Lets take a quick look
Necessary & Unnecessary items are mixed together in
the same workplace
Necessary & Unnecessary items had been seperated
within identified work area (including inventory)
Only Necessary supplies, tools and items are
stored in the Work Environment.
The school head is responsible
for developing this appreciation
of resources and the involvement
of everyone in their
management.
Resources have to be looked
after properly. The school
delegates this responsibility and
monitors the performance of the
individuals concerned
Resources which are purchased
from school funds require
special attention
For this reason the head
usually delegates authority and
responsibility to key teachers
and members of the support
staff, and ensures the provision
of storage and appropriate
management.
----better planning to identify resource needs
and how they may be satisfied.
----better pre-service, in-service and on-the-
job training for those who use resources
-----more effective use of storage
facilities
----more accurate and punctual
maintenance of all resource
records
----closer supervision and more
accountability of both staff and
pupils.
In every school there should always be an
emphasis on improving the conditions for
pupil-learning which will in turn depend on
teacher self-development, motivation and
commitment.
Good, available resources will lead to
greater satisfaction amongst both pupils
and staff..
In order to accomplish this the
school head must plan, anticipate,
consult, supervise and act in a
timely manner to ensure all the
resources which are required are
identified, developed and fully
used in a responsible manner.
