Abstract
The theory of local school management focused on the decentralization of authority of decision making to school site and placed emphasis upon student learning. there was a significant correlation between local school management and student performance because the students in self-managing schools perform much better than those in school with traditional school management. Based upon the importance of student performance in local school management, this paper aimed to review the model of resource allocation in the field of local school management, which valued student academic performance highly, to uncover how resource allocation contributed to student learning.
Keywords: resource allocation, local school management, student learning.
