Training and Development of Principals in the Management of Educators. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Sep 2009, Pages: 304
Preliminary research among a cross section of principals reveals the four key components necessary to manage schools effectively: The management of the curriculum; organisational structures; financial and physical resources; and educators. To be an effective school principal, one must have the necessary skills, knowledge and attitudes to successfully manage educators. The management of educators is the thrust of this book, integrating all the processes of personnel provisioning and human relations. To be effective, the principal must be adequately grounded in the theory of managing educators, to understand and utilise educators to their maximum, so that the goals of the school are achieved. Other important skills which principals require are the ability to understand, initiate and manage change in the school environment, negotiate settlements when conflicts arise and motivate staffto work productively. This book is especially useful to professionals who will be directed at establishing the competencies required by principals to manage educators effectively and then to devise a training and development programme.
