The headmaster has large number of academic, organizational and administrative

duties and responsibilities. It can have classified at under:

 Planning

 Teaching

 Supervising and guiding

3
 Maintaining discipline

Planning in the first step in any academic and administrative assignment. The head

program with successes is required to plan his duties and function through the year.

His decided in the following stage.

i. Before opening of the school

ii. On the opening day and during the first week of the session,

iii. During the session and

iv. At the end of the session

With a view to planning effectively the headmaster should involve all including his

staff, students, guardian and parent.

The management of secondary education plays an important role in reshaping

individuals’ natural potential so as individual would be able to contribute for socio-

economic development of the country. Secondary education produces middle level

workforce and provides crop for higher education. Goel, (2005, p.3) points out that

“secondary for the economy education is a period of education which follows after

elementary education and acts as foundation for higher education.

The purpose of secondary education is to prepare the students either for obtaining

higher education or vocational training”. In fact secondary education is a streaming

stage in Pakistan, because students usually choose the future line of action for further

education. Head of Secondary schools thus have to cater the diversified needs of the

individual students and needs of productive sectors of the economy. This

diversification of curricula and importance of the secondary education have boosted

the significance of heads of secondary schools.

4
Secondary education is a sub-sector of the education system and demands amicable

management, keeping in view the major objectives of producing middle level

workforce for the economy and providing a pavement for higher education “the

quality of higher education depend upon the quality of secondary education.

Secondary education is also a stage, where a student reaches to the age of adolescence

which is the most crucial stage of life”. (GoP, NEP, 1998-2010, p.37). This situation

has also enhanced the importance of secondary education in the country.

Management is the process of coordination and managing resources in efficient and

effective manner (Robbins, 2001, p.8). According to Mathur, (2005, p.162),

management is the act, manner or practice of managing, handling, and controlling the

resources of the organization to achieve desired output. Management in education also

supposed to manage the resources efficiently in order to achieve maximum output.

According to (GoP, NEP 2009) Government of Pakistan could not develop any

standardized managerial training system for education managers in general and for

heads of secondary schools in particular at national level. The provincial governments

usually arrange training for heads teachers and teachers in provincial teachers training

institutes in their respective provinces and districts but no specific managerial training

has been designed for heads of secondary schools after their immediate promotion as

heads of secondary schools. In other words management training after promotion is

not mandatory for heads of secondary schools recognizing the importance of

managerial training for heads of secondary schools, government emphasized on in-

service training of these heads of educational institutions in various national education

policies. The government of Pakistan introduced reform in education sector. In these

reforms, special attentions have been given on the training for school based

management as well as community mobilization (GoP, ESR, 2001-2004, p.33). This

indicates recognition and strong commitment of the government to provide

management training to head teachers of secondary schools as per to their job

5
requirements for their capacity building.

The National Commission on Education (1959, p.268), advocated that “administrative

staff, headmasters, and subject specialists for multi-purpose schools should receive in-

service training through the education extension centers”. Similarly government

brought administrative reforms through devolution of power ordinance (2001) that

focuses on decentralization and participation in decision making at grassroots level.

Consequently role of heads of secondary schools has been enhanced. Being head of an

institution, s/he is vested with responsibility of informed decision making, in

planning, organizing, directing and controlling the resources for the best utilization.

Govinda, (2002, p10) highlights that head teachers are accountable for school

education programs, student support, School Council and parental involvement in the

organization of schools, and community representation of the school in proper

manners.

Advancement in informational technology and globalization changed the scenario of

the whole world. The present era of information technology and knowledge explosion

created competitive environment for heads of educational institutions for producing

high quality of manpower for the job market. In this regard, heads of secondary

schools have to play a vital role in the development of the society. This challenging

task cannot be accomplished unless and until a required managerial training facility is

provided to the heads of secondary schools. Govinda, (2002, p. 20) highlights the role

of heads has to create school environment in such manner so that uniform policy can

be adopted for the involvement of teachers and maintaining discipline in the school.

Similarly, Reddy, (2006, p.127) visualizes that heads of school is in a position to

affect attitude, social climate, morale, progress, cooperation and direction of efforts in

schools. Qureshi, & Khatoon, (2008) found that “heads of secondary school needed

training in financial management, IT skills, guidance, counseling, co-curricular

6
activities and management skills. These empirical evidences indicate that there is a

dire need for intensive management training of heads of schools. Similarly, Azra,

(1999) and Grumman, (2000) found that “head of schools have to solve various

problems of the schools, but they were facing shortage of teaching and non-teaching

staff, proper guidance, counseling and in-services managerial training is required”.

Kandasamy, & Blanton, (2004) documented an analysis of school principals functions

in Seven Asian Countries and stated various functions of school heads “personnel

management, student management, finance management, general, administrative

management, teaching responsibilities and Logistics”. These empirical evidences

show that heads required professional training for effective implementation of

government policies regarding secondary education.

CHAPTER-2
LITERATURE REVIEW

Managerial skills are required to handle managerial tasks at institutional level but due

to lack of professional training facility, the performance of heads of secondary

schools are not up to the desired level. Government of Pakistan, NEP, (2009, p. 21)

highlighted that educational management required professional standards and

expertise at various level and particularly at institutional level but educational

managers are not fully prepare to handle the educational matters in professional

manners. When a teacher is involved in the managerial takes definitely teaching

responsibilities are suffered. Therefore, in the developed countries special attention is

paid for the managerial functions of heads of the schools so that they would be able to

handle the matters of the schools without involvement of the teachers.

Recognizing the importance of training of heads of teachers NEP (2009, p.21-22)

further proposed action “a management cadre for education, with specific training and

qualification requirements shall be introduced. Head teachers shall be trained in social

mobilization to involve the community in solving problems of the schools effectively.

Hence, implementation on this proposed action is to be done by analyzing the present

scenario of management training facility and professional training requirements of

education managers in the country.

The heads of secondary schools play a vital role in qualitative improvement and

quantitative expansion of secondary education in Pakistan. Devolution plan 2001

intended to decentralize education system at district and institution level.

Consequently school based management is need of the time. So, the heads of

secondary schools have to perform much more complex roles than ever before. The

managerial tasks include; general management of school, academic management,

human resource management, financial management, office management and

9
maintaining good working relationship with community etc. These management tasks

can be more effectively accomplished after receiving proper management training.

Therefore, it is, important to assess the professional management training needs of

heads of secondary schools so that on the basis of some empirical evidences

managerial training program could be designed for their professional development.

An expanded, equitable, and high-quality education provided to every segment of

society provides hope and can lead nations in the right direction. However, a vast

majority of the world’s population that lives on the Asian continent is deprived of

even basic educational opportunities. In fact, about 420 million adults in the South

Asian regions of Pakistan, Bangladesh, and India are illiterate (Lewin, 1998). The

nations that understood the pivotal role of education in development have made

substantial investment in education and have laid the foundation of a viable socio-

economic system. Baker and Holsinger (1996) point out that countries like Pakistan,

Bangladesh, Laos, and Afghanistan have not made a huge investment either in

primary or secondary education. That is the reason these countries have not been able

to achieve the level of development witnessed in other Asian countries such as South

Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and Malaysia. The following section discusses some of the

factors that have negatively contributed to the establishment of an underdeveloped

educational system in Pakistan and the impact of this weak educational system on the

social, political, and economic aspects of the country.
