This document discusses the evolution of educational leadership and management. It defines leadership as focusing on vision, values, and influence to create change, while management maintains current operations through administration and routine tasks. Educational administration has evolved from management to encompass leadership. Effective administrators are good at both leadership and management. The document also examines concepts of decentralization, which devolves power to schools, and instructional leadership, which targets student learning through teachers.
Formative supervision is a process used by educational administrators to improve instruction in the classroom and student learning. It involves classroom visits, goal setting, follow-up visits, mentoring, coaching, feedback, and professional development opportunities. The primary goal is to continuously improve instruction in each classroom, as this is how administrators can indirectly impact student learning. Effective supervision aims to enhance teachers' instructional skills through behavioral changes.
Expeditionary Learning aims to create an environment that allows every student's genius and potential to grow in three key ways:
1) Ensuring all students feel cared for and that their names are "safe" in the mouths of others through activities like morning meeting and community circles.
2) Giving learning real-world purpose through guiding questions, stories, and service learning that help students engage with their community.
3) Viewing each student's differences and needs as opportunities to tailor instruction, using routine assessment to plan responsive teaching across flexible learning arrangements and assignments.

Administration refers to the group of individuals who are in charge of creating and enforcing rules and regulations, or those in leadership positions who complete important tasks.Administration is defined as the act of managing duties, responsibilities, or rules.
This document discusses school personnel management and classification. It describes the different types of personnel including administrative, teaching, and non-teaching staff. Administrative personnel include principals and head teachers, with duties like assigning teacher loads and building community relationships. Teaching personnel are those engaged in actual teaching, such as teachers and special education teachers. Non-teaching personnel include guidance counselors, librarians, bus drivers, cooks, and others who support school operations and students.

Instructional leadership focuses on improving teaching and learning, while administrative leadership deals more with managerial tasks. Principals wear many hats and must balance these roles. However, principals often spend little time on instructional leadership due to other duties and a lack of training in this area. Good instructional leadership involves setting goals, monitoring lessons, allocating resources to support instruction, and understanding the classroom perspective. It transforms a school by articulating a vision, being supportive and empowering, and promoting change to benefit students. The characteristics of good instructional leadership include knowledge of change management, confidence, communication skills, and enthusiasm for bringing stakeholders together to improve outcomes.
Assessment is the systematic gathering and analysis of information about student learning or program effectiveness. It is used to improve student learning outcomes and inform instruction. Assessment includes tests, but also broader methods of evaluating student progress, skills, knowledge and motivation. The key purposes of assessment are to improve student learning, inform teaching, and evaluate program results against objectives. Assessment can be formative, summative, or for diagnostic purposes. Authentic assessment evaluates students' ability to apply skills in real-world contexts through tasks and projects.

Concepts of administration and supervisionShah Francis
This document discusses concepts of educational administration and supervision. It defines administration as achieving goals through collective human effort and an enabling environment. Educational administration involves managing resources, guiding institutions, and evaluating educational efforts. Supervision is described as stimulating, guiding, improving, and encouraging teachers to achieve excellence. The document outlines the scope of school administration and supervision according to various authors, including activities like staff selection, organization, facilities management, instruction, and public relations. It compares traditional and modern approaches to administration and supervision, noting modern approaches recognize child development, are objective and cooperative, emphasize principles over techniques, and consider holistic teaching-learning factors.

Explain two main differences between educational administration and education management.
Education in Sri Lanka aims to promote democracy, moral, physical, and spiritual development through lifelong learning while developing an understanding of culture and religious heritage. Historically, monasteries and temples provided education to Buddhist clergy and villagers in reading, writing, and practical skills. Under colonial rule, European powers introduced schools teaching Christianity in their respective languages. Today, Sri Lanka provides free education at all levels through a system of government, national, provincial, and private schools culminating in university degrees.

