Higher education administration and professional leadership: A study in North East India - 2007 - p.115-124. - Jan-Mar

Educational administration is the art and science of realisation of the goals of educational policies, plans, projects, schemes and related activities involved therein. It is not only the act of day-to-day management of teaching and non-teaching staff, institutions, programmes and processes of education, but also the pursuit of educational philosophy of the society concerned as well as universal cultural values. While it has to perform the day-to-day activities and to tackle the problems encountered therein, it cannot neglect its long-term goals and commitments under the broad parameters of long-term policy perspectives. Some of the basic features of educational administration that are equivalent to the practices of public administration include, among others, vision, policy-making, planning, implementation, direction, superintendence, co-ordination, organisation, budgeting, resource-mobilisation, control and regulation. - Reproduced.
