Course: MAED 204 EDUCATIONAL FINANCE AND PLANNING

1. What are the five common critical issues under in the educational budgeting and financial

management system in school? ( 10 points)

1. Commitment- Are funds provided in time for the organization/school to use?

2. Compliance- Are the budget diverted to another project?

3. Efficiency- Are the funds efficient enough to compensate for teaching facilities and school

improvement?

4. Effectiveness- Is the budget allocation effective or prior to the needs of an

organization/school?

5. Equity- Do the budget allocation equally divided depending on the needs and current trends

of an organization.

2. Differentiate between financial administration to financial planning? ( 10 points)

Financial administration is consisting of the school planning team in terms of financial budgeting. These
are the school head and the appointed treasurer of the school. On the other hand, financial planning
covers both budgeting and financial management that assess trends in budget allocation in an
organization to provide quality, efficiency, and effective result. It consists of the school planning team,
learners, and PTA members.

3. Identify three among the eight areas in the school-based funding system and their corresponding

issues. ( 6 points)

1. MOOE- the issue among MOOE is some budgets for school maintenance are not directly given

because it is converted to another project.

2. PTA Contribution- some issue I encountered during the recent PTA financial planning team

was the transparency of their reports.

3. Special Education Fund of LGU- some common issue of this school-based funding is that

priority schools were be given first in budget allocation.

 Objectives of Financial Administration

5. Identify two basic principles in educational planning and explain why it is the most important principle
Sample initiatives or activities to achieve it
The school administrator will be the one to control
the budget allocation of the school MOOE fund.
Before he/she controls it he/she will be going to
assess first what are the needs of the school in both
quality, access, and governance.
Financial reports also will be done by the school
administrator. Everything he/she does that involves
money will be written and put in the record book to
show transparency.
After crafting a plan for school improvement, the
school administrator will now pass the annual
implementation plan consisting of the computation
of the expenditures in quality, access, and
governance.

in educational planning and finance. (10 points)

1. Change- Just like our educational system, educational planning is very important to make quality

and measurable planning resulting in a good product. Change is a changeless phenomenon. We

need change to become a contributing partner to our new realities.

2. Consulting stakeholders- we will include our stakeholders in our school planning team so that

they will know the financial status of our school and to explain the aim of the plan and to get

their support. We should be transparent enough when it comes to finances.
