School Management

 The School Management course focuses on developing effective school leaders by acquainting Student Teachers with a number of management skills. Where the teachers’ role is to plan, organize, and implement classroom activities, they can use their effective managerial skills to help the head teachers manage school-wide activities. They can contribute effectively to building schools as professional learning communities by creating a shared vision, fostering collaboration in learning, and challenging their own as well as their students’ conventional assumptions, values, and beliefs. In addition, teachers can contribute to school management while monitoring and evaluating teaching, learning, pastoral care, and co-curricular activities that fall within their purview. Another benefit to including the School Management course in the B.Ed. (Hons) programme is that some Student Teachers may take up the role of head teacher in a public elementary school after completing their studies. They should be well versed in the knowledge and skills required for managing schools effectively.
