This study looks into the meaning and condition for management of education program and budget compilation in elementary schools in order to search for effective ways to manage the education program and budget compilation for efficiency of school management. The study set a goal of researching effective management plans by looking into the current status of education program and budget compilation of elementary schools. In order to attain the goal, the following questions were made.
1. What is the analysis standard for the search of effective education program and budget compilation?
2. What are the current status and the problems of education program and budget compilation in elementary schools according to the analysis standard?
3. What are the reasonable ways to improve for effective management of education program and budget compilation?
For the study, relevant literatures were investigated and in-depth interviews were done. As for the investigation of literatures, the study looked into theory of education program, theory of school budget, contents/effect of the new school account system, and current status of education program and budget compilation along with previous studies. The in-depth interviews were done on 9 teachers and employees at the administration office in 3 public elementary schools of D County, Chungcheohgnamdo.
When the results from the study were summarized according to the analysis standard, they are as the followings.
1. It is concluded that there should be concrete and flexible principle and basis that are appropriate for the school as an effective way to manage the education program and budget compilation.
2. There should be a training plan for whole members as a way to manage establishment of plans and procedure for education program and budget compilation. The training should be diverse and realistic. Also, a small committee needs to be formed for active operation and even the members of the small committee should be well informed and notified so that they can learn to run the committee well.
3. As for effective management of process of education program and budget compilation, the members of the school should try to learn and understand the work of their departments. The teachers should participate in the school management more seriously rather than taking it as one of routine works.
4. As an effective plan to evaluate results for education program and budget compilation, the schools need to increase the participant rate of the teachers through training and evaluation of training for evaluation and in-depth activities as well as flexible finance management and process of evaluation results by presenting problems so that the teachers can acknowledge the necessity of evaluation. This is known to be very effective evaluation of results for education program and budget compilation.
When we put these results together, we can see that the current status of the 4 analyses on system, plan, management, and evaluation for education program and budget compilation is negative. The followings are the effective ways of managements. First, the system should be put in a definite shape so that it could be reviewed and performed voluntarily. Second for the establishment and definition of plans, the plans should be established through reallstic and active participation such as training, operation of relevant small committee, and collection of opinions. Third for the management, the participant rate for development, role, and management of active performance ability needs to be raised. Fourth, clear and effective result precessing through voluntary interest and participation is required. Therefore, education program and budget compilation through these solutions can increase the efficiency of school management. Also, a new school management system for improvement of school education can be created.
The following suggestions could be made based on the above conclusions. There should be constant and further studies on;
1. interaction between management of education program and school management system related to school management condition along with management status
2. status of education program and budget compilation in middle schools, and management status of private schools as well as ways to improve it
3. status of education program and budget compilation in schools of large districts and ways to improve it
4. development and application of models for effective management of education program and budget compilation of individual schools.
