Summary: | A formal hierarchical structure in schools results in a centralised form
of management. Management by objectives can break a formal hierarchical
structure at a school with the result that members of the staff will participate
more readily.
There is a relationship between play, game and sport, forming a
continuum leading from play to game to sport. This continuum is not only
continuous but it is also mutually inclusive and interwoven.
Education is the most complete equipment of the religious human being
regarding occupational fulfilment. School athletics can be used extracurriculum
to educate children totally. There is a relationship between
instruction and school athletics.
Modalities as basic forms of reality include certain implications regarding
school athletics and its management. These implications reveal certain
values extending from the arithmetical to the credible modalities. Massparticipation
should be the starting point in order to fully utilise the
values of school athletics.
Management by objectives can be defined as a way of management where
management takes place on the basis of objectives formulated by way of
participation and endeavouring to reach these objectives within a set time
limit. Personal objectives of staff must coincide with the organizational
objectives and the testing and evaluation of the results must take place
by means of achievements based on the objectives.
The implementation of certain steps result in a management by objectives
plan for school athletics. If such a plan is put into operation it provides
a school with a unique management by objectives programme for school
athletics.
The problems contained in management by objectives could paramountly
be seated in human behaviour. Through dedication and enthusiasm of the
executive council, especially the principal, these problems might be
bridged. Management by objectives can thus be applied successfully in
schools. === Skripsie (MEd)--PU vir CHO, 1988