This document contains notes from a lecture on organizational structures and concepts. It discusses different types of organizational structures such as line, functional, and line and staff structures. It also defines key concepts related to organizing such as formal and informal organization, and the components of a business corporation including owners/investors, board of directors, officers, and employees. The document provides examples and descriptions of different bases for building organizations and approaches to scientific management.
Action research is a type of research conducted by teachers and administrators to improve the quality of their decisions and address immediate problems in education. It focuses on applying solutions in a local setting rather than developing theory. Key characteristics include addressing classroom-level practice problems through a scientific process aimed at immediate application and improvement of school practices through individual and group involvement. The objectives of action research are to create democratic values, study and improve the working system of schools, develop teacher skills, raise student performance, and eliminate traditional rigidity. Common areas that action research addresses include teaching methods, audio-visual aids, homework systems, discipline, absenteeism, and administrative problems. The main steps of action research are to identify a problem area, select a specific
Brazil's education system is overseen by a network of federal, state, and local authorities. It includes free primary and secondary education that is compulsory between ages 6-14. Higher education includes bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees offered at universities and technical colleges. Teacher training involves tutors supervising teacher trainees during their practice teaching in local schools. While education spending exceeds 5% of GDP, challenges include low teacher pay, large class sizes, and lack of access in some areas.
Institutional planning involves an educational institution preparing a development and improvement plan based on its needs and available resources. The plan is meant to optimize resource utilization and improve the school's program and practices. Objectives of institutional planning include providing equal opportunities, improving the institution's structure, giving direction to its functioning, and developing a comprehensive improvement program through optimal use of existing resources. The process involves assessing needs, preparing long- and short-term plans through committees, and systematically working to achieve educational objectives. Benefits are that it makes planning more democratic and realistic by involving teachers in the process.
Curriculum policy is less discussed Topic though it is the Most needed issue of today. As The concept of curriculum is as dynamic as the changes that occur in society. In its narrow sense,
curriculum is viewed merely as a listing of subject to be taught in school. In a broader sense, it refers to the total learning experiences of individuals not only in schools but in society as well.
There are three main types of education administration: preschool, elementary/secondary school, and college/university. Preschool administration typically involves a single director who oversees the curriculum, finances, and staffing. Elementary/secondary school administration is led by a principal who represents the school and supports student achievement. College/university administration has a larger scope and is headed by a president and governing body who manage finances, projects, and academic programs. Specific roles include department deans and administrators who ensure policies are implemented.
This document discusses educational leadership and management. It defines educational management as the field concerned with operating educational organizations, based on sociology, political science, economics, and general management. Management is differentiated from educational leadership, which involves policy formulation and organizational transformation. Successful management requires clear links between aims, strategy, and operational management. The document also discusses instructional leadership, which focuses leadership influence on student learning through teachers. It involves defining the school mission, managing instructional programs, and promoting school climate.
This document contains course notes for the course "Management and Leadership in Education". Topic 11 discusses leadership in schools. It defines leadership and identifies key traits and skills of effective leaders, such as self-confidence, integrity, and conceptual skills. The notes explain different theories of leadership, including transformational leadership and the path-goal theory. Transformational leaders inspire followers through idealized influence, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration. The document also distinguishes between the roles of an administrator and a leader, noting that leaders emphasize adaptive change while administrators focus on stability and efficiency.

