520 _aThe major concern of education policy reforms has always been to make the delivery of educational programmes more effective. Since schools are the ultimate delivery points in the overall educational management, administration of school education in India has undergone unprecedented changes. The direction of policy reforms in management of elementary education indicated enormous efforts towards the changes that have taken place from centralized control of education to decentralized participatory management of the local people. The decentralization of administration encourages people to participate in planning and decisionmaking process. The present article brings into light that enormous efforts have been made in the past to empower people and to decentralize educational administration at district, block and village levels. Keeping in view the emerging issues and challenges of educational administration, the study attempts to analyse the current and emerging trends in the decentralization and people’s participation in the educational governance in different states of the country. The researcher has also made an effort to study the developmental course of community participation in educational governance in India. – Reproduced
