Abstract |
|
|
| This study aims to examine the effect of corporate governance on improving the institutional performance of Jordanian schools applying international programs. Following the descriptive analytical approach, the study sample included (66) schools applying international programs in Amman. The study used an electronic questionnaire to collect primary data from members of the administrative and teaching staff in the study sample schools, and due to the difficulty of limiting these individuals to a specific number, (500) questionnaires were distributed, to include the largest number of members of the study community. The study found that schools applying international programs in Jordan are interested in applying corporate governance to a high degree and the (strategic vision) dimension is one of the most important corporate governance dimensions. Further, there is a statistically significant effect of corporate governance in terms of its dimensions (rule of law, justice, transparency, accountability, equality, and strategic vision) in improving the institutional performance in terms of its dimensions (institutional effectiveness, efficiency, relevance, and continuity) in schools applying international programs in Jordan. The study recommends the administrations of schools applying international programs in Jordan to prepare written rules and regulations that clarify the rights, responsibilities and work procedures for all its employees at each organizational level in the school, and to apply these rules with complete transparency for everyone without any discrimination. |
