School organization refers to the structure and functioning of educational institutions. It involves managing human and

physical resources, as well as adhering to laws and regulations that influence the educational process. The concept of a

learning organization has been extended to schools, aiming to transform them into organizations capable of effectively

responding to dynamic and uncertain environments. The ordering principles of a school, which include power relations and

control, play a role in determining its performance. Schools can be seen as loosely coupled systems, consisting of

overlapping systems such as student, faculty, parent, and administration systems. The climate of a school is crucial in

facilitating communication among these systems and preventing suspicion and hostility. School organization is shaped by

its goals, the work it does, and the social context it interacts with, as well as the internal social structures and culture it

develops.