Challenges in leading and managing people in educational institutions are worthwhile indicators that require constant checks and adjustments. These verifications are necessary because humans are complex beings and whose thinking faculties are not fixed and often guided by situational and environmental factors. Consequently, they must have divergent views which may pose unpredictable problems to administrators. Only very smart and ardent leaders maybe quick to detect, withstand and overcome such inevitables. The need for such challenges to be identified and controlled before they galvanize subordinates into negative behavioral tendencies cannot be under-estimated. This paper therefore examined possible challenges which may manifest as impediments or hindrances to the effective leading and managing of people in educational institutions in Cameroon. A number of challenges were examined and discussed in the paper. Suggestions for ways of checking and controlling the challenges have been made to serve as a reservoir of checks and guides for school administrators and leaders. The paper cautions school managers to be tactful and apply modern charismatic approaches in the control, directing of staff and managing of their institutions.
The document discusses criteria for selecting a curriculum leader and their responsibilities. Key points:
- A curriculum leader should have expertise in curriculum development as well as strong relational skills like effective communication and ability to build consensus. They are responsible for leading the curriculum process through facilitation and organization.
- The curriculum leader can be appointed internally from the school or externally. They must establish credibility and understand the school's culture. Their role must be clearly communicated.
- The curriculum leader's responsibilities include relational leadership to engage stakeholders, subject matter expertise, and managerial skills to plan and facilitate the work. Their goal is successful completion of the curriculum process through collaboration.
Educational leadership involves values, ethics and morals. It focuses on influencing others through communication to accomplish meaningful goals. Effective leaders model a range of behaviors including creating a supportive environment where people can grow and promoting harmony. Leadership distinguishes from management in that leaders focus on long term goals and substance over process, while managers focus on the present organizational performance and short term goals. Leadership involves skills such as problem solving, decision making and interpersonal skills.
The document discusses the nature of management and leadership in organizations. It defines management as planning, directing resources, and accomplishing goals. Key management functions include identifying objectives, developing plans, organizing work, motivating employees, and controlling results. The document also examines different managerial roles including interpersonal roles of figurehead, leader, and liaison. Informational roles involve monitoring and communicating information. Decisional roles include making decisions as an entrepreneur, conflict handler, and resource allocator. Different leadership styles are also discussed, including transformational leadership focused on change and emotional leadership that engages employees' emotions.
1) The purpose of education is to build productive community members with critical thinking skills to succeed in life. Struggles in school often lead to poverty, incarceration or dependence on welfare.
2) Effective leadership comes from influence, not position. It involves sharing expertise laterally across schools and districts.
3) Collective moral purpose, the right leaders focused on learning, building capacity through collaboration and reflection, and ongoing learning are keys to educational leadership according to Fullan's research.
Transformational leadership characteristics necessary for today’s leaderssabrinahjmohdali
This study examines the traits and characteristics of university presidents considered to be transformational leaders. The author conducted a Delphi study with a panel of 52 university president experts to identify qualities of effective leadership in higher education. The panel reached consensus that transformational leadership is needed to introduce change in higher education. Specifically, presidents need commitment, competence, and authenticity to motivate stakeholders and achieve goals amid declining funding. However, limitations include restricting the study to technical schools and corporate training programs.

Change Management in Adult Educational
Organizations: A Slovenian Case Study
Romana Martinčič
Successful implementing and managing of change is urgently necessary
for each adult educational organization. During the process, leading
of the staff is becoming a key condition and the most significant fac-
tor. Beside certain personal traits of the leader, change management
demands also certain leadership knowledges, skills, versatilities and be-
haviour which may even border on changing the organizational culture.
The paper finds the significance of certain values and of organizational
climate and above all the significance of leadership style which a leader
will adjust to the staff and to the circumstances. The author presents a
multiple qualitative case study of managing change in three adult edu-
cational organizations. The paper finds that factors of successful lead-
ing of change exist which represent an adequate approach to leading the
staff during the introduction of changes in educational organizations.
Its originality/value is in providing information on the important re-
lationship between culture, leadership styles and leader’s behaviour as
preconditions for successful implementing and managing of strategic
change.

Introduction
The only constant of the time we live in are the changes in all areas of our
life and work. They are incited by a number of factors: technological ad-
vancement, changed expectations and needs of the clients, changed mar-
ket conditions, changing of legislation, changed social values etc. (Paton
and McCalman 2000); no organization – large or small, local or global
– is immune to change (Kotter 1998b). Educational organization must
follow the opportunities and avoid the threats which occur in the con-
temporary turbulent environment. The changing of legislation and reg-
ulation of education entails change implementation in a special manner
‘from the top downwards.’ An educational organization has little or no

