Abstract:
In the realm of Educational Administration, the social systems theory plays a pivotal role in understanding the dynamics of schools as organizations. Schools operate not in isolation but as open social systems that interact with various environmental forces. This article explores why schools are considered open social systems, focusing on the significant environmental forces at play. Additionally, it will delve into the most critical organizational goal of schools, drawing from the perspective of a headteacher.
Keywords: Open Social Systems, Interconnectedness, Socio-economic Factors, Dynamic Adaptation, Student Achievement.
