The role that suits me is the role of being a Leader .Being a leader because I love

to help and work with my co-workers. I am an open-minded person and I don’t allow

negativity vibes while working the given task or responsibility. I often live the quote that

teamwork makes the dream work that we can possibly get things done if we will work

together as a team. I am also capable of good criticism because I always think at the

benefit that I will get from the critics to somehow improve my performance for the

better.

Task No. 2
Identify 3 out of 14 on Van’s principles of management is considered as one of the factors
for successful management in your own school’s perspective. Give your reaction.

Out of 14 Van’s principles of management there are three factors for successful

management in our own school’s perspective. These are the following; Principle of

Division of Work, Principle of Authority and Responsibility, Principle of Subordination

of Individual Interest to General Interest. First, is the division of work when there is a

specific task assigned to us we always share the effort to divide tasks in order to finish it

ahead of time. Teamwork is one of the strongest traits we have in our school. Second,

is the principle of Authority and Responsibility. In our school, each employee upholds

the characteristic of having the authority and responsibility of doing the task. For

instance, when one of us had this event such as Buwan ng Wika or even other monthly

events in the school, he/she will always demand for a meeting to be able to grasp the

suggestions and to divide the tasks with of all of his/her co-workers that will help in

making the even a successful one. He/she is always responsible by monitoring and

guiding the members about the task. Lastly, the principle of subordination of individual

interest to general interest before we decide on the different things to be done in the

school, our school head will really initiate faculty meeting wherein everyone’s voice are

to be heard and everyone’s opinion or suggestions are taken to account. Anyone can

speak up especially when the concern and its benefits affect everybody. That’s why the

management of our school is healthy and well-managed by the School head with the

cooperation of the members.

Based on Max Weber’s theory of management ; give comment/s citing the present set up of
DepEd management process.

- Task Specialization
- Hierarchical authority
- Formal Selection

1. Task Specialization

Tasks are divided into simple, routine categories on the basis of

competencies and functional specialisations. Every employee is responsible for

what he/she does best and knows exactly what is expected of him/her. By

dividing work on the basis of specialisation, the organisation directly benefits.

Each department has specific powers. In the Department of Education this is

actually implemented in our division we had different departments consisting

such as the SGOD, CID, IT etc. each have an important role to portray in order

for an ease and order administration of the division.

2. Hierarchical Authority

In bureaucratic organizational structures, there are many hierarchical

positions. This is essentially the trademark and foundation of a bureaucracy. In

Deped, we also practiced Hierarchical Authority from the Secretary down to the

Regional Directors, Superintendents, Educational Chiefs, Supervisors and the

like.
 3. Formal Selection

All employees are selected on the basis of technical skills and

competences, which have been acquired through training, education and

experience. One of the basic principles is that employees are paid for their

services and that level of their salary is dependent on their position. In Deped,

formal selection is dependent on the affiliations that you had as well as your

performance

Task No. 4

Comments on the leadership style of your school administration

The leadership style of our school administration is quite wonderful it is because our School

Head practiced the Authoritative way of handling his/her constituents. She is not strict but firm in

her decisions, rules and plans. She is not relax but gives leeway whenever pressure and anxiety

comes in the workplace. She is one of the few that can really uphold her authority to someone

without offending him/her.

The SALIENT POINT OF K-12 PROGRAM The K to 12 Program covers Kindergarten and

12 years of basic education (six years of primary education, four years of Junior High School, and
Task No. 5
two years of Senior High School [SHS]). Based on my opinion, the salient features of the K-12 is

necessary and somewhat helpful in providing education for the all of the learners in the

Philippines. One of those advantages is that it helps us to be globally competent for we are

already adapting the same level of and minimum to maximum years of schooling. This is the key

that we are no longer behind to the other non- 3 rd world countries we can be at par with them. In

our context, this is an advantage for those learners who can’t afford to go to college but can have

a decent job after senior highschool graduation they are very much qualified to apply for a job.

Each salient features of the K to 12 BEP plays a vital role specially in moulding the young

learner. It is one of the benefits that the child has undergone Kindergarten because it serves as a

preparation for him or her in schooling. 6 years in elementary is enough to equipped the child the

necessary competence that he or she will be bringing when he/she proceeds in High School.

Next, 6 years in Highschool is somewhat appropriate because it helps the learner reaches its legal

age at Senior Highschool when he or she can be able to think more maturely and rationally about

the realistic version of the world. However, it depends on the learner whether he/she have done

good or bad in his or her formation. I have no negative reactions when it comes to the salient

features of the K-12 BEP but its curriculum implementation is somewhat or quite vague due to the

spiral progression of competencies.
