dc.description.abstract | The objective of the study was to establish the strategic planning practices public
secondary schools in Nairobi have adopted .A questionnaire was used to collect data
to achieve the objective. A census study was done from a population of forty two
(42) public schools, twenty five (25) responded to the questionnaire. The data
collected was checked for consistency and then analyzed to arrive at various
conclusions.
The study concluded that strategic planning is a new phenomenon in most of the
schools although majority had started using the plans to be able to, establish their
mission and establish their objectives for better performance. The strategic planning
practices that are being adopted by the public secondary schools in Nairobi are
similar to those proposed in strategic management theory and also reported in the
literature from studies conducted in other industries or other institutions of higher
learning.
From the findings of the study, it is recommended that further research be carried out
in the area of strategic planning practices that public secondary schools in Kenya
have adopted and their impact on the K.C.S.E. performance. The research could also
extend to look at other players offering secondary education for example private
schools. | en |