influence on such change. Its task is more or less to respond to change, as
it has no choice but to operate in accordance with the rules. Much more
interesting for the long term efficiency of an organization is the change
that originates from the organization itself as a premeditated, planned
activity caused by various reasons: fewer pupils and students, young or
adults, the need to improve the quality in education or to introduce new
formal or informal forms of education etc.
Several authors (Fullan 2001; Bukovec 2005; Coleman 1994; Drucker
1999; Kotter and Cohen 2003; Tracy 1999) claim that successful imple-
menting and managing of change depends on the lead ...
The school management and educational leadershipPaolaGarcia4482
School leadership and management involves leadership, administration, and management working together. Leadership can be distributed among various people in the school and is not solely the responsibility of the headmaster. Successful school leadership requires guiding the school community towards its goals through motivation and orientation. It also involves treating all members of the school with respect, encouraging trust, and promoting democratic values. Effective leadership development employs methods like mentoring, coaching, and benchmarking that are grounded in educational principles of guidance, participation, and continuous learning.
School leadership and management involves leadership, administration, and management working in tandem. Effective school leadership requires guiding the school community towards goals, motivating others, and having both pedagogical knowledge and problem-solving skills. Leadership is most effective when distributed amongst staff and involves developing trust and participation across the school. Training for educational leaders focuses on development models like coaching, mentoring, and benchmarking good practices.

School leadership and management involves leadership, administration, and management working together. Leadership can be distributed among various people in the school and is not solely the responsibility of the headmaster. Successful school leadership requires guiding the school community towards goals, motivating others, and having strong pedagogical and problem-solving skills. Leaders develop through approaches like mentoring, coaching, and benchmarking good practices from other schools.
Leadership studies is a multidisciplinary academic field of study that focuses on leadership in organizational contexts and in human life. Leadership studies has origins in the social sciences (e.g., sociology, anthropology, psychology), in humanities (e.g., history and philosophy), as well as in professional and applied fields of study (e.g., management and education). The field of leadership studies is closely linked to the field of organizational studies.
As an academic area of inquiry, the study of leadership has been of interest to scholars from a wide variety of disciplinary backgrounds. Today, there are numerous academic programs (spanning several academic colleges and departments) related to the study of leadership. Leadership degree programs generally relate to: aspects of leadership, leadership studies, and organizational leadership (although there are a number of leadership-oriented concentrations in other academic areas).
Here is an analysis of a principal I worked with using the factors of transformational leadership:
The principal displayed idealized influence through being a role model who built trust. She was honest, ethical and led by example with integrity. Followers respected her principles and values.
She provided inspirational motivation by communicating high expectations and using symbols to focus efforts on student achievement. She helped staff believe in their ability to succeed and meet challenging goals.
The principal stimulated intellectual curiosity by encouraging innovation and creativity. She supported new ideas and questioned assumptions to address problems from different perspectives.
She paid attention to individual needs through mentoring and coaching. The principal knew staff members personally and supported their development, growth and desires for advancement.
The document discusses distributed leadership, including what it is, why it is important, and how it can be implemented in schools. Some key points:
1) Distributed leadership involves sharing and extending leadership across an organization, not just from the top leader. It encourages collaboration and developing a shared vision.
2) When leadership is distributed properly through teams and engaging others' expertise, it can positively impact student outcomes and teacher effectiveness.
3) Distributed leadership takes different forms in different schools depending on needs and context, but successful implementations develop leadership at all levels through structures, roles, and collaborative ways of working.
This document provides an introduction to a dissertation on leadership. It discusses the background of the study, which involves assessing the leader-researcher's personal traits and professional skills based on evaluations from subordinates in various sectors. Specifically, it aims to determine if there is a relationship between these traits and skills, and to propose a model for dynamic leadership. The study has limitations in its scope, involving evaluations from 76 subordinates across 4 sectors. However, the results intend to provide a leadership framework that could benefit various industries including business, technology, and education.

