Abstract: The tea garden regions of Assam, known for their unique socio-economic and geographical characteristics, have recently witnessed the establishment of model schools as a means to enhance educational access and quality for the local communities. The present study focuses on the management practices of newly established model schools situated within the tea garden areas of Assam, aiming to assess the challenges and strategies associated with their effective functioning. This study employs a qualitative approach, combining self-structured questionnaire and qualitative interviews with key stakeholders such as school administrators, teachers, parents, and community leaders. Through a comparative analysis of different model schools and their management approaches, this research aims to provide a nuanced understanding of the diverse challenges faced by educational institutions in tea garden areas and recommend effective management strategies. The findings of this study contribute to the existing literature on educational management in challenging and unique contexts, shedding light on the complexities of running schools in remote and economically marginalized regions. The insights gained from this research can help policymakers, educators, and stakeholders in understanding critical factors that need to be addressed to ensure the successful operation and sustainability of model schools in the tea garden areas of Assam.
