What is school base management?

School-based management (SBM) is an educational reform approach that decentralizes decision-making authority to individual schools, enabling them to tailor their policies and practices to meet specific local needs. This involves empowering teachers, parents, and the community to participate in governance, budgeting, and curriculum development. The goal of SBM is to enhance accountability, improve educational outcomes, and foster a more responsive and adaptable school environment. By giving schools greater autonomy, SBM encourages innovation and a focus on student-centered practices.
