A STUDY OF ORGANISATIONAL CLIMATE OF HIGHER SECONDARY SCHOOLS OF ANAND

Abstract

Anyone who visits more than a few schools notes quickly how school differs from each other in their “feel”. In one school principal and teachers find pleasure in working with each other; while in second school, the brooding discontent of the teachers is palpable; the principal tries to hide his incompetence and lack of a sense of direction behind a cloak of authority and yet he wears this cloak poorly. A third school is marked by neither joy nor despair, but by hollow ritual. And so, too, as one moves to other schools, one finds that each appears to have ‘personality’ of its own (Andrew Halpin, (1969) In Sharma, (1973)).
