Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the practicalities of school management, shedding light on the complex social issues that often arise in schools and school systems. The author argues that the primary function of any educational institution should be to train youth into social efficiency. Therefore, the practical problems which arise in managing such an institution are primarily social problems that deal with people in relation to one another. These problems are daunting and multifaceted, and they often center around finding the balance between the individual and common needs of the students within the school. Ultimately, the insights in this book emphasize the paramount importance of viewing education as a multifaceted social process, and not simply a matter of imparting knowledge. It advocates for creating school environments where students are empowered to think critically and engage in meaningful activities that prepare them for active participation and leadership in society.
