Abstract
The pertinent literature is reviewed and a paradigm or a framework
is presented to guide conceptualisation and implementation for the
programme development process in educational administration in an
African country, Rwanda. The framework components include four
dimensions and related systematic conceptual levels and procedural
stages. It is argued that improvement of education requires the
definition of the goals of educational administration, the upgrading of
the instruction for on‐the‐job practitioners, and the development of a
pre‐service programme for prospective school administrators responsible
for efficient and effective management of the centralised educational
system. The framework claims to be a disciplinary matrix for developing
a pre‐service programme in the field of educational administration.
