The August Teachers Council at the school is a traditional event. It is just before the start of the new school year that it is customary for teachers to take stock, identify the positive and negative results of academic and extracurricular activities over the past period.
Teachers Council Script
We bring to your attention a ready-made script of the August teachers' council. Its main task is to analyze the results of the academic year, search for prospects for the subsequent development of the educational institution in the light of the modernization of Russian education. It is necessary to start such an August teachers' council at school with a greeting from all teachers, introducing young specialists to the team, as well as teachers who returned to school after maternity leave.
The structure of the teacher's council
The director analyzes the results of a survey of students aimed at identifying the level of comfort in the school team. Based on the results, the head teacher of the school voices a range of issues that were submitted to the meeting of the teaching staff.
Form of work
In order to make the August pedagogical council at school as efficient as possible, the entire teaching staff is divided into several groups. Teachers are offered specific topics for discussion. For example, the methodological association of primary school teachers is looking for ways to improve the professional skills of teachers. Teachers of the Russian language and literature analyze the problems associated with preparing students for passing the exam and the exam. During such a brainstorming session, each microgroup develops its own activities that are aimed at solving the identified problems. Such an August teacher's council at school is suitable for those educational institutions in which creative and vibrant teachers work.
Setting goals for the current academic year
The director’s speech at the August pedagogical council involves several stages. First, those teachers who showed excellent results are awarded, whose students became winners and prize winners of olympiads, contests, conferences of various levels. Then the main face of the school poses new tasks for the teaching staff:
- improving the quality of education;
- implementation of federal educational standards of the second generation;
- improving the system of extracurricular activities;
- the implementation of vocational training for teachers.
After all the main points of the coming year will be announced to the teaching staff, the director passes the floor to his deputy for academic work. His speech at the August Pedagogical Council involves a complete analysis of the results of the Olympiads, research and design activities. In addition, in the form of graphs, the head teacher presents to colleagues a comparison of the quality of training over the past 2-3 years. The question of the effectiveness of passing the final certification in compulsory subjects (Russian language and mathematics) and academic disciplines that were chosen (optional) by students of grades 9 and 11 does not remain without close attention.
The head teacher builds a report on the August pedagogical council on the basis of the priority areas of work of this educational institution.
Speech Option
Modern education must solve a responsible and difficult task - to educate the multifaceted personality of the child. Young people who are focused on spiritual values and cultural norms should come out of the school . Particular importance is given to the formation in the younger generation of patriotism, love for the native land, and one's Fatherland. The theme of the August teachers' council: “Reading as a way of forming a harmoniously developed personality”. The influence of such a subject as literature on the harmonious development of schoolchildren is undeniable. That is why such attention is paid by the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation to the teaching of this academic discipline in educational institutions. Literature influences not only the development of the personality of schoolchildren, but also the formation of moral qualities in it. The importance of reading was spoken by V. A. Sukhomlinsky. The great Russian teacher noted in his writings that reading is the source of spiritual enrichment of a person. He believed that reading is that window through which children get acquainted with the world around them, learn their own "I". According to V. A. Sukhomlinsky, an indicator of the spiritual potential of society itself directly depends on the reader’s culture.
GEF in education
The theme of the August teachers' council was not chosen by chance. According to the new federal educational standards , training is not limited to the process of mastering certain skills, knowledge, competencies, which in total represent the instrumental base of the educational work of schoolchildren, presented in the form of meta-subject and subject learning results. It is supposed to devote special attention to the process of personality development for a schoolboy.
If the standards of the first generation did not give proper attention to the development of the individuality of each student, then after the modernization of the Russian education system, the situation changed. Now one of the basic requirements for quality education is precisely the individual development of students.
The significance of OUN
Universal personal educational activities involve self-education, moral and ethical assessment. They are impossible without the educational examples and images that exist in Russian classical literature. The script of the August teacher's council is based on the well-known works of Russian classics, whose reading contributes to the formation of a spiritual and mature personality of students. Guys who love the work of Russian writers and poets become active and creative personalities. Classical literature helps them to maintain moral purity, spiritual wealth.
The Teacher’s Newspaper presented the concept of upbringing and personality development aimed at enhancing the spirit of patriotism in the younger generation. It is in this document that the concept of “national modern educational ideal” is contained, implying the upbringing within the walls of general educational institutions of competent, creative, high-moral citizens who are able to take an active part in the fate of their country, who are able to be responsible for their actions. The head teacher of the school in his speech emphasizes the relevance of innovations in the teaching of literature aimed at preserving and reviving the cultural and spiritual traditions of the multinational people of our country. The Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation determined the basic human values that should be reflected in the personal results of individual training. The following terms are attributed to them:
- tolerance,
- cooperation,
- understanding,
- control,
- moral,
- responsibility,
- competence,
- profession,
- values
- work.
The personality in this aspect is considered as the totality of a person’s relationship not only with the outside world, but also with himself.
Teacher Speech
Due to the relevance of the material relating to determining the direction of the school for the next academic year, the teachers ’performance at the teacher's council is connected with the spiritual and moral education of the younger generation based on examples of classical literature.
The work “The Formation of a National Moral Ideal Based on Russian Classics” is relevant for the theme of teachers' councils related to moral education. Teachers distinguish a sublevel and three levels of formation of the tolerant personality of the national ideal. At the teacher's council, the main criteria are considered, according to which for each level you can distinguish your own system of values.
- “Positive conformist” is a schoolboy who has mastered the system of all the values of the national ideal, but cannot use knowledge in everyday life.
- A “value vehicle” of an ideal that has adopted a system of values, but does not realize the importance of their application.
- “Translator” implements a value system in real life, has a clear idea of moral and civil-patriotic norms.
The teacher speaking at the teacher's council emphasizes that with a detailed analysis of the works of Russian classical literature, we can conclude that there is a significant change in the requirements for morality.
Academic Year Plan
It is at the August Pedagogical Council, which is held according to tradition in the last days of summer, that the topics of teachers' councils for the entire academic year are considered. The main directions of the methodological work of the teaching staff are selected, taking into account those main trends that are selected as priority areas in a particular educational institution. For example, if the school focuses on moral education, the program of the cadet movement is being worked out. In the educational institution, where the direction of activity is associated with extracurricular activities, various circles, clubs are being studied, their relationship with the learning process is being considered.
It was in August that the teaching staff considers the candidates of those teachers who deserve encouragement, the candidatures of colleagues nominated for various departmental awards and diplomas are read out. Among the distinguishing features of the first pedagogical council, organized after a long summer vacation, is the celebration of those teachers who have decided to complete their professional pedagogical activity. For them, colleagues prepare special gifts, words of appreciation and support.
August teacher meetings
As a motto for the August meeting of educators, we can take the words of A. Disterweg: "The teacher himself is the most important phenomenon in the school, the most instructive subject, the most vivid example for the student." In addition to school events, meetings at the district level have become traditional. Their topic is chosen by representatives of municipal authorities, associated with the main tasks that are set by the government and the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation to the pedagogical community. Preparations for such a responsible and important event are carried out in advance. Everyone who becomes a participant in such a meeting should receive adequate information that will be required in the process of subsequent pedagogical activity.
Conclusion
Given the specifics of the national policy in the field of education, the topics of the August pedagogical meetings are determined by the educational institutions themselves, and municipal authorities. The approximate structure of all such meetings is approximately the same. First, the results for the past year are summarized, the best pedagogical practices are revealed, then the main problems are analyzed, and ways to solve them are determined. The final moment of any meeting is considered parting words of the head of the school and the education department, as well as a small festive concert in honor of the best teachers.
