Portal:Education Leadership and Management/Introduction

School education needs to provide an environment where meaningful learning takes place on a regular basis. However schools are able to accomplish their goals as learning organizations only when a wide variety of inputs and support mechanisms are adequately brought into place. Amongst the variety of inputs that schools require, is the need to closely examine schools as organizations, the role of leadership and management provided in and for a school, by the members of the school and the support agencies.

This applies even more to the school system as a whole, comprising of institutions that take responsibility for policy, academic and administrative support to schools.

Education Leadership and Management (ELM) seeks to study the roles of the different actors in the education system and how their actions and relationships can serve the aims of the system.
