The school’s activities are always aimed at fulfilling some specific goals and objectives of training and education, and at obtaining specific results of the pedagogical process. It is impossible to imagine a school that did not think what tomorrow would be for the school team, what graduates would grow up, i.e. The school always builds its work on the basis of planning.
And planning, as a rule, always begins with determining the goals and objectives of the school and collecting information about the possibility of achieving them. But at the same time, one can not do without an analysis of the past stage, without identifying various achievements and shortcomings. Therefore, one of the most important means of increasing the effectiveness of each event held at school or improving the entire educational process is to analyze the work of the school. Helping to determine the causes of the deficiencies that have arisen, it is the basis for further improving the management of the training and education process.
A properly conducted analysis of the school’s work is the identification of high or low, positive or negative work results, the identification of the reasons that led to success or failure, this is the identification of ways to further develop the school or eliminate deficiencies in work. The effectiveness and efficiency of the administrative activities of the school administration largely depends on how the head knows the methodology of pedagogical analysis, how he knows how to investigate established facts, and how he accurately identifies the most characteristic relationships.
The ability to analyze is the daily primary task of each head of the school, but it is especially important at the end of the school year.
What are the types of pedagogical analysis of the school? Depending on what is being analyzed and what its purpose is, one can distinguish parametric, thematic, and final analysis.
Parametric analysis is the study of everyday information about how the educational process goes, its results and finding the reasons that violate it. The subject of this type of analysis is the study of discipline, current performance, attendance, adherence to the schedule, the health status of the school, and much more. With this type of analysis, the leader does not just state the facts, but compares them, summarizes them, searches for the causes of their occurrence and predicts the consequences. The result of parametric analysis is usually decisions that need to be quickly implemented.
When studying dependencies that are constant or often repeated, a thematic analysis of the work of the school is used. The content of such an analysis shows a systematic approach to the study of the educational and educational process. The subject is usually a system of lessons, a system of educational activities. As a result of a thematic analysis, the leader can get a complete picture of the work of the teacher, class teacher, and the whole team. The subject of such analysis may be, for example, improving the student knowledge system; the formation of the pedagogical culture of the teacher; the activity of the pedagogical team in any one direction; the system of work of the class teacher to educate students of moral concepts, etc.
Thematic analysis enables the head of the school or his deputy to study and identify the features of individual aspects of the pedagogical process and their interaction. In the course of a thematic analysis, the school principal prepares the contents of the final analysis of the work.
This type of analysis covers a fairly large time, meaningful and spatial framework of the institution. Usually it is held at the end of each stage of the school year. General information for the final analysis is obtained from the data of parametric and thematic analysis, the results of the final tests, from reports and references.
A lot of information for the final analysis is provided by the analysis of intra-school control, which is closely connected with all the functions of managerial work. He usually gives complete, systematic information showing the discrepancy between the goal and the result, and pedagogical analysis reveals the causes and conditions of these discrepancies.
The final pedagogical analysis of the school, of course, covers the educational process, allows you to see the relationship between the educational work of the school teacher and the level of education of the student who participated in the educational process. Each educational event is one of the moments of the general system of upbringing and personality development, contributing to the solution of specific problems. And how successful it will be, the outcome of the entire educational process will depend. Therefore, a comprehensive analysis of the activities at school is an obligatory stage of the educational process, giving facts for the final analysis.
A detailed, comprehensive analysis of the school’s work, covering all areas, involves a detailed study and discussion of all aspects of the institution’s activities and is aimed at clearly, reasonably planning the school’s work at a new stage.
