Abstract
This thesis aims to discuss the concrete strategies for the administrative organizational restructuring of a national primary school, centering on the tasks, structure and process of the administrative organization of such school. The Delphi technique is adopted in this study. There are 22 experts participating in the whole study. 24 department directors from different national primary schools have answered the questionnaire, with 24 valid samples, occupying 100% of all the samples.
1. Major discoveries
(1)There are 131 tasks to be accomplished by the administrative organization of a national primary school, among which, 8 tasks do not need to be accomplished; 28 tasks need to be accomplished, but are appropriate for outsourcing; 95 tasks also need to be accomplished, but are not appropriate for outsourcing.
(2)The ideal administrative organization of a national primary school is: there are four departments set up under the headmaster, namely, educational affairs division, student affairs division, general affairs division, and counseling division, among which, under educational affairs division , there are instruction section, registration section, teaching facilities section, information manaement section, and research &; development section; under student affairs division , there are student activities section, disciplinary section, physical education section, and hygiene &; health section; under general affairs division, there are general affairs section, cashier section, and documentation section; under counseling division , there are counseling section, data section, and special education section.

(4)The executive officers of a national primary school are classified into four levels: headmaster, department director, team leader, and undertaker. Of the tasks needed to be accomplished but not appropriate for outsourcing, 36 tasks are appropriate for the headmaster to make decisions on, while the number of tasks for the department director, the team leader, and the undertaker to make decisions on are 27, 33 and 3 respectively.
(5)The rational process for adjusting the administrative tasks of a national primary school has won approval of over 87.5% of the administrative staff of the school.
