AB  - Proposes that the improvement of educational management practices
at the operational level requires the adoption of an approach based on
needs analysis, evaluation, and training. Assumes that educational
managers are accountable to the public for their actions and performance
and that they seek improvements in the quality of the educational
services they provide and stresses the importance of understanding and
attempting to measure the results of such services. This in turn
requires an analysis of educational programme dynamics and the
limitations upon managers in working to achieve increases in service
quality. In constructing a training scheme aimed at management
improvement, this aspect is referred to as a “needs analysis based
on programme dynamics”. Identifies factors involved in the design
of a training scheme for educational administrators, namely: needs
analysis based on programme dynamics: key competences for
administrators: training design: a HRD agenda: and an implementation
plan. Discusses only the first of these, given the current constraints
of time and space, with the other factors being the subject of a
subsequent article.
