Title: School-based management as school reform
First published: 1995
Description: Among the most pervasive of school reform theories is school-based management (SBM), and for anyone searching for a clear, thorough explanation of SBM, this book is the answer. Murphy and Beck systematically lead you through the definitions, premises, and types (structural and political) of SBM. The authors give a historical perspective and analysis of the movement, including a discussion of the recurring cycles of centralization and decentralization. They also examine the domains of SBM activity, including goals, budget, curriculum and instruction, personnel, and organizational structures.
