Local Management of Schools: Rationality and Decision-Making in the Employment of Teachers.

Huckman, Lynda; Hill, Tim

Oxford Review of Education, v20 n2 p185-97 1994

Examines the use of rational planning techniques in five English elementary schools. Discusses the decision-making processes used to determine the employment and remuneration of teachers. Finds that the decree of control over decision making was related closely to the extent to which decisions would contribute to solutions of other school problems. (CFR)
