A Review of Research Concerning the Implementation of Site-Based Management.

Leithwood, Kenneth; Menzies, Teresa

School Effectiveness and School Improvement, v9 n3 p233-85 Sep 1998

Reviews 77 empirical and case studies of school-based management (SBM) implementations reported between 1985 and 1995 to determine typical obstacles and promising ameliorative strategies. There is no firm evidence of SBM's effects on students. Administrative-control SBM would probably produce the least amount of school change. Community-control SBM would probably yield the most change. (104 references) (MLH)
