Abstract
Risk management in schools is of critical importance for the effective planning and implementation of risk management processes within schools. It serves as essential information to support decision-making in the prevention, mitigation, and reduction of potential risks that may arise in educational settings. This study aimed to (1) examine the current and desired states of risk management in school, and (2) assess the needs assessment for risk management in school. The sample group consisted of 235 individuals, including administrators and teachers. The sample size was determined using the percentage criteria selected by Stratified Random Sampling. The instruments were two five-rating scale questionnaires: (1) a questionnaire on the current state of risk management in school with the Index of Item Congruence (IC) between .80-1.00, the discrimination between .25-.70, and the reliability of .88; (2) a questionnaire on the desired state of risk management in school with the Index of Item Congruence (IC) between .80-1.00, the discrimination between
.24-.70, and the reliability of .87. The statistics used were percentage, mean, standard deviation, and the Modified Priority Needs Index (PNIModified). The results revealed that (1) the overall current state of risk management in school was at a high level, while the overall desired state of risk management in school was at the highest level. (2) The overall
needs assessment of risk management in schools produced PNI Modified value of .301 ranking the aspects from the highest to the lowest as follows: (1) financial risk, (2) legal and regulatory compliance risk, (3) operational risk, and (4) strategic risk, respectively.
