Participative decision making and conflict management in schools

This research examined participative decision making and conflict management in schools. The researcher made use of questionnaires to gather data on whether educators participated in decision making. He also examined whether the assumption that teacher involvement in decision making reduces conflicts in schools was true. It became clear from the study that despite efforts by the Department of education to involve all stakeholders in decision making in schools, it is still apparent that not all principals are prepared to involve educators in decision making processes. This research study is aimed at creating awareness on the importance of inclusion/ involvement of educators in decision making as prescribed by the South African Schools Act of 1996.
