Features: To promote the reform of school management and the creation of the "Modern School System," school leaders, as heads of institutions, should possess an entrepreneurial spirit of seeking change, development, and innovation. They should also be well-prepared theoretically and equipped with knowledge. In the past, running a school rarely involved considering the costs and benefits of education. However, in today's increasingly market-oriented environment, schools must also focus on costs and benefits, which is essential for both public and private schools. Particularly when the funding sources of schools are no longer solely dependent on government financial allocations, learning and understanding financial knowledge and cost management is crucial for school leaders. This book is divided into ten chapters, covering: general concepts of educational financial management, the tasks of educational financial management, the scope of educational financial management, financial management by educational administrative departments and schools, school assets, financial management of school-run enterprises and logistics, educational costs, cost accounting in education, the operation and processing of cost accounting in education, cost control in education, and cost-benefit analysis in education.
