SCHOOL ORGANIZATION IN A CHANGING SOCIETY
Abstract
This paper discusses the formal organization of the school in order to arrive at ways in which schools might be organized for the fuller development of children. Accepting that the key figure in school organization is the principal who must therefore provide proper leadership, it examines some leaderships styles and indicates that the participative principal is generally to be preferred. School children's perception of various aspects of school organization—rules, discipline and punishment, staff‐pupil relationships—is then discussed. A humanistic organization is then put forward with suggestions as to its implementation.
