Leadership in schools and its Impact in grade twelve (12) results in Sekgosese West Circuit (Botlokwa) in LimpopoMorifi, Tshebedi Johannes January 2012 (has links)
Thesis (M.Dev.) --University of Limpopo, 2012 / This study explores leadership in schools and its impact in grade twelve results
productive school culture, and focuses on school leadership at selected schools in the
Sekgosese West Circuit at Capricorn District in the Limpopo Province. Leadership
plays a vital role in the functioning of any organisation, be it in business or in
education, and the concept of leadership has become more prominent over the last
decade. In order to develop a better understanding of leadership, a literature review is
conducted. This review highlights the differences between leadership and
management, and explores different leadership styles.
This study finds that leadership challenges pose a serious threat to the attainment of
good results in grade twelve (12) in Sekgosese West Circuit. These challenges
emanate from a variety of factors such as lack of discipline, dysfunctional School
Management Team, Involvement of parents, culture of teaching and learning,
curriculum and possible solutions to leadership.
Further, administering schools in a democratic fashion still pose tremendous
challenges to the school leadership as a whole. It seems as if some schools which are
part of this investigation still struggle to adjust to a democratic dispensation. This
research therefore concludes that school leaders need to ensure that they are both good
managers and effective leaders. They must also ensure that the culture at their schools
is conducive for teaching and learning.

The role of school management teams in human resource management in selected township schools in the Mpumalanga Province / Nhlapo Job MphikeleliNhlapo, Job Mphikeleli January 2008 (has links)
Education in South Africa faces many challenges; among them is the betterment of teaching and learning in order to improve the performance in schools, particularly in township schools where the results of learners are still not up to the required standard. For schools to function effectively, the School Management Teams (Principal, Deputy Principal, HODs), need to understand the importance of the effective management of human resources. The proper and effective management of people cannot be neglected if the schools as organisations want to attain their goals. School Management Teams as managers of schools are accountable for the effective running of the schools and the task of proper management of human resources rest on their shoulders. In this study an investigation into human recource management in selected township schools in the Gert Sibande Region (Mpumalanga Province) was done. Central to the study is the School Management Team's (SMTs) understanding of the concepts management and leadership, human resource management and related aspects. An investigation was also done regarding the knowledge, skills and strategies needed to improve education in township schools. With regard to the proper training of SMTs, various recommendations are made to expose them to more rigorous training, especially in Human Resource Management as this is the cornerstones of effective school management. / Thesis (M.Ed.)--North-West University, Vaal Triangle Campus, 2009.

Vägen mot toppen : en kvalitativ studie om kvinnligt karriärsbortfall / The way to the top : a qualitative study of women’s career dropWimby, Fanny, Gillholm, Sofie January 2014 (has links)
Uppsatsens har som avsikt att behandla ämnet könsfördelning inom ledningsgrupper i bolag.Detta genom att belysa de läckor som teorin “The leaky pipeline” tar upp som orsaker till attkvinnor i större utsträckning än män inte når de högre positionerna inom organisationer. Vilkametoder som skall användas för att nå en jämnare könsfördelning är en fråga som ständigtdiskuteras och debatteras. Det råder delade meningar om hur man bör gå till väga och ämnetär på många sätt högaktuellt. Då ingen av sidorna hittat ett tillräckligt bra tillvägagångssätt föratt lösa situationen anser vi att det vore intressant med en fördjupning i detta ämne. Vi harupprättat en litteraturgenomgång, teori samt en kvalitativ studie för att finna samband och eneventuell lösning.Syftet med uppsatsen är att med hjälp av individer på ledande positioner i organisationer få enförståelse kring orsaken till att kvinnor faller bort i sin karriär oftare än män, samt hur dettakan motverkas. Resultatet av vår studie visar de olika läckor som återfinns i teorin “The leakypipeline” och de tillvägagångsätt som kan användas för att motverka dessa. Vi identifierar deredan givna läckorna: exkludering, brist på motivation och stöttning från organisationen, menser även att läckan, brist på erfarenhet, bör finnas i teorin. Den läckan som beskriver bortfalltill följd av barnafödande och familjeliv ser vi blir svagare vilket tyder på att gamla strukturersuddas ut. / This paper seeks to address the topic “gender distribution in corporate management teams”and highlight the leaks in the theory "The leaky pipeline". The theory brings up reasons towhy more men then women reach the higher positions within organizations. Which methodsthat should be used to achieve a better gender balance is an issue that is constantly discussed.There are differing views on how to reach a solution. Since it is such a highly topical subjectthat is still not solved we felt it would be interesting to delve into it. We have chosen toprepare a literature review and theory to try to find a connection with the qualitative study wehave done in the context of the essay.The purpose of this paper is that with the help of individuals in leadership positions inorganizations gain an understanding of why women fall out in their career more often thanmen, and how it can be countered. The results of our study show the various leaks appearingin the theory The leaky pipeline and the procedures that can be used to counter them. Weidentify the already given leaks: exclusion, lack of motivation and jacking from theorganization, but also see that the leak “lack of experience” should be included in the theory.The leak that addresses failures due to childbearing and family life are become weaker,suggesting that old structures are being blurred.This paper is written in Swedish.

