Kuang Liming
Ningyuan County, under the fall of the secondary school Kuang Liming
In the implementation of the new curriculum today, the knowledge of the moment in the enrichment of us, the school management is also inseparable from the continuous learning, innovation. As a school administrator, it is important to always use Professor Zhong Zhixian's quote, "Once and for all has become a spiritual specimen of our memories, and it is a comforting myth that we can't adapt to the changes of the world. For survival and development, our biggest problem is that we have accidentally become illiterate." Words to remind myself. To this end, I continue to explore in school management and draw on the successful school experience of other schools for their own use, creative work, and strive to come out of a rural middle school school road. Now I am on how to be a good rural school principal to talk about a few immature views.
Awareness-raising, changing the concept, the right medicine
As a school head. First of all, we must correct our position, posture, and carry out creative work. Because as a rural secondary school, the face of many difficulties, first of all, the shortage of funds, the reduction of student population. The idea of running a school is more rigid, management can not keep up with the situation. Secondly, the concept of teacher teaching is more backward. At the same time, but also to deal with and coordinate the surrounding relationship. Therefore, in the face of difficulties, first of all, do not complain and sigh, as a principal, but to have firm confidence, have the determination to overcome the difficulties. In terms of concepts, completely get rid of the idea of waiting, relying on the idea of a new concept, a new way of thinking to explore the education reform. Organize all teachers to watch once a week to learn their advanced school experience. For the coordination of peripheral relations, I am to lead the administrative team many times to go deep into the surrounding large villages and surnames for research, from teachers and the masses to grasp first-hand information. In order to create a good and harmonious campus environment, our school actively prepared and held a meeting of the church, invited the local party committee government, the main leaders of the police station, as well as the jurisdiction of all the village branches of the two committees of the cadres to the school to discuss and teach, **** seek the development of the school plan.
Second, enhance their own qualifications and capabilities, establish a scientific concept of development
In the implementation of the curriculum reform today, the school's teaching management in the innovation at the same time, but also to inherit and carry forward the traditional experience of education, the principal in exploring ways and means of reform, but also to take stock of the situation, combined with the school's past experience, carefully analyze the current situation of the school to further explore the more conducive to the school's development, Students grow up healthy school ideas, never blindly follow suit, draw wholesale from different schools, different regions of the school experience, we must adhere to the inheritance and carry forward the scientific concept of seeking truth from facts to analyze, to learn, to learn from. Only in this way, can make the school running really do people have my excellent, people excellent my special. In view of the status quo of the school, I asked the Office of the Registrar, each period should be held in the new curriculum reform "four links" teaching mode open class. Every teacher's lesson should be given a fair evaluation and specific analysis. From practice to find experience, from practice to learn. Let our teachers from the closed and narrow world to the open and broad stage. So as to achieve the enhancement of ability, enhancement of literacy.
Three, change the role of their own active participation in the reform
In the actual work, there are many principals feel that they are supreme in the school, often giving orders. But I put myself in a lower posture, the principal is always a teacher, always also surnamed "teaching". I should be a scholarly, family-oriented principal. In the school both as a commander, but also as a combatant, in teaching, but also in the front line, actively involved in the education reform to become a leader in science and research, so that teachers are pleased to convince. I firmly believe that "a good principal is a good school", for which I often in-depth teaching and research groups, in-depth among the teachers to study the new curriculum, to explore the new model, and listen to the evaluation of the class each period of more than 30. Because education will only rely on scientific research to achieve a real improvement in the quality of education, teachers to really improve the level of specialization, in order to reflect the "people-oriented" school of thought, to promote students to the direction of health, sustainable development.
Four, pay close attention to internal management, comprehensively enhance the construction of teachers
In the case of the new curriculum reform is intensifying the east wind, enhance the construction of teachers is the implementation of quality education, the key to grasp the curriculum reform. The fundamental strategy for the sustainable development of education is the improvement of the overall quality of teachers. Any successful principal, are in the construction of the teaching force to increase efforts to improve the overall quality of the teaching force to work. Will focus on: a grasp of teacher ethics. It is the foundation of the teaching force; teacher morality directly affects the image of the whole education; two grasp the conceptual change of teachers. Schools in the wave of curriculum reform to truly realize the "conceptual change, comprehensive practice, theoretical enhancement, gradual maturity" road, must be actively practiced, bold exploration, full deployment. School leaders, teachers are actively involved in the first line; third is to grasp the teacher subject professionalism and teacher training, to implement the "Teacher Quality Improvement Project", the school must further strengthen the continuing education and professional training of teachers, and constantly improve the business level and ability of teachers to develop a series of training programs. Actively encourage teachers to participate in educational research, open class, writing teaching papers, carry out various types of competitions and other activities for the rapid growth of teachers to provide exercise stage.
