The research discussed the effects of implantation of self-management in education, through which the schools are working and taking decisions independently and relying on the local bodies for support and resources provision. The published literature gathered and analyzed in this paper indicates the positive effects of decentralization on the scores of students and general achievement, mostly, the studies found that the relation between self-management and the scores of math and reading is positive, at the same time, the previous literature found that these results are closely related to the quality of management before the implementation of decentralization. Conclusively, the implementation of educational autonomy requires previous study on the feasibility and requirements of implementation to guarantee the utmost benefit and educational outcomes.
