Theoretical, Empirical and Legislative Determinants of Education of Education Managers in the Slovak Republic

Summary/Abstract: Outputs of different national and international surveys point to the fact that one of the biggest problems of schools in Slovakia is their insufficient funding. Another shortcoming in school seems to be the effective training of school managers. The key to success in the education sector is the degree of its ability to bring new ideas that are useful for the development of theory and that are in practice creating new or added value. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare such workers for the education sector, not limited only to teachers. Educational administrators are no longer expected to be merely good managers but leaders of schools as learning organizations. The paper outlines the theoretical basis of education of school managers and a brief description of its implementation in accordance with current legislation through various providers is focused on the competencies necessary for successful performance as a school principal and to evaluate the scope of powers given to schools in terms of their optimal needs in relation to their real needs and requirements.
