Abstract

The objectives of this research are threefold: 1) to examine the levels of security management through the application of three principles in educational institutions governed by the Secondary Educational Service Area Office Nakhon Ratchasima, 2) to analyze the differences in security management levels across educational institutions of varying sizes within the same office, and 3) to explore methodologies and advancements in security management utilizing the three principles in these institutions, in alignment with the Deming Quality Cycle. The research concentrated on 50 educational institutions governed by the Secondary Educational Service Area Office in Nakhon Ratchasima. The participants in this study included educational administrators, notably a school director, a deputy school director, and a teacher, all of whom held responsibilities pertaining to safety measures within the educational institution. This configuration yielded a cumulative total of 150 informants for each educational institution. We utilized a five-point rating scale questionnaire to gather the data, which exhibited an Index of Item Objective Congruence of 1.00 and a reliability coefficient of 0.98. The analysis of data was carried out through the presentation of percentage, mean, and standard deviation (S.D.).

The findings of the research are presented as follows: The overall level of security management, as assessed through the three principles, within educational institutions under the Secondary Educational Service Area Office Nakhon Ratchasima, was found to be notably high. 2) An analysis of security management grounded in the three principles within schools governed by the Secondary Educational Service Area Office Nakhon Ratchasima revealed no notable disparities in school sizes, whether considered collectively or across individual factors. The aggregate findings remained consistent at the 0.05 significance threshold. The examination of security management methodologies and advancements within educational institutions, specifically under the auspices of the Secondary Educational Service Area Office Nakhon Ratchasima, is framed by the three tenets of the Deming Quality Cycle, which encompasses three distinct measures: (1) Regarding preventive strategies, educational institutions ought to convene discussions to strategize their operations and formulate thorough safety plans that encompass all aspects. This process entails the recognition of safety hazards and the development of policies and procedures informed by the identified risks. (2) Regarding internment measures, educational institutions ought to prioritize and tackle pressing safety concerns. This involves formulating strategies to enrich and broaden the educational curriculum, incorporating safety-related material that aligns with the recognized urgent safety concerns. (3) Regarding enforcement measures, educational institutions ought to implement a robust system for effectively addressing matters of school safety. This process encompasses the establishment of protocols for the management or mitigation of incidents, offering support during their occurrence, and guaranteeing that those impacted receive the protection required by legal statutes.
