The Study of Multi-Site School Management

Abstract

With the development of educational modernization, the number of schools that were combined or closed increased in the Chaoyang District of Beijing. At the end of 2008, two more schools were combined or closed. The total number of schools is decreasing, while other schools are expanding in size. Some of the key schools have four or more sites that are independent. Similarly, our school faces the same problem, it is increasing in size. Now we have two sites, one is an elementary school and the other is a senior school. Traditional management methods are facing the challenges of change, so how do you restructure the organization to adapt to the changes and how do you create a management system to ensure the education systems runs efficiently? These issues must be addressed by every principal who has two or more school sites to manage.
