Do Greater School Autonomy and Accountability Make a Difference?

INTRODUCTION Many literature on economics, education and sociology suggest that students who entered private schools have a broader outcome than students who entered traditional public schools. Since the common features of private schools are their autonomy from the school district office, these findings are based on the Charter Public School in the United States, Free School in the UK and independent public schools in Australia, so that the public school students' We strengthened our efforts to improve the results. And many community management schools in developing countries.

The basic idea of ​​Charter School is to exercise more autonomy right in exchange for greater responsibility. As a public school, a charter school is open to all children, does not require an entrance examination, can not claim a tuition fee, and must participate in state tests and federal liability program Hmm. The school created its own 'laws and regulations'. It is a set of rules and performance standards for them to account for accountability. From the viewpoint of accountability, the state schools will comply directly with the standards set by the State Board of Education, but charter schools are defined by groups (commercial groups, teacher groups, parents, local school districts, or government agencies) We need to comply with charter. . In theory, if a charter school does not meet the criteria established by that charter, it can be closed.

Charter School - designed by it - it is designed to evaluate the school. The concept of Charter School is based on giving Charter School greater autonomy right in exchange for greater responsibility. This means that charter schools actively participate in the evaluation of the results and report their results to state agencies, licensors or sponsors, parents, and the public. Another reason for Charter School to evaluate school is that bureaucrats can not handle them because they embody web-based management. In addition, these schools are small and self-selection of teachers and faculty should bring higher levels of interpersonal relationships trust and better partnership and professional culture. These reasons indicate that charter schools are more likely to incorporate into the normal operation of the school using evaluation.
