Resource Management

Author: Edited by Simon Hughes

Resource Management, edited by Simon Hughes, is written for all subject leaders interested in managing resources more effectively and efficiently in their school.

The role of the subject leader is subject to continual change and development. They are expected to operate in a culture that is more and more like a business – the concept of an educational marketplace is increasingly being discussed.

Resource Management will help you to:

• Achieve effective financial management: we provide guidance on how you can make the most of the resources available to you.

• Use theory to make practical improvements in your school: make improvements to current practice – and be aware of the positive impact this can have on learning.

• Understand time as your most valuable resource: we suggest strategies for more effective and efficient time management – for you, your team and your pupils.

• Cope with the complexities of managing people: we help you maintain staff morale and a general sense of well-being.