Educational
Leadership
The field of study used to describe the organization of
educational bodies,and the activities of their principals and
senior staff, has evolved over time from:
4. What is educational management?
sociology, political
science, economics and
general management
Interpretations drawn
from different fields
emphasize diverse
aspects of educational
management
… is a field of study and practice concerned with
the operation of educational organizations.
No single generally accepted definition of Ed.
Management since its development draws on
…
5. What is educational management?
Bolam (1999, p. 194):
• defines educational management as ‘an executive
function for carrying out agreed policy’.
• differentiates management from educational leadership
which has ‘at its core the responsibility for policy
formulation and, where appropriate, organizational
transformation
Glatter’s (1979, p. 16) definition identifies the scope of the subject:
• Management studies are concerned with ‘the internal
operation of educational institutions, and also with their
relationships with their environment, that is, the communities
in which they are set, and with the governing bodies to which
they are formally responsible’.
6. What is educational management?
Educational management has to be centrally concerned with the
purpose or aims of education (Bush, 2003).
3 aspects of goal-setting in
education
formal aims
Organizational
or individual
aims
The
determination
of aims
7. What is educational management?
Formal aims
Schools or
Colleges and :
Aims are
sometimes set at a
high level of
generality
Primary or Secondary
School:
Aims might focus on
the acquisition by
each pupil of physical,
social, intellectual and
moral qualities
and skills
The international trend
towards self
management:
Managers, staff and
other stakeholders
develop a distinctive
vision for their schools
with clearly articulated and
specific aims.
8. What is educational management?
Organizational or individual aims
Some approaches to educational
management are concerned
predominantly
with organizational objectives
while other models strongly
emphasize individual
aims
Gray (1979, p. 12), stresses both
elements:
‘the management process is concerned
with helping the members of an
organization to attain individual as well as
organizational objectives within the
changing environment of the organization’.
A potential problem is that individual and organizational
objectives may be incompatible, or that organizational
aims satisfy some, but not all, individual aspirations
9. What is educational management?
The determination of aims
School and college aims are inevitably influenced by pressures
emanating from the wider educational environment and lead to
the questions about the viability of school ‘visions’
Principal
or headteacher,
often working in
association with senior
colleagues and
perhaps a small group
of lay stakeholders
a corporate activity
undertaken by
formal bodies or
informal groups
10. What is educational leadership?

