The Solution to Education Bureaucracies. The Iconoclast.
McMurtry, John
Canadian Social Studies, v30 n3 p113-15 Spr 1996
Observes that decisions to cut bureaucratic waste in Canada's educational system rests with the bureaucracy itself. Maintains that most schools could productively institute a limited form of teacher-oriented self-administration, thereby reducing and streamlining educational administration. Argues that most educational administration is self-serving and obstructionist. (MJP)
