Abstract

An indication is given of recent developments of management training provision in relation to schools and further and higher education in England and Wales. As Local Education Authorities and providing institutions seek to grasp the new opportunities implicit in changed financial arrangements for in‐service training, four issues are identified as being in contention: 1. the relative merits of long award‐bearing courses and more flexible, but less expensive, short courses; 2. the most appropriate target group; 3. the relevance or otherwise of industrial management models; and 4. the evergreen issue of orientation to practice. The discussion is focussed on the situation in England and Wales; the issues may be perceived to be of wider significance.

Abstract

The management and leadership of education provide formidable challenges and new opportunities due to the constant changes taking place all over the world. There are several factors giving rise to this change, such as the relationship between education and the world of employment, and the ever‐expanding growth of knowledge and education technology. It is therefore not surprising that attention is currently being given internationally to the problems of educational administration. This article examines administration as a process, and the role of the educational administrator as a leader.

Abstract

Suggests that it is reasonable to expect researchers in the field of educational administration to establish the relative value of the knowledge they propound. Draws on the branch of philosophy devoted to the study of the nature of knowledge; epistemology. Argues for new forms of awareness, criteria and processes to help with the growth of trustworthy knowledge. Concludes that there is a need for a post‐paradigm approach that celebrates coherence and multi‐perspectivism.
