Decentralized Budgeting: Getting the Most Out of Disbursements of Funds.
Jefferson, Anne L.
Education Canada, v35 n4 p33-35 Win 1995
Decentralizing educational budgets allows the disbursement of funds aimed at maximizing student development. Three strategies for decentralizing budgets are program budgeting, which eliminates line-item budgeting and allows administrators to address questions regarding the relative value of educational programs; zero-based budgeting, which allows analysis of operating programs; and educational vouchers, which allow parents to choose their child's school.
