The Strength and Weaknesses of Structure and Systems In A School

During our business lesson on wednesday we were seperated into groups and discussed the 7S Matrix of a business organization. Our group worked on the structure and system branches of the 7S Matrix. Below are the conclusions we reached as a group.

Structure:
Departments:
o Strength: Each department is responsible of its own job. They specialize on the field in which they are good at. So the efficiency of the school increases.
- Decentralized:
o Strength: By this, people concentrate on their own field. They can be more successful by only specializing on their own profession. They can be more ambitious and as a result, more successful.
o Weakness: If they specialize too much, they can diverge from the subject.
- Solid Relationship:
o Strength: Even though, there are departments of everything, the connection between them is solid, which makes the cooperative. If there weren’t a solid connection, than the school wouldn’t be able to survive.
Systems:
- Service bus system:
o Strength: The school being too far away from the city leads it for a need of transportation system. Our schools bus system allows all students to arrive at school at the same time. Also safely.
- Food system:
o Strength: It is healthy. It is adequate. Varied food options.
- Assessment system:
o Strength: What we learn in class (input) are tested by several quizzes, projects, assignments etc. to get the feedback of the inputs, the assessment system is used.
o Weakness: The grading system, which is a part of the assessment system, tests the students knowledge according to a 40 minute long exam and most of the students grade comes from this system. It isn’t an effective way of evaluating students. A student may not show all his capability in an exam. As a result, they cannot get the grade they deserve
