Principles of School Organization/System 

 

Some of the main principles of school system are as follows-

(1) Human basis- School system has a direct relation with teachers, students and their parents. 

Therefore, special care should be taken in this that this human base should not be violated in the system, because as soon as this base ends, the school becomes a machine and no machine runs on its own without running it.

(2) Collective Responsibility- The second thing to be kept in mind in the school system is that the school is the building block of the society, that is, the school teaches the art of living in the society. 

 

In this form, both the school and the society cannot be separated from each other. Therefore, the school system should be done by keeping both society and life close to it. 

Apart from this, democratic spirit can be encouraged in the school only by providing opportunity to all the people of the society to cooperate in the school system.

(3) Co-operation – In school management, one thing is especially worth keeping in mind that the foundation of school management should be laid on the basis of co-operation between headmaster and teachers, students and parents etc. In other words, the meaning of the system should be taken to be a co-operative life.

 

(4) On the basis of exchange of views - Exchange of views means that the headmaster, teachers and students discuss together about the lack of management and correct it in the spirit of mutual cooperation.

(5) Mobility and adaptability - Following traditional conventions in management makes it complex and rigid, therefore it is essential to have dynamism in school management. 

Apart from this, as soon as there is a change in the society, it should also be changed and adapted to the society.

 

(6) Clarity and Certainty - Any kind of doubt or uncertainty is considered to be the biggest shortcoming of management, therefore it is necessary to have clarity and certainty in school management.

(7) Giving importance to everything - Sometimes it also happens that some thing in the management is neglected considering it very minor and later on the same thing takes the form of a big problem for the management.

 

(8) Considering management as a means rather than as an end – The goal of the school system is to fulfill the objectives of education, that is, school management is only a means to fulfill the objectives of education. Therefore, instead of considering it as an end, it should be considered as a means.

(9) Opportunity for self-governance - It should also be kept in mind in school management that students should be given proper opportunity for self-governance. With this, on the one hand, students will learn to work with the spirit of mutual cooperation, and on the other hand, they will also develop leadership skills.

 

(10) Effective use of physical elements – In school management, physical elements like library, building, playground, furniture, accessories and money etc. should be used.