In short, the principal's school of thought is the result of a long period of deep thinking about the practice of education, which requires the principal to be good at learning, good at research, good at summarizing. To establish the "achievement of teachers to achieve education" thinking, so that teachers have hope and confidence, have a head start. In this regard, no matter how busy they are, they should seize the time to learn, and pay special attention to the cultivation of the ability to receive information, process information, and apply information creatively. As long as we are relentless in our pursuit, the courage to explore, with our responsibility, with our conscience to do a fine job of every job, will create a good situation for the cause of education.

The practice and perception of being a good qualified rural school principal under the new situation
Tang Guangfan of Xinzhou Middle School
( August 26, 2013)
From August 1 to 10 this year, the organization arranged for me to participate in the "National Training Plan" (2013): Hunan Province junior high school principals advanced training short-term intensive training. The training enabled me to further understand today's vivid theories of education and teaching, the latest achievements of scientific school management and the cutting-edge dynamics of the reform and development of basic education, and to have a deeper understanding of how to strengthen and improve secondary school management in the context of quality education, and how to be a good principal of a rural school under the new circumstances. I have more realistic thinking about how to be a good rural school principal in the new situation. Today's forum, I would like to report to you from three aspects, inadequacies, please comrades criticize and correct!
One, facing up to the outstanding problems faced by rural schools
Currently, rural schools are generally facing outstanding problems mainly lies in: First, security. Rural school environment is relatively poor, student activities and food, transportation and other safety accidents may occur at any time, in front of today's legal awareness seemingly no rural students' parents, the school never appear a safety accident, otherwise, the light is the principal of the disciplinary action, pay cuts, dismissal, or imprisonment, the school is not only suffered from the economic losses, and the reputation by the erosion of the impact of the development of the school as a barrier. Obstacles.
The second is quality. In recent years, the city's rural schools, the serious aging of the teaching staff, the subject structure is seriously unreasonable, the conditions of operation is not as good as the city schools, objectively leading to some of the high-quality students flocked to urban schools to share the relatively high quality of educational resources, the quality of education in rural schools gradually lagging behind or even far below the city schools, and their own vertical comparison also shows a downward trend in the whole society is highly concerned about the quality of education of the parents of the students In front of the whole society is highly concerned about the quality of education students' parents, the quality of education in schools can only rise, never decline, otherwise, the light teacher's personal status in the eyes of parents seriously discounted, the principal of the school can not straighten their backs, can not raise their heads, can not say hard words in society, the heavy trigger most of the parents of the school's work of the whining and dissatisfaction, mean to discredit, and even have no choice but to turn away the students to seek another famous school to study in, and so on will certainly form a terrible vicious circle, schools The school will be embarrassed and entangled, the survival and development of unsustainable.
Third, funding. Although the state every year congresses and meetings, newspapers and documents are theoretically required to increase investment in education, but subject to the uneven distribution of resources, urban and rural cumulative differences between the fissure is still expanding, for example, Changde City, almost all schools have plastic playgrounds, their schools are worried about the money is inexhaustible. Rural schools are still seriously underinvested in education, and the phenomenon of running in debt is a major feature of today's rural schools. Debt is a nightmare and a demon that terrorizes and destroys the mind and body of the school, and there is no cure for it. The education of the various inspection and evaluation also continue to add according to the contradiction of school expenditure, so that the loss of both sides, overstretched, snow on the heavy, high debt.
Two, cracking the reality of rural schools in the plight of practice and thinking
1, the principal to self-confidence, self-discipline, self-improvement and training. In the face of heavy difficulties, the principal should be confident, know the difficulties, rather than bend; to focus on the future, rational thinking; to be bold, the first voice, the first rate, one to ten, invincible. Do not be temporarily submerged by the plight of submission and lose self-confidence, otherwise you can not lead your team head high, not to mention good rural education, create performance and career splendor. Second, we must police ourselves. As a rural school principals, we must always bear in mind their own principal, the identity of the leader, to the principal's duties strictly require themselves to have a strong sense of enterprise, a high sense of responsibility and give up the spirit of commitment; to be keen to seek, to seek to do, take the lead in doing, good at resting on their laurels, and the courage to make things happen. Third, self-improvement. Self-improvement is not proud of themselves, not to show off and boast, to self-knowledge: rural school principals are not officials, itself is the pioneer of education and teaching, the explorers of the Council's governance, quality and efficiency of the social focus, both to look at the road and to pull the ascetic. Principals should always be clear about what they should do, how to do, what are the risks, into the geometry. Do not be high above the strange eye round, dictatorial old man first, but respect for members, decision-making democracy, pro-activity, to do: things have to discuss, discuss the decision, decision-making line, line has results.
