No research has been undertaken in South Africa on
meetings within the context of school management.
In this research meetings within the context of the
educational system have been studied, with special reference
to meetings at local management level. These meetings,
which are related to the involvement of various social
structures and the creation of an educational field, are
influenced by a number of natural and cultural factors and
basic motives.
Due to the number of parties involved and the variety of
tasks that have to be performed, formal education must be
managed effectively. Management takes place at different
levels. Education Departments function at the second level
and the management bodies of schools at the third. Meetings
are an important managerial aid on school level and are
essential for effective planning, organising, guidance and
control. The sound management of school meetings is
essential and unique.
Legal regulations of meetings are very important. Judicial
provisions relate mainly to good order at meetings, the legal
relationship between the members concerned and the validity
of decisions and relevant acts. Binding juridical
requirements relate especially to the people who perform the
relevant acts, the procedures that apply to discussions
and decision making and the aims of the relevant acts.
These aspects have been studied in order to obtain a clear
perspective of the essence and structure of school management
meetings and the juridical regulations of meetings in order
to formulate criteria for the educational practice. In
conclusion certain recommendations and suggestions for further
research are made. / Proefskrif (DEd)--Unisa, 1991
