School leaders across the nation are exploring ways to better educate students and improve school performance. School-based management (SBM) offers a way to promote improvement by decentralizing control from central district offices to individual school sites. It attempts to give school constituents--administrators, teachers, parents and other community members--more control over what happens in schools. In the education arena, school-based management has been viewed largely as a political reform that transfers power (authority) over budget, personnel and curriculum to individual schools. Little attention has been given to empowering school sites with control over information, professional development (knowledge) or compensation systems (rewards).
