PLANNING FOR SECONDARY EDUCATION

It may be noted that if we have to undertake the planning for secondary education, the levels of decision making (i.e. planning ) may ideally be the following :

National State District Block/Taluka/Madal/Ward Institution

99

Planning for all stagesPlanning for all stages

Planning for Secondary Education…

As far as secondary education is concerned, in India at present planning is carried out only at the following three levels :

National State Institution

However, under the RMSA programme the district level planning for secondary education has been recently operationalized in the country.

1111

PLANNING AT THE INSTITUTION LEVEL

Institutional planning is the systematic and comprehensive method of achieving the objectives of the institution in an effective and efficient manner.

It may be noted that the responsibility of planning at the institution level lies mainly with the head of the institution.

However, it is important to ensure that all stakeholders are given opportunity to participate in this process.

1212

IMPORTANCE OF PLANNING AT THE INSTITUTION LEVEL

Whether planning is carried out at the national level, state level or district level, if it is not supported and supplemented by planning at the Institution level, no success can be achieved in the field of education.

In case excellent plans are developed at the National, State or District level but the Educational institutions (i.e. Schools) are not functioning properly, excellent plan documents developed at these levels will become meaningless.

1313

IMPORTANCE… Ultimate aim of planning for education is to

ensure that schools function efficiently, teachers teach regularly and children learn.

However, these things can be ensured only by the effective planning by the Institutions and their proper implementation.

So, the most critical aspects of planning for education is the planning at and by the educational institutions.

Thus, the role of Institutional Heads is very important in educational planning.

1414

INSTITUTIONAL PLANNING

There are two important objectives of planning and these are (i) rational allocation of resources and (ii) optimum utilisation of resources.

Planning at the national, state and even at the district level generally focuses only on the first objective of planning i.e. rational allocation of resources

1515

INSTITUTIONAL PLANNING…

The second objective of planning i.e. optimum utilization of resources can be met only through appropriate institutional planning.

So, focus in planning exercise carried out at the institution level may be more on ensuring optimum utilization of resources and relatively less on estimation of requirements of additional resources.

1616

INSTITUTIONAL PLANNING : OBJECTIVES

To ensure the smooth and regular running of the Institutions for un-interrupted teaching/learning process.

To improve the methods of Instruction.To improve library, Laboratory

Services and Equipments.To ensure optimum utilization of

existing facilities.

1717

OBJECTIVES…

To harness Community Resources.To involve the local community,

parents etc. to improve the school.To develop the co-curricular

programmes like games and sports, cultural programmes, social services etc.

1818

INSTITUTIONAL PLANNING : STEPS INVOLVED

Step 1 : Estimation of needs of the Institution.

Step 2 : Comprehensive survey of the existing resources.

Step 3 : Estimation about how far the existing resources (human and physical both) are utilized in the Institution.

1919

STEPS INVOLOVED…

Step 4 : Formulation of plan for Institution

- Plan not to be too ambitions- Plan should be realistic and achievable.- Prioritization of all activities to be done.

Step 5 : Estimation of additional resources required and Mobilization of resources locally.

2020

INSTITUTIONAL PLANNING : IMPORTANT POINTS

It is desired not make very ambitious plans which means it should be preferably within the reach of the institutions’ existing resources.

A prioritization should be made to decide which are the activities that need immediate action and which are the activities that can be taken later on.

Improvement in the quality of education at the institution level may be considered as the main aim of the institutional planning.

Ensuring optimum utilization of resources (human, material and financial) is key aspect of institutional planning.

2121

STEPS TO BE TRAKEN BY THE INSTITUTIONAL HEADS

Hold talks with teachers individually and then also conduct general meeting of teachers.

Hold discussion with staff to undertake a comprehensive survey of existing infrastructure in the institution. Also do a stock taking of resources available in the institution.

Involving staff in preparation of school improvement plan for the institution.

Discussion on implementation of school improvement plan.

Monitoring and Evaluation of programme implemented in the Institution.

Role of UDISE in Planning

How to Proceed ?

Few Steps to be Initiated.

Role of UDISE in planningRole of UDISE in planningRole of UDISE in planningRole of UDISE in planning1. For preparing a need based plan we required lots of data/information to achieve

the goals.

2. We have several sources of data available at state level like House Hold Survey,

Village Educational Register, UDISE system etc.

3. Using the UDISE system you can generate lots of data regarding :

1. Schools (Management / Category)

• School Grant / Minor Repair

2. Enrolment (Gender / Social Category )

• Excursion Trip

• Special intervention according to Gender Gap/ Fall in

Enrolment under different socio groups

• GER / NER / Transition Rate

Role of UDISE in planningRole of UDISE in planningRole of UDISE in planningRole of UDISE in planning1. Teacher (Trained / Untrained)

• Teacher Salary

• In-service Training

• Educational Tours etc.

• PTR

2. Infrastructural information

• Additional Teacher / Classrooms requirement

• Gaps (Library / Computer / Activity rooms)

• Water Facility

• Toilet Facilty

Convergence Plan

Convergence and RMSA Convergence and RMSA BudgetBudget

Over all Planning for RMSA for the year 2013-14 should as the first step towards subsuming the schemes of;

A.) ICT @ schools.B.) IEDSSC.) Vocationalisation of Higher

Secondary Education.D.)Girls Hostel.E.) RMSA.All above under the umbrella of

RMSA as Integrated AWP &B.

Integrated Planning of Infrastructure & Civil Works

1. Prior to drafting of the plan document:- The district planning team should go through:

1.A.) All the sections of Integrated Framework of Implementation of RMSA.

2.B.) Planning and Appraisal Manual of RMSA. 3.C.) Guide lines of the schemes of ICT@

School.4.D.) Integrated Education of the Disabled at

Secondary Stage (IEDSS).5.E.) Construction and running of Girl’s Hostel.6.F.) Vocationalisation of Higher Secondary

Education.

2. Consideration of the activities/ provision available in a school under the above schemes, apart from RMSA activities. 3. Planning, as per the RMSA Planning & Appraisal Manual, should start at the school with the School Improvement Plan in which the “Whole School Approach” planning should be adopted. 4. Convergence of activities and provisions under the various schemes of secondary school sector may be ensured.

Example: A.while developing the school improvement plan for a particular school, apart from interventions available under RMSA, interventions and activities under ICT @ school, IEDSS, Vocationalisation of Higher Secondary Education as well as linking the Girls Hostel facilities with the school should be listed and documented.

B. Interventions under these schemes should be proposed in the School Improvement Plan. C. This approach should be followed for all the schools in the district and as far as possible

Strengthening of Existing Schooling ProvisionsA. RMSA: Improving enabling conditions in schools. Providing required infrastructure in secondary schools.B. ICT@ school -Computer Labs.C. IEDSS:

1.Enabling infrastructure in terms of physical access.
