Definition of Administration
The word administration is composed of two words “ad” means to and “ministraire” means
serve, so as one word it gives meanings to serve. In French, ‘minister’ is the one who takes
responsibility. In Urdu, Persian and Arabic administration means a sequence, order,
concentration and attention for the utilization of resources. As a concept educational
administration is helpfully taking the responsibility for facilitating the processes relating to
students, teachers, and the institution. Different educational experts have defined educational
administration according to their own perception.
Stephen P. Robbins is of the opinion that administration is getting the things done from others
with effectiveness and efficiency.
Effectiveness is defined as doing the right thing as it means achieving the objectives through
completing the right job. If a school administrator is successful in achieving what is supposed to
be achieved then he/she is an effective school administrator.
Efficiency is defined as doing thing right as it is concerned with achieving objectives of the
school by reducing cost and time. If a school administrator is successful in saving time and
money resources then he/she is an efficient school administrator.
Functions (Uses) of School Administration
Smooth operation of an education institution requires competent administrators. Educational
administrators provide direction, leadership and day to day management of educational activities
in schools.
Educational administrators set educational standards and goals and establish the policies and
procedures to carry them out. They also supervise managers, support staff, teachers, counselors,
librarians, coaches, and others. They develop academic programs, monitor student’s educational
progress; train and motivate teachers and other staff, manage guidance and other student services
administer record keeping, prepare budget, handle relations with parents, prospective and current
students, employers and the community and perform many other duties.
Educational administrators (school principals) set the academic tone and hire, evaluate and help
to improve the skills of teachers and other staff. Principals confer with staff advise, explain, or
answer procedural questions. They visit classrooms, observe teaching methods, review
instructional objectives, and examine learning materials. They actively work with teachers to
develop and maintain high curriculum standards, develop mission statements, and set
performance goals and objectives. Principals must use clear objectives and guidelines for
teachers appraisals because pay often in private schools is based on performance ratings.
Principals also meet and interact with other administrators, students, parents, and representatives
of community organizations. Parents, teachers, and other members of the community play an
important role in setting school policies and goals. Principals must pay attention to the concerns
of these groups when making administrative decisions.
Principles prepare budgets and reports on various subjects including finances and attendance;
oversee the requisitioning and allocation of supplies. As school budges becomes tighter, many
principals are more involved in public relations and fund raising to secure financial support for
their schools from local businesses and the community.
Principals must take an active role to ensure that students meet national academic standards.
Many principals develop school partnerships and school-to-work transition programs for
students. Growing enrollments, which are leading to overcrowding at many existing schools, also
are a cause for concern. When addressing problems of inadequate resources, administration
serves as advocates for the building of new schools or the repair of the existing ones.
Schools continue to be involved with students’ emotional welfare as well as their academic
achievement.
