Abstract

School effectiveness is a global issue among education stakeholders particularly in developing countries where difficulties in delivering quality education is widespread. However, internal and external factors in schools make school outcomes unpredictable, thus making bureaucracy an effective managerial and analytical tool which can be used to examine and direct organizational structure. This study examined the mediating effect of school-based management on school climate, bureaucracy and effectiveness in secondary schools. A quantitative research of cross-sectional survey with population of 7,533 teachers was employed. Four sets of instruments were adapted and administered on sample of 350 teachers in Nigeria secondary schools through stratified random sampling of the proportionate method. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) analysis was employed to test the fitness of data in relation to constructs in the model and further confirm hypotheses generated for this study. The findings of revealed that underlying predictors were true measure of their respective constructs. There is a mediation effect of school-based management on bureaucracy and school effectiveness while other path analysis revealed that school-based management did not mediate between school climate and school effectiveness. This study expands theory on bureaucracy as bright side and validates the assertion that, bureaucracy is required in public schools.

中学校本管理对学校氛围、官僚主义和效能的中介作用

学校的有效性是教育利益攸关方的一个全球性问题，尤其是在发展中国家，提供优质教育的困难普遍存在。然而，学校的内部和外部因素使学校的结果变得不可预测，从而使官僚主义成为一种有效的管理和分析工具，可以用来检查和指导组织结构。本研究考察了中学校本管理对学校气氛、官僚主义和效能的中介作用。对7533名教师进行了横断面调查的定量研究。通过比例法的分层随机抽样，对尼日利亚中学350名教师的样本进行了四套工具的调整和管理。采用结构方程建模（SEM）分析来测试与模型中结构相关的数据的适用性，并进一步证实为本研究产生的假设。的研究结果表明，潜在的预测因素是对其各自结构的真实衡量。校本管理对官僚主义和学校效能具有中介作用，而其他路径分析表明，校本管理在学校氛围和学校效能之间没有中介作用。这项研究扩展了官僚主义作为光明面的理论，并验证了公立学校需要官僚主义的断言。
