Strategic Planning in Education: Some Concepts and Steps
- Share to:
the context of national education development, the term of strategic
planning is increasingly referred to. First, one may wish to plan and carry out
all the activities deemed needed, but without achieving the ultimate goals.
Furthermore, more resources do not necessarily stand for the best results. The
way one uses these resources can lead to a different level of benefits. Thirdly,
it has become more and more difficult to plan everything one would wish to
do. One ought to make choices, often tough ones, through a balanced
decision-making, trade-offs across the system and consensus building process.
There are a variety of approaches to carry out strategic planning. One cannot
say that there is a “single perfect way” to conduct it. Each institution has its
own particular interpretation of the approaches and activities in strategic
management. However, what is generic to strategic planning and management
are certain typical stages involving similar activities carried out in a similar
sequence.
Any management involves four basic stages: analysis, planning,
implementation and evaluation. In the education sector, the management
operations related to “upstream”, planning work consist of: (i) system
analysis; (ii) policy formulation; (iii) action planning.
