Abstract To provide quality education requires effective management of the human and material resources in the industry. Supervision which is a component of education administration is equally fundamental if the goals of the system will be realized. This paper therefore examines the twin concepts of school management and supervision as the vital factors in providing quality education services. The paper advocated for school administrators to have the required qualification and experience to function optimally. Also, managers of the education industry were advised to attend conferences, seminars and workshops to enhance their skills in school management and supervision among others.  Introduction Education in all countries of the world is seen as the corner stone of development. It forms the basis for literacy, skills acquisition, technological advancement as well as the ability to harness the natural resources of the environment for development. To be able to actualize this, the school organization must be properly managed.  The School is an organization of complex activities which are carried out by people and are coordinated by different persons. Thus, management is necessary in school to co-ordinate the various activities of the units for goal achievement. Management in school entails working with and through teachers, non teaching staff and pupils or students to get things done effectively. School management has its attention primarily on the school. It is more concerned with the institution, its goals, policies and execution of these policies. In school management, the primary aim has to do with the improvement of teaching and learning, and all the activities of the school. The functions of management in school are performed by the schools heads (i.e. head teacher/principal) known as the school manager. A school manager is described as an executive head of his organization. He/she is a coordinator who has to organize activities in such a way that things work smoothly, quickly and effectively. The education manager is described as the individual in a school setting who directs the affairs of the school in such a way as to achieve its primary goals and objectives. He/she is involved in effective planning, organizing, supervision, controlling and evaluation. Therefore, for a school manager to successfully accomplish the set objectives, he has to work with other people within the school system and be able to inspire them to work co-operatively with him so as to achieve the educational objectives. Sidho (2002) highlighted some principles that can be of help in the achievement of school objectives. These include consistency with the philosophy of education, democratic approach, optimum contribution by all, respect for individualities, due importance to different programmes, and optimistic outlook.
