Description

A resource handbook for senior education managers: how should a ministry of education which has only a small group of staff be organised? Officers must become multi-functional; but what tasks should be grouped together and how? What styles of management are needed for the highly personalised nature of small states, in which individuals have multiple out-of-work relationships as well as formal in-work ones? How can small ministries best manage the demands of region and international linkages? Experiences have been distilled and analysed, and are presented in a lively and readable format for both administrators and trainers. The companion study, "Ministries of Education in Small States", contains 14 case studies.
