Institutional planning


Institutional planning
Each secondary school must have its own plan.  Institutional planning has been treated as the basic unit or grass-root level of the larger educational planning.  When a plan is prepared by a particular institution on the basis of its own development and improvement, we call it  institutional planning.
According to M.B. Buch,
—  “Institutional planning is a programme of development and improvement prepared by an educational institution on the basis of its felt needs and the resources available or likely to be available, with a view to improving the school programme and school practices. It is based on the principle of optimum utilisation of the resources available in the school and the community.”
Objectives of Institutional Planning
—  To provide equality of opportunities to all the pupils to get education.
—  To have all-round development and improvement of the school.
—  To make education productive, so that with education may come economic riches.
—  To make provision for utilisation of adequate available manpower of the institution.
—  To make education available to even the poorest of the citizens.
—  To provide an opportunity to the local community, school staff, students and teachers to join hands in improving the institution.
—  To provide realistic and concrete ideas to institutional planning.
Steps involved in institutional planning
—  Identifying the needs of the school
—  Pooling together the resource available
—  Preparing a plan of action
—  Implementing the plan
—  Evaluating and taking corrective actions
