Abstract
The research on the study of participatory management of school administrators in the Witthayaprakan campus schools under the Secondary Educational Service Area Office of Samut Prakan aims to: 1) investigate the level of participatory management of school administrators in the Witthayaprakan campus schools; and 2) compare the level of participatory management among schools of different sizes under the same educational office. The sample consists of 229 teachers.Stratified random sampling, The research instrument is a questionnaire using a 5-point Likert scale, divided into two sections: Part 1 gathers general demographic information about the respondents, and Part 2 assesses the participatory management practices of school administrators in the Witthayaprakan campus schools. The reliability of the instrument was found to be 1.00. Statistical methods used in data analysis include frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and One-Way ANOVA. The research findings are as follows: 1) The overall level of participatory management of school administrators in the Witthayaprakan campus schools is very high across all aspects. When considering specific aspects, the ranking of mean scores from highest to lowest is as follows: participation in benefits, decision-making participation, commitment, autonomy in work, goal and objective setting, and mutual trust. 2)The comparison of participatory management levels based on different school sizes revealed a statistically significant difference at the .05 level.
