 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report provides an analysis and evaluation of the administration of a Government
school. This report consists overview of the Organization, field notes and action plans.
I have prepared this report by participating actively in a government school administration
for 6 weeks during my practicum sessions. I have analyzed and evaluated the following
important components of school administration and management and I have given action
plans to resolve problems in that components.
Financial management of schools, Physical resource management, Personnel management,
Instructional supervision, School development/improvement, School Community,
Maintaining School Records
I have analyzed and evaluated by observing these components during my practicum
sessions. I have met administrative officers, school management, school clerk and teachers
of the school for collecting information about these components.
There are so many problems in a government school. science lab is not well equipped in my
practicum site school. There is insufficient Furniture in the school. school playground is not
better to play. There is no monitoring committee to monitor teachers progress. Sometimes
school in-charge does not show equity with school staff. Some school record is not updated.
It is better that SMC fund come annually but utilization of SMC fund is not properly planned.
School management use SMC fund for purchasing unnecessary goods and sometime school
management purchase excessive goods or materials. Most of teachers in government
schools are not well trained and updated. Modern teaching methods and technology is not
used in the school. there is no admission committee in the school. No test is taken by new
students for giving them admission in the school.
The report finds the prospects of the school in its current position are not positive. The
major areas of weakness require further investigation and remedial action by management.
It is recommended:

• HM should form monitoring committee to improve teachers progress.

• HM should form admission committee to improve enrolment and school standard.
• Government should provide Professional trainings to school teachers to make them
aware with modern teaching methods and modern technology.
• HM should arrange meetings regularly with staff for school improvement.
• Modern teaching methods and technology should be used to teach the students.
• Required equipment should be purchased by SMC fund for science lab.
• A letter can be written to the concerned education authorities to provide more
furniture in the school. Damaged furniture can be repaired through SMC fund.
