Abstract

The idea of management in a certain way has a universal meaning, causing the wide spreading of this idea, which also found its place in the educational institutions, primarily as organizational management, human resources management, levels management (1. the highest level — objectives, long-term planning and organization; 2. the intermediate level — the control of operative procedures and objective supporting programs; 3. the lowest level — objectives interpretation, program policy), strategic management (long-term) and function management (the number of functions corresponding to the number of management programs). The management functions concern the purposes to be achieved, which are usually plans, strategies, good organization, quality leadership and successful control. Therefore, it follows that the educational management can be viewed as management of the system network and hierarchy (kindergarten, group — school, class). The specificity of leadership and management in case of kindergarten teachers, form-masters and teachers can be discussed as the pedagogical role of the kindergarten teacher in the leadership and management, the pedagogical role of the form-master in the leadership and management, administrative work, the team leader’s (form-master’s) work planning and programming, preparation and chairing of teaching-staff conferences, cooperation with other teaching-staff members, cooperation with parents, etc.
