Abstract

This study tried to explore the relation of current issues about the school organization perceived by teachers, and to identify the causes of explored issues by using TOC (Theory of Constraints). We interviewed 13 teachers working in a comprehensive upper secondary school and made the participant observation to reveal the issues of the school organization. This school is the pioneering high school based on some reports of educational reforms, and it has a different system from traditional schools. As results, issues of the school organization were classified by four clusters; 1) Stress and busyness of teachers, 2) Difficulty in collaboration among teachers (individualism), 3) Top-down style of school management, 4) Dilemma between university entrance examination system and the school policies. The fourth cluster included the other clusters. These issues come from the features of this school. That is to say, there might be discrepancy between the teachers' work and school system.
