Evaluating the Accredited Basic Education Schools in the New Valley Governorate

Abstract

The current study aimed at reaching a vision to ensure continuous improvement of accredited basic education schools in the New Valley Governorate. The researcher used the descriptive analytical method which is based on the description of the phenomenon under study. In the field study, he relied on SWOT Analysis in order to form the questionnaire, define its statements, and determine its dimensions. The study reached many conclusions most important of which are that the total averages of the relative proportions of the elements of weakness were more than the total averages of the relative proportions of the elements of strength, and the total averages of the relative proportions of the threats were more than the total averages of the relative proportions of the available opportunities. This suggests that the present status of the accredited basic education schools in the New Valley face many problems and shortcomings that can affect their performance. This of course affirms that accreditation has only added little benefit for these schools. Accordingly, a comprehensive vision of development and improvement is badly needed.
