Q. Concept of Quality Management (Total Quality Management) and Excellence in Education
Achieving quality education is possible only when educational services/products meet needs and expectations, give value for time and efforts and lead to true all-round development of the child – physical, mental, social, moral, spiritual, etc.
For this we must follow Total Quality Management wherein the entire institution i.e. management, principal, supervisor, teachers, non-teaching staff, parents, pupil, all work as a harmonious unit to achieve results.
