Description:
Since education is people oriented, managing the human resources gains a greater importance in school management. Many research reports point out that only optimized human contribution can bring efficiency in this sector. To ensure quality education, governments must pay attention to a number of factors such as compensation and other service conditions that affect teachers' performance. This paper is an integral part of the doctoral dissertation – ‘A study of Management Practices of Secondary Schools'. The objective of the present study is to analyze emerging issues related to teacher management at secondary level of schooling. A sample of 188 secondary schools – about 34% of the population in Krishna district of Andhra Pradesh in India, was selected through stratified sampling technique. The primary data was collected through self designed questionnaire and interview schedules. Chi-Square Test and simple percentages were used to analyze the data with the help of SPSS-19. The findings reveal that the existing compensation system evokes a satisfactory response from public sector and aided teachers while a contrary feeling was recorded among unaided staff. The present system of transfers in public sector schools was satisfactory where as the promotion and the employee welfare schemes were the points of concern
