Abstract The major and rapid changes regarding the legislative context, curricula, the informational technologies, school organization management etc. generate both positive and negative effects on school organizational climate. Our paper aims to present an investigation with reference to obstacles for change in school organization management on a 200 sample students and from master studies. We chose the qualitative methods of investigation: the documents’ analysis, observation and focus group interview. The results of the research showed that the process of change in school organization management is dominated more by internal jams (difficulty of deficiencies’ diagnosis, problems of measuring the results, reduced inves tments in the training of the personal etc.) than external ones (lack of confidence in external agents, lack of change agents etc.). In conclusion, our subjects proposed some measures meant to limit change obstacles in school organization management that can create the support of a program, which is to be implemented in educational organizations. Keywords: obstacles, change, school organization management. * ADDRESS FOR CORRESPONDENCE: Eftimie Simona, Petroleum-Gas University, Bd.
