8 COMPONENTS OF
EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
WHAT ARE THE MAJOR CONSIDERATIONS FOR EDUCATIONAL PLANNING?
TRY THIS OUT
• Planning ensures the success of an institution while taking into consideration the school’s
issues, conditions, constraints while giving importance and focus on what the institution
wants to achieve, its objectives, vision, and mission.
• Planning diminishes the “trial-and-error” hence, it gives intelligent direction to the activity.
• Planning is a response to financial and “non-material” resource scarcity. It provides
alternatives.
• EFFECTIVENESS AND EFFICIENCY saves time, money, and effort.
1. EDUCATIONAL STATUS AND HEAD COUNT
• Every realistic plan is based on dependable CENSUS. When the figures from the head
count are accurate and dependable, we can easily estimate the number of classrooms,
teachers needed, staff, chairs and tables, capital and recurrent costs, among others.
• Capital Costs pertains to payments for acquisition or maintenance of major investments
including equipment, facilities, or infrastructure.
• Recurrent Costs means the payments other than for capital assets, including the goods
and services (wages, salaries, subsidies, interest payments.)

3. EDUCATIONAL FINANCING
• Make your budget work for your School Improvement Plan (SIP), while taking into
consideration the following:
- Old Budgets (learn from underspending and overspending)
- Pupil Numbers (census)
- Exam results (Identify which part of the curriculum could
benefit from the money)
- Pay scales of teachers and staff
- Other Resource Requirements (money for maintenance, insurance, operating expenses)
3. EDUCATIONAL FINANCING
• There are 3 major financial functions in educational planning which are separate and
discrete in operations but are closely related:
A. Budgeting
B. Accounting
C. Auditing
4. SCHOOL BUILDINGS
• A school facility is much more than a passive container of the educational process.
Rather, it is an integral part of the conditions of learning.
• The school facilities can create a sense of safety, ownership, security, and personal touch
depending on the quality and design of the structure.
5. CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT
• Curriculum is the lessons and academic content taught in a school or in a specific course
or program
• Curriculum should be reviewed and revised on a regular basis so that it is able to serve
the changing needs of both students and society.
• Educational Planning strives to research and develop, implement up-to-date and relevant
curriculum for the type of learners nowadays and to improve the present education and
curriculum system.
• Developing the curriculum lead to achieving the school’s goal.
6. EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS
• Educational Expansion is the increase in enrollment rates and the extensiveness of the
educational system which we belong to.
• Two centuries ago, statistics and research have revealed that mass education is prevalent
in the modernized world. (Boli, Ramirez, Meyer, 1985) This is one of the reasons why
educational planning involves creating expansion models in Education.

8. LEGAL BASES
• There are such things as educational laws that protect both students and educators. As
such, legal protection is also an expenditure to think about. Laws also dictate work hours,
hourly wages, licensing and workman's compensation among many other things.
• R.A. 7610 (Special Protection of Children against Abuse, Exploitation, and Discrimination)
• R.A. 4670 (Magna Carta for Public School Teachers)