2, the principal to clarify the scope of responsibilities, Zhang relaxation in order, for their own decompression and efficiency. Today's educational context, what security responsibilities, teaching quality, improve conditions, open source, social security, and endless inspections and street sweeping, garbage picking and other central work, etc., which principal has not been a few times annoyed by the fire? Besides, society, parents and even students, Marxist-Leninist searchlight shining, check their own less, the requirements of the school is perfect, can not afford to have a school "headache and brain fever". The principal as the first responsible person, the pressure is like a millstone, sometimes it is difficult to breathe! Therefore, the principal should be bold and careful, both clear their responsibilities, walking on thin ice, but also busy, timely decompression for their own, so that "grasp the big and put the small" to be able to handle, "something for something for nothing" trade-offs when appropriate. Otherwise, the whole day busy, confused, dizzy, exhausted, quiet down anti-don't understand what they actually do all day. So how to properly de-stress themselves? I think: first of all, to have the concept of hierarchical management, the development of scientific and practical management system, from top to bottom, the channel is open. To clarify the scope of responsibility of the team members and even each staff member, who should be responsible for the matter, it is assured by who to do. But assured is not the same as when the hands of the shopkeeper, hands off. Strive to take over the whole not to take over, handing over not to do. Secondly, to strengthen the sense of democratic management, the establishment and improvement of teachers as the main body of the staff representative meeting system, promote democratic management and supervision, the unit of major issues to discuss and decide. Fully respect the master status of the staff, the school goals, plans, ideas, difficulties in a timely manner to inform the staff, to seek their understanding and support for the school's survival and development of a strong contribution. Sound meeting system, regularly convene relevant meetings, strengthen information communication, broadly speaking, brainstorming, promote democracy, gather wisdom to solve difficult things or their own difficult to consider mature, scientific decision-making. Third, we should be good at "avoidance", learn to resign, know how to concentrate on anti-interference. To fully believe in the potential of the vice-principal and other team members, vice-principal and other members of the team within the capacity of things strictly according to the division of labor to implement the results of feedback. So that the principal can be done in style, no lack of ease and spontaneity.
3, the principal to establish a whole chapter, standardize the school. First, we must attach great importance to the establishment of sound regulations. Only the establishment of a more rigorous, reasonable and relevant to the actual rules and regulations of the school, in order to really put aside the "people control people" cumbersome, can be done according to the rules and regulations to control people. But in the emphasis on the implementation of school rules and regulations at the same time, we should pay special attention to emphasize the flexible people-oriented management, in the process of organization and management should pay full attention to the personal value of teachers, pay attention to give full play to the subjective initiative and creativity of teachers, give full consideration to the school's rules and regulations are conducive to the development of teachers and students, only then can we get twice the result with half the effort, but also in this way, we can really improve the efficiency of school management. Secondly, it is necessary to formulate near-term planning and medium- and long-term goals. To formulate a plan that can be achieved through efforts, and to steadily pursue the achievement of medium- and long-term goals on the premise of constantly realizing short-term goals. Thirdly, we should standardize the behavior of running schools. Strictly in accordance with the spirit of the higher instructions to constrain the principal's school behavior, you can effectively avoid or reduce the responsibility of the school safety accidents, the principal can be less criticized at all levels and types of inspections, but also allows the school to take fewer detours so as to get a healthy, scientific development.
