Development of School - Based Management (SBM) Handbook
April D. Manallo, Vivien L. Chua
Abstract: Evidence - based reviews reveal the importance of implementing school - based management (SBM) and its various educational outcomes however, contextualizing it application through the necessity of a handbook is minimal. This study has developed an SBM (School - Based Management) handbook. The 38 - page handbook covers best practices, assessment processes, validation procedures, and stakeholder roles, anchored on four principles: Leadership and Governance, Curriculum and Learning, Accountability and Continuous Improvement, and Management of Resources. It serves as a guide, capacity - building tool, reference, and promotes stakeholder collaboration. The handbook emerged as a dynamic tool for SBM implementation, offering enhanced implementation competences, improved decision - making, increased confidence and empowerment, consistency in implementation, efficient problem - solving, facilitation of professional development, and adaptability and flexibility. It contributes to a solid SBM framework and sustainable educational practices. Through qualitative exploratory research involving 10 key stakeholders from selected secondary schools in the Division of Sorsogon, thematic analysis revealed stakeholders' experiences with SBM implementation, highlighting themes such as knowledge and comprehension, data management, stakeholder involvement, communication, and teacher development. The study underscores the significant role of awareness, data management, stakeholder involvement, communication, consistency, and teacher development for successful SBM implementation. These factors collectively contribute to establishing a solid SBM framework and sustainable educational practices benefiting students, teachers, and the broader community. Recommendations include fostering collaboration, clear communication, ongoing updates, feedback mechanisms, and further research on SBM implementation experiences. The handbook facilitates inclusive, collaborative, and sustainable SBM implementation, contributing to positive educational outcomes and organizational effectiveness. Efforts should focus on regular updates and refinements based on emerging educational trends and establishing a structured mechanism for regular updates and feedback collection from SBM implementers. This iterative process ensures the handbook's continued relevance and alignment with evolving educational settings. Further studies may explore the experiences of schools in SBM implementation, building on the present research's insights.
