The averages of desirable participation in each one of the aspects cited in school life range from 3.28 for participation in teaching staff training and improvement at the school to 3.58 for desirable participation in the educational project of the school and desirable for disciplinary problems. The global average of the fourteen questions on desirable participation is 3.44: it is thus in average terms, in the scope near to group decision making. Thus, as to participation in schools, the answers show a greater degree of participation than at present is desired, above all in matters related to teacher training, the evaluation of educational quality, the school organisational aspects and activities with students' parents.
As may be seen on table 5 and graph 5, the desirable participation for the members asked is higher than the real participation in all the aspects, all of the differences being significant. However, the order established between the areas of participation, in real and desirable participation, is practically the same. This fact is also explained by the high correlations found between real and desirable participation. Aspects related to the school, the students and the educational action, such as disciplinary problems, the educational projects of the school and the improvement projects, are areas in which there is more participation than others, although those in which the wish to participate is also greater than in the remaining ones. |