4, the principal to do to stabilize the team of glue. At present, the market economy, the tides, the light of the strange, the rural school teacher exodus has become an indisputable fact. Rural school environment is poor, the conditions are cripplingly simple, poor treatment, want to retain the general teachers are difficult, not to mention stabilizing the outstanding young and middle-aged teachers with a promising future. As a principal, too much blame and whining is futile. Rational and calm observation of the teachers jumping ship, the outflow of the rising and falling, the reason is no more than the environment, treatment and status of the tangled inch of the heart of the problem. We want to keep the "golden phoenix", stabilize the "backbone". With experience, the feasible approach is probably: one is often said that the cause of retention. To meritocracy, to generously give the positive demand for progress in the development of the platform, so that heroes have a place to use, to ensure that the gold will have the opportunity to shine. Secondly, the most critical and shy to export treatment to keep people. To ensure that outstanding teachers, backbone teachers value for money, people make the best use of their talents. To the honor, halo firmly on their heads, science to enhance their status in the school. Third, the environmental conditions for people to stretch their arms and legs to keep people. To strive to improve the teaching teaching and research environment, create good office conditions. Encourage all teachers to study and work organically integrated, from the spirit, material support for teachers to participate in various types of school-based teaching and research on the basis of effective participation in various types of outings to listen to classes, competitions and other teaching and research activities, prompting teachers to establish good interpersonal relationships with each other to achieve the realm of hard to part with. Fourth, emotional retention. Principals should listen more, see more, go more, say more, more exchanges. Discover the merits of the staff, encouragement at the right time, found insufficient, appropriate to be put forward. Convince people with reason, with feelings, reason and emotion, so that each teacher feels that the principal has me in mind. To let teachers appreciate the rich fields of hope in the rural school work and life, although more simple and honest, but can zero in on the rural areas as a teacher is a noble soul, sap pure and full of shiny green leaves, is the heart of the fire burning warm people to lead the way to the happiness of the feeder, rooted in the hilly countryside, work, life and dedication to no regrets.
5, the principal should be distinctive personality, do not follow the crowd. A successful school, it must be a school with outstanding characteristics, there must be a special personality of the principal. The principal must have personality characteristics and avant-garde school of thought, the school teachers must be a creative team, the school students must be a group of ideas and characteristics of students. To do this: first of all, the principal to adapt to the requirements of the times, read the essence of the concept of quality education for all students. Comprehensive understanding of the concept of balanced education, not only to do a good job of cultivating excellence, so that each of the top students have the opportunity to move up, so that the leading geese have a broader sky; but also never give up the "poor" work, so that the poor students have the joy of progress, step by step to climb forward. Secondly, the principal should understand the importance of "full open full course". Principals should be bold and innovative, good at tapping all the resources available to organize a series of interest group activities. Rural schools now have a children's palace, such as language, mathematics, English, sports, calligraphy and painting interest groups and so on. Encourage unbalanced development of students, allowing them to "single subject, single top". This is not only conducive to the casting of special schools, but also conducive to the cultivation of students with personality. Third, the principal should be committed to raising funds for education. To excel in the use of all available resources, widely and actively carry out activities to donate money to schools. Do our best to alleviate the problem of serious shortage of school funds, in the premise of not violating the laws and regulations, try to solve the welfare of teachers, enhance the enthusiasm of teachers to teach and improve their life and happiness index.
Three, looking forward to the future of rural education in Jin City, worry and hope for three worlds
1, there is worry. Education is a systematic project is more of a global project, first-class education is the basis for the formation of first-class national, the whole society's participation in the concerted natural and natural. But with the passage of time and the persistence of economic construction, rural schools in the township party committees, the government's attention to education, support and its responsibility to fulfill should be assumed seems to be gradually shriveled, the scenery is no longer and fading away, leaving a lingering shade, in the rural school principals of the fiery heart covered with a hint of hidden worry.
2, there is joy. In recent years, the Jin City Bureau of Education around the "five for" the overall requirements of the work of education reform, development, has achieved remarkable results, so that rural school principals, teachers are very encouraging, can be said to be happy in the eyebrow, happy in the heart. First, education investment to rural schools tilt. Qualified school construction funds and school maintenance funds by the Education Bureau is responsible for the bottom, the school will no longer meet the assessment of no funds and yellow face worry. Second, the teacher's "five insurance and one gold" and other related policies and treatment by the municipal finance bill, greatly alleviating the pressure of school funding. Third, the newly graduated teacher training students and recruited teachers all teaching rural schools, greatly alleviating the problem of unreasonable age structure of teachers in rural schools. Fourth, the real quality of education as the core of the work of pragmatic grasp steady grasp, the implementation of the quality of education guarantee responsibility system, rural schools to grasp the quality of education by the Bureau of Education's leadership of direct concern and guidance, the effect is more obvious. Fifth, strengthen the centralized training of teachers at all levels and types of teachers, for teachers to update their knowledge, skills upgrading charging oxygen, the overall quality of the teaching force has thus been improved.
3, there is hope. Further regulate the enrollment behavior of the compulsory education stage, the prudent implementation of the educational layout adjustment, strictly adhere to the compulsory education law, "near the school, the principle of enrollment" for rural schools to squeeze the space for the survival and development of rural schools and urban schools in the student nodes are basically in the same starting line, so that the rural school principals and teachers motivation has been mobilized, the rural school principals and teachers. and teachers of rural school principals and motivation to mobilize, improve the quality of education and energy gradually enough solid, Jin City, a better tomorrow of education has been the beginning of the beginning of the end.
