ԾՐԱԳՐԻ ՄԱՍԻՆ՝ 

Despite global calls for improvements in education, progress towards learning for all is slow. This deficit is particularly pronounced for disadvantaged children. But why do some students learn more in some schools than others? While there are many contributing factors at system, school, and household-level, one consideration receiving growing attention is school management - the processes and practices used by principals day-to-day as they run their schools (World Development Report 2018). Armenia faces a key challenge in accounting for the role of management practices in the performance of their education system and ensuring that school principals are accountable for the quality of the management practices they implement: it is difficult to measure school management accurately and cost-effectively at scale. While the quality of management practices has been shown to be an important determinant of school performance in many countries, there has not yet been a consensus on which instrument can best captures the quality of management practices in schools in a way that is both accurate and scalable.
This ASA would support Armenia in developing a set of instruments measuring management concepts in different ways, to be tested through a survey experiment.
The Armenian Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sports (MoESCS) is currently undertaking a revision of the career framework for school principals and is interested in learning more about potential ways to measure the quality of management practices in Armenia and to evaluate the work of school principals. The MoESCS will gain from the World Bank's support in this area, within the broader framework of the ongoing general education reforms in Armenia.
