here is concerned with establishing a philosophy, laws, theories, principles, processesand practices which can be applied in various situations, including schools.LOVELY PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY3

Educational ManagementNotesManagement as an organisationAs an organisation, management is about creating formal structures and an establishment based ona mission (or goals), objectives, targets, functions and tasks. For example, social and welfareorganisations in government management can refer to education and health services, whilst publicsecurity management services could refer to the police and military.Management as a personManagements may be seen as a person or a group of people. For example, a teacher could say ‘Theschool management has changed the timetable in the middle of the term’. This could be referring toyou, as the head alone, or to all the senior staff, or it could refer to the members of the board ofgovernors or school committee. In schools with several promoted staff a ‘senior management team’might be formed in much the same way as a government has a cabinet of ministers.Management as a disciplineIn this sense, management is a field of study with various subjects and topics. Knowledge, skills andattitudes in management can be acquired through learning, from experience and from certificatedcourses.The functions of managersWe will briefly examine five main functions of managers, namely : planning, organising, directing,supervising and evaluating.Management is a collection of processes, including such things as decision-making,problem-solving and action-planning. These processes involve the management ofresources including human, material, financial and time. These processes are alsoknown as the functions of managers.1.4 Scope of Educational ManagementBy scope, we mean the area within which functioning of educational management takes place. Thescope of educational management today is as vast as that of education itself. Any activity conduciveto the, achievement of educational goal, is a part of educational management. Such activities couldbe at the school level, at the college level, at the university level or at the control level. Anythingdone to improve the quality of education at any stage may be ranging from the supply of material,human and financial resources to the highest cultural or academic needs-comes under the scope ofeducational management. Hence we shall consider the scope of educational management under thefollowing heads.(1) Goal Development : The educational system is a sub-system of a society, and therefore thesociety not only provides human and non-human resources but also certain expectations thatthe system of education will achieve certain goal. Since society is in a constant process of change,needs of the society change an so do the goal specifications. It is necessary for the educativeprocess to be responsive to these changing expectations and it is through the educationalmanagement system that persons involved in the process of management can continuouslyexamine, evaluate and change (if appropriate) the goals of education.(2) Programme Planning and Actualization : According to the Oxford English Dictionary, Planningis “to design some actions to be done before hand”. Philips regards it is “the process of settingin advance a pattern of action to bring about overall national policies by the closest possiblemeans and end.” Thus we can say that planning is the process of preparing a set of decisions4LOVELY PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY

Unit 1: Educational Management: Concept, Nature and Scope .for action in the future and directed towards realising some goals by the best possible means.The essence of planning is the appraisal of as many operational alternatives as possible ant thenselecting the best for launching action. “Planning selects among alternatives, explores routesbefore travel begins and identifies possible or probable outcomes of actions before the executiveand the organisation is committed to any.”NotesAccording to the Education Commission (1964-66) planning at the first two stages, i.e., nationallevel and state levels alone suffers from some deficiencies such as (i) lack of emphasis on localissues in educational development, (ii) non-involvement of educational workers, and (iii)overemphasis on expenditure-oriented programmes. Planning at the local level, i.e. collegelevel is only to offset these drawbacks. Planning at the college level does not mean that theprincipal or a few of the members of the faculty prepare the plan for various activities of thecollege. Instead it is a cooperative endeavour of all those who are involved in the implementationof the plans-not only members of the faculty, teaching and non-teaching, but even the students,the parents and the local communities must be associated while planning of the programmes.The goals that are developed by the management system become the rationale for programmeplanning and actualization. Programmes represent the intended engagement opportunities forstudents who are to be educated. The responsibility for the planning and actualization ofprogrammes rests with the management system. It is therefore essential that the managementsystem should provide technological support to the educative process in the form of consultationsand services. The management system should initiate, coordinate, provide services and to be apart of these activities.(3) Organization : Organization has been a problem in the field of education. The debate over thecontrol of education has over and again raised the salient issue of how educational machineryshould be best organised, politically, professionally and administratively. Here too, as in severalother vital areas, education is handicapped by tradition. If conventional biases and prejudicescan be replaced by decisions made logically and scientifically,
