CREATING AN EFFECTIVE SCHOOL-COMMUNITY BASED RELATIONSHIP

Abstract

The paper examines the recent trend in school management. it takes into account the concept of participating, cooperative and collaborative management. The informal types of education (home and apprenticeship) were initially sufficient for youth. Today however, modern diversification in technology and education, appear to have exerted some form of complex influence on the culture of the community. Given the nature of this perceived complexity, the informal education seems to be inadequate to cope with modern challenges. This calls for an urgent need to position the formal education system to facilitate effective cultural transmission in the modern age.