Perceptions of school management teams (SMTs) with regard to health and well-being of farm schools/public schools on private property (PSPP) / by Oremeng Lawrens MashokoMashoko, Oremeng Lawrens January 2007 (has links)
This study was undertaken in five (5) farm schools in the Maquassi Hills Area Project Office (APO) with the intention to assess whether the School Management Teams (SMT's) are given necessary guidance to deal with health and well-being of schools. The Constitution of South Africa stipulates that human values (dignity, freedom and equality) form the most important challenges that condone and maintain that a safe and discipline environment should be created for effective teaching and learning.
Focus group interviews were conducted to gather information which was relevant to the study. The findings show that SMT's of farm schools have problems with the managerial tasks as well as the functional tasks of schools' daily activities. The researcher infers that both the landowners and the DoE must ensure that electricity and water is provided where contractual agreements exist, as power affects the usage of visual aids and administering school businesses.
The Department of Education (DoE) has no legal structure within which farm schools should operate to guarantee equal educational opportunities, and create a positive disciplined schools where learners and educators not only know what is expected, but feel secure. The officials who are responsible for the dispatch of learning support materials (LSM) hold the
SMT's back in assigning duties to the educators because of lack of LSM. The study shows that the official seem to be ignorant of basic education to farm school learners, and how the DoE manages farm schools, reflects how it still clanged to the red-tape of funding farm schools. Other essentials like water and phones are not given attention to communicate problems that need immediate attention like illness, danger or accident. Learners still have to travel long distances which is a safety thread.
The researcher eludes that it is in the interest of the landowners and the DoE that the conditions that prevail on farm schools should not impede with the work of the SMT's. The landowners and the DoE should come to a consensus in making the school environment for SMT's inviting. The DoE through school-based support teams from Area Project Office (APO) should support SMT's and guide them in managerial tasks. / Thesis (M.Ed.)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2008.

Effect of organisational policies on school management teams' job performance at Maluti District, Eastern Cape , South AfricaLeboea, Paulos Dipholo January 2016 (has links)
Most school management teams (SMTs) do not do their tasks either due to lack of time or inability to fulfil this obligation. Should this be true for South African schools, it would reflect negatively on the SMT job performance. This led to undertaking research in order to ascertain the fit between organisational policies of induction, mentoring, curriculum assessment training and curriculum supervision and the SMT job performance by way of establishing the effect of organisation policy on SMTs’ job performance. The research adopted a descriptive survey research design of the correlational type. Two sets of questionnaires, one for independent variables and the other for the dependent variable, were used to elicit information from the respondents. Some of the findings show that aspiring SMT members need some training so as to know what will be expected of them to do once they get selected as SMT members. It was further proven that common tests that are normally set at the provincial and district and/or school based levels are invariably not of the standard that the Department of Basic Education (DBE) prescribes nationally. The foregoing led to the conclusion that the SMT job practice is invariably not informed by the relevant organisational policies. Hence a cascade model of SMT training is recommended, as is the notion that training toward organisational policies under review should be done cohesively.
