The school management, lights and shadows

Abstract

School management is a key element for teaching and the results of the schools. The model of management must be consistent with the school model. Leading a school is a completely different profession from teaching. The director of a school has some functions and responsibilities, whose performance requires some specific skills and competences.  An independent school that has a project-based management needs a director with a strong, pedagogical, transformational and emotional leadership. The administration project is a requirement and a tool for each director to plan, to keep track and to evaluate the development of their functions.
