Résumé:
Human resources are, without doubt, the most valuable resource in every educational sector. The success or failure of a school can primarily depend on the effective management of its personnel. For this reason, human resources management has become more important within the educational sector over the last few decades. The purpose of this study is to examine the case for implementing a Human Resources Management (henceforth HRM) unit in every school to obtain the best results. To achieve this purpose, I undertook an investigative study that attempted to highlight the importance of this unit in our schools. An important consideration was to ascertain if school principals and teachers recognized the role of this unit. To collect data, I gave a questionnaire to 20 secondary and primary school teachers in Bordj-Bounaama, Tissemsilt. I also conducted an interview with the principals of three different schools: primary, middle, and secondary.
I found that both principals and teachers were fully aware of the important role played by the HRM unit in schools. I also found that the majority of the teachers agreed that HRM plays a central role in the teaching and learning process, and in their own professional development. Likewise, the principals agreed that HRM plays a significant role in enhancing HR relations and the effectiveness of schools. I was, therefore, able to conclude that the existence of a Human Resources Unit in every educational setting is extremely important and, indeed, necessary as it enables schools to operate effectively and deliver the best possible education to their students.
