An evaluation of the management of the selection process for educators at primary schools in the North West Area : theoretical and practical implications / A.T. Aphane

The aim of the research is about the evaluation of the management of the selection for
educators at a primary school in the North West, Klerksdorp District and to consider
theoretical and practical implications. Questionnaires were used as the main measuring
instrument.
The findings of the research revealed that some of the role players lack necessary skills
and expertise to be part of the selection process. Policy implications were found to have
an effect on the process. Nepotism, poor communication, selection of correct candidates,
roles played by different role players, information dissemination during the process,
effectiveness of the selection process, lack of preparations before the selection process
begin and composition of the selection panel, were found to be present.
The conclusions from the findings indicated that, selection should be considered as a
serious process and stakeholders should ensure that they play their roles according to the
policy that governs the process. Recommendations included the following: training of the
stakeholders should be taken into consideration, nepotism and other unfair practices
should be avoided, information distribution and communication should be improved, and
effectiveness during the process should be emphasized as well as the composition of the
selection panel. Future research should be on further enhancement of the selection
process to be effective and efficient taking into consideration the needs of different
societies and the nation as a whole. / (MBA) North-West University, Mafikeng Campus, 2006
