The aim of this work is to assess the the realization of strategic management principles in Švenčionys district general education schools, to present the conclusions and proposals for the development of strategic management in general education schools. The issue raised in this research is the importance of strategic management development and implementation, both in public and in private sectors, which is emphasized as an essential factor in achieving a higher standard of living for progress of people, science and technology. However, democracy and progress in every development, practicing the principles of strategic management in organizations, are done only in part, and they are constantly faced with different obstacles. There are no published studies about the realization of strategic management principles in Lithuanian schools, which is why this fact reveals the novelty of the given subject. Research objectives: 1.

The contingent of the exploratory: The research was conducted in nine schools in Švenčionys district and in five institutions which are social school partners. The method used in this research: survey (used in two different forms). 160 respondents in total. Main research conclusions: Once summarizing the research results, we came to the conclusion that the strategic management principles are not yet implemented in Švenčionys district schools: some of the research participants claimed that their schools were not ready for creation of any strategic plan and they were certainly not yet ready for its implementation. One-fifth of the respondents admitted that they were not fully familiar with the school's strategic plan; only two-thirds of respondents made use of opportunity to influence the strategy development, three quarters understood their participation in the strategic management process as their personal coordination with the school's policy. Only little more than half of the survey participants rated the indicators marked in school strategic plan as real, based on comprehensive school environmental and internal analysis. Often this opinion was expressed by respondents with higher duties than by those occupying a lower position. The major obstacles to the implementation of the school's strategy for the participating in the survey Švenčionys district secondary school's headmasters and teachers, were lack of financial resources and lack of motivation. Younger respondents significantly more often than older respondents considered lack of motivation as a significant obstacle to the realization of the strategic management principles in general education school management. The research confirmed that there is a positive correlation between the realization of strategic management principles, school reputation, and education quality for students to gain.
