Evaluating the effect of the related schools'management means scientific and practical methods are used to judge the schools'education factors, processes and results, according to the evaluating standards, so as toimprove the schools' automatic developing.The main purpose of this article is to explore the theory of evaluating schools'management effect and enrich the practice of it, thereby, to arise the schools' attention totheir management effect. The study will cover the background, definition, content,principles, style and importance of evaluating the effect of the management of regularprimary and secondary schools.To evaluate the schools' management effect, we must stick to the followingprinciples: guidance, variable quantity for substituting, development and scientism. Theschools are encouraged to evaluate themselves and to plan their developing themselves.They are also encouraged to make reasonable use of the results of the evaluation activity.The content of the evaluation consists of two parts: educational achievements and the costof them. The education achievements include the numbers of the qualified studentsbrought up by the schools and the development of the students, teachers and the schools.The students' development always depends on the teaching conditions, quality of thestudents' resources, levels of teachers, levels of management and school culture. And allthese are different with different schools. So the original academic levels of the studentswhen they were enrolled must be put into the content of assessment. The margin by whichthe quality of the students has increased after receiving the school education ought to beconsidered the most important factor to show the effect of a school's management. Thesummative assessment must be replaced by the developmental assessment and theformative assessment. The education cost means both the direct and the indirect cost. Theratio of the achievement to the cost is the effect of the schools' management.The exploration of the assessing of the effect in regular secondary and primaryschools will help to establish a new system of allocating funds, which is based on themanaging effect of a school, find out the real relationship between the managing effectand the scale of a school, lead the principals to spend their limited funds on thedevelopment of the students, and therefore, achieve the best management effect. |
