MANAGING PRIVATE SCHOOLS FOR BUSINESS AND ACADEMIC ACTIVITIES WITHOUT COMPROMISING STANDARDS FOR PROFIT

Abstract

The article is an opinion paper. It presents a sort of business education to school owners and administrators who may wish to do business by establishing schools. The paper gives a comprehensive discourse on how to manage school business without compromising standard educational practices. In the article, the author identifies inevitable factors such as ethics, staff personality, organizational intelligence and behaviour as core in doing school business. Through analytical discourse, he explains how these and other factors such as staff discipline, communication, recruitment, enrolment, availability of facilities and funding can impact the success or failure of establishing schools for academic and business. It was specifically concluded and emphasized that schools can only be established and managed for academic and profit, if owners of schools do not undermine regulations regarding establishment and management of school as lay down by government's regulatory bodies. Failure to adhere to such regulations will result in compromising standards for profit.