of the concept of leadership

as influence
What is educational leadership?
There is no agreed definition of the concept of
leadership
12. What is educational leadership?
Leadership as
influence
• involves a social
influence process
whereby intentional
influence is exerted
by one person [or
group] over other
people [or groups] to
structure the activities
and relationships in a
group or organisation.
(Yukl, 2002, p. 3)
Cuban’s (1988) definition
shows that the influence
process is purposeful in
that it is intended to lead
to specific outcomes:
• ‘Leadership, then
refers to people who
bend the motivations
and actions of others
to achieving certain
goals; it implies taking
initiatives and risks’
13. What is educational leadership?
Leadership and vision
Beare, Caldwell and Millikan (1989) draw on the work of Bennis and Nanus (1985) to
articulate ten ‘emerging generalizations’ about leadership, four of which relate directly
to vision:
1.
Outstanding
leaders have a
vision for their
organizations.
2.
Vision must be
communicated in
a way which
secures
commitment
among
members of the
organization.
3.
Communication
of vision
requires
communication
of meaning.
4.
Attention should
be given to
institutionalizing
vision if
leadership is to
be successful.
14. What is educational leadership?
Leadership and values
• is grounded in firm personal and professional values
• Wasserberg (2000, p. 158) claims that ‘the primary role of any
leader [is] the unification of people around key values’.
• Greenfield and Ribbins (1993) add that leadership begins with the
‘character’ of leaders, expressed in terms of personal values, self-
awareness and emotional and moral capability.
Day, Harris and Hadfield’s (2001) research in 12 ‘effective’ schools in
England and Wales concludes that
‘good leaders are informed by and communicate clear sets of personal
and educational values which represent their moral purposes for the
school’
18. Administration
(American Context)
… is the broadest term related to organizational
responsibility
leadership management
focuses on efficient
use of resources
focuses on organizational
direction and purpose.
• You can have strong leaders who are weak
managers and vice versa. Strong administrators are
good at both leadership and management.
Leadership is doing the right things, management is doing
things right, and administration is responsible for both.
Paula, A. C., & William, G. C. (2013). Educational Leadership: A Bridge to Improved Practice (5th ed). Pearson. Pearson Higher Education.
19. Management:
maintenance activity
Leadership:
change
• Influences others’ actions in
achieving desirable ends;
• Focuses on ingenuity,
energy and skill.
• Leaders are people who
shape the goals,
motivations, and actions of
others and initiate change
to reach existing and new
goals
• Managing is maintaining
efficiently and effectively
current organizational
arrangements.
• Managing well often exhibits
leadership skills, the overall
function is toward maintenance
rather than change.
Cuban (1988) provides one of the clearest
distinctions and stresses importance of both:
20. Administrators
Effective leaders Efficient managers
are expected to be
seek order and
stability
seek adaptive and
constructive change
• Focus on strategic goals
(vision, mission, purpose, direction,
and inspiration);
• Guide improvement and infuse
an organization with meaning and
purpose
• Focus on making the organization
work, such as hiring,distributing resources,
and enforcing policy and procedures;
• implement plan, arrange resources,
coordinate effort, and ensure smooth
operation and routines (things get
done)
• is involved with stewardship and
accountability for all types of resources
Paula, A. C., & William, G. C. (2013). Educational Leadership: A Bridge to Improved Practice (5th ed). Pearson. Pearson Higher Education.
21. • Leadership in this new “era of change” requires
the ability to envision an improved school and
the spark to energize and lead staff to bring it
about.
• Improvement requires perseverance, nurturing,
and problem solving.
• Leaders must be entrepreneurial in the sense
that they empower employees to meet new
challenges.
22. Decentralization and self-management
Educational institutions operate within a legislative framework
set down by national, provincial or state parliaments
What is Decentralization in education?
• …. means a shift in the authority
distribution away from the central ‘top’
agency in the hierarchy of authority . . .
Different forms of decentralization are
diverse in their justifications and in what
they imply for the distribution of authority.
• One of the key aspects of such a framework is
the degree of decentralization in the
educational system
23. Decentralization and self-
management
• Decentralized systems
devolve significant powers
to subordinate levels.
Where such powers are
devolved to the institutional
level, we may speak of
‘self-management’.
• Highly centralized
systems tend to be
bureaucratic and to
allow little discretion to
schools and local
communities.
24. Decentralization can take many different forms
• Federalism: in Australia, Germany, India and the United States.
• Devolution: in the United Kingdom.
• Deregulation: in the Czech republic (Karstanje, 1999).
• Deconcentration: in Tanzania (Therkildsen, 2000).
• Participative democracy: involves strong participation by
stakeholders at the institutional level, for example in
Australia, Canada, England and Wales, and South
Africa (Sayed, 1999).
• Market mechanism: in Britain and the United States.
25. • Two or more of these
modes may coexist within
the same educational
system.
• In England and
Wales, schools and
colleges are at the
heart of ‘the
educational market
place’ with
students and
parents as
customers,
choosing from a
range of providers.
• The school-based
management
trend in many
countries (England
andWales,Australia,
New Zealand, Hong
Kong) is
underpinned by
both participative
democracy and
the market
mechanism.
• Caldwell and Spinks’s
(1992, p. 4) definition
provides a clear link
between self
management and
decentralization:
• ‘A self-managing
school is a school in
a system of
education where
there has been
significant and
consistent
decentralization to
the school level of
authority to make
decisions related to
the allocation of
resources.’
26. Instructional leadership
• …. focuses on teaching and learning and on the behaviour of teachers
in working with students. Leaders’ influence is targeted at student
learning via teachers. The emphasis is on the direction and impact of
influence rather than the influence process itself (Bush & Glover, 2002)
Hallinger and Murphy’s
(1985) instructional
leadership comprising
three broad categories:
• defining the school
mission;
• managing the
instructional programme;
• promoting school
climate.
Blase and Blase’s (1998)
effective instructional
leadership behaviour
comprises three aspects:
• talking with teachers
(conferencing);
• promoting teachers’
professional growth;
• fostering teacher
reflection.
Southworth’s (2002)
three strategies were
particularly effective
in improving teaching
and learning:
• modelling;
• monitoring;
• professional
dialogue and
discussion.
27. Conclusion
• Effective leadership and management are essential if schools and
colleges are to achieve the wide-ranging objectives set for them by
their many stakeholders, notably the governments which provide
most of the funding for public educational institutions;
• In an increasingly global economy, an educated workforce is vital to
maintain and enhance competitiveness;
• Society expects schools, colleges and universities to prepare
people for employment in a rapidly changing environment;
• Teachers, and their leaders and managers, are the people who are
required to deliver higher educational standards;
• As these environmental pressures intensify, managers require
greater understanding, skill and resilience to sustain their
institutions.
