School management involves all aspects, but the core issue still lies in the management of the teaching team, which is the fundamental prerequisite for schools to achieve sustainable development. To implement scientific management of the teaching team, we feel that we need to coordinate and follow up on the "three modernizations". These "three modernizations" include institutionalization, humanization and professionalization. Among them, institutionalization refers to management measures and is the basis of teacher management. Humanization refers to management methods, which is the key to teacher management; professionalization refers to management technology, which is the foundation of teacher management. The three complement each other and are indispensable.
Institutionalization. "Without rules, there is no circle." This proverb has been circulating for many years. It is the crystallization of management experience and is regarded as a classic of management. It is applicable to all industries. As a team of teachers who have the historical mission of teaching and educating people, naturally You cannot be unconventional and must accept the constraints of rules and regulations. This is actually a commonplace topic, but it is always new. We feel that the teacher management system is not arbitrary. A mature management system should meet at least three conditions, which are reasonable, comprehensive and standardized.
First of all, the management system must be reasonable. Institutions are the product of specific environmental conditions, and they must naturally adapt to the environmental conditions, that is to say, they must have a good match. The teacher management system must conform to the characteristics of the school, the characteristics of the campus environment and the characteristics of interpersonal relationships. Otherwise, the system will be a piece of paper and cannot achieve the purpose of restraining people well. For example: Vocational technical secondary schools and ordinary high schools are both high school-level schools, but they have different student conditions, different school running goals, and hugely different teaching staff. The curriculum settings are also very different. If a vocational secondary school It is obviously unreasonable to insist on applying the rules and regulations of ordinary high schools, because it cannot match the environment, and the system will not be targeted and binding. A reasonable system should also pay attention to fairness. Under such a system, there are only different educators, no special individuals are allowed at all, and no one can exist beyond the system.
Secondly, the management system must be comprehensive. Teaching and educating people is a century-old plan. Teachers should set an example for students at all times, everywhere and in everything. Schools must formulate a comprehensive system to incorporate teachers' behaviors into daily management. At the same time, only by formulating a comprehensive management system can the management of the teaching staff move from "rule by man" to "rule by law." In any school, there should be attendance rules, classes should have a class system, and meetings should have meeting requirements. These are the minimum requirements. In vocational schools, due to the special nature of running a school, there must be corresponding rules and regulations to follow for internships, enrollment, and placement. No matter how important the work is, no matter how special the status, no one can be free from the system and must incorporated into the constraints of the system. From the perspective of management efficiency, the more comprehensive the system and the clearer the responsibilities, the more effectively it can stop the phenomenon of wrangling, and the more it can avoid the waste of manpower, material and financial resources.
Finally, the management system must be standardized. The formulation of rules and regulations must be carried out with caution, through multi-party discussions, extensive solicitation of public opinions, and the formation of enforceable provisions on the basis of full promotion of democracy. A mature management system should have clear entries, distinct levels, accurate expressions, and easy to understand. It should not cause doubts and ambiguities in the words. Otherwise, someone may take advantage of loopholes and find mistakes where doubts and ambiguities are easy to arise. Nowadays, many schools pay great attention to quantitative management and refine the system into numbers, which is very convenient to implement. However, the quantification must be realistic, and the score of the behavior should be consistent with the consequences of the behavior. In order to highlight the enrollment function, some vocational schools stipulate that teachers who fail to complete the enrollment task will be deducted 200 points, and teachers who are absent from work for one day will be deducted 30 points. Obviously, such quantification is unreasonable. Under an unstandardized management system, teachers find it difficult to be in a good mood and lose enthusiasm for their work.
The system is a "minefield" fenced off in the field. No one can turn a blind eye and step on it at will. Otherwise, it will cause damage to the fence, to yourself, and to others. But this "wall" is surrounded by fences after all. Objectively, it mainly serves a warning function and will not block the line of sight. It can completely allow the scenery to be seen through and will not destroy the good mood of teachers enjoying the scenery after work. If there are too many systems, If it is too excessive or too deadly, it is undoubtedly to surround castles with airtight brick walls. Walking on the side, people will feel confused about entering a maze. Everyone will be depressed. The campus is lifeless, and it will even make people sick. The suffocating feeling of being trapped in a cage.
A good system is conducive to forming an orderly group and making all work more organized. This is the basic goal of teacher management.
Humanity. After all, the system is made by people and is a means or tool to maintain good order. It is by no means the ultimate goal of management. The system should comply with the essential requirements of the development of human nature, and should not let the system lead people by the nose and turn people into crawling slaves under a harsh management system. In that case, no matter how big or beautiful the campus is, it will be a stagnant pool of water. But the reality is that the management system of many schools is too harsh, which makes the teachers under management subject to strong constraints and makes them feel extremely unhappy. This distorts the original intention of formulating the management system and the relationship between managers and the people being managed. It is difficult to achieve harmony and unity in a relationship. For example: A certain school has stipulated a strict sign-in and sign-out system. Teachers must sign in 6 times throughout the day within a strictly defined time. In order to prevent teachers from leaving their posts in the middle, a strict irregular check-up system has also been established. Team members do not have to sign in every day. Regularly go to the teaching and research group to check the number of people. In such an environment, the teachers are nervous all day long and dare not even go to the toilet. Except for class, they stay in the office every day. You can imagine how depressed they are. If the leader treats the teacher like a prisoner, the teacher's resentment will suddenly grow, and he will naturally find trouble to deal with the leader. The rule on the school paper is "You are not allowed to sleep on the table during working hours." When the leader inspected the post, he found a teacher leaning against the wall and taking a nap. He couldn't help but write down points in his book. The teacher retorted without fear: I didn't lie on the table. Sleeping? How can this be considered a violation of discipline?
The sky contains every cloud, so it can be vast; the sea contains every wave, so it can be vast and boundless. Teachers are human beings first, and educators secondly. They are human beings with seven emotions and six desires. They need tolerance, warmth, and care. Behind the institutionalized management measures, leaders should not forget to be tolerant and give teachers the necessary human care. The leaders of our school attach great importance to humane management of teachers: if a teacher’s immediate family member is sick, the leader will definitely visit him and give a cordial greeting, which makes the family feel particularly warm and also makes the teacher involved particularly touched; the teacher’s family has special needs If it is difficult, the leader will definitely provide material help. There may not be a lot of things, but the leader represents a unit, and what he sends is the heart and soul of the entire school staff. Teachers have psychological problems, and leaders who are good at observing words and deeds are often quick to help. You can understand the actual situation, and you will definitely communicate in a timely manner. The leader will come forward in person, be sincere, kind and kind, and no matter how big the contradictions and problems are, they will disappear. Although there is a relatively strict management system, in such a humane environment, the interpersonal relationships on campus are very harmonious. People’s hearts are made of flesh, and teachers are all people with a high level of education and moral cultivation. They regard giving as their first responsibility and are easily satisfied in their hearts. As long as you truly respect him and truly care about him, he will have no complaints or complaints. Regretfully, he "bowed down and was willing to be a ruthless ox".
Human nature, like the flowers blooming in the field, is in various shapes and forms, extremely beautiful, dotted with the natural scenery, making every cultivator on the field pleasing to the eye, and the physical and mental fatigue is swept away. A flower blooms, bees fly to sing, butterflies fly to dance, and birds fly to accompany it, leaving a patch of vitality that attracts the attention of thousands of creatures, fills the field with the warmth of love, and makes people feel ecstatic. . This flower can also emit wisps of fragrance, which is elegant and refreshing. It can awaken the conscience of everyone who comes close to it, allowing him to pass on the warmth of others and his own love without reservation.
Humanized management is conducive to forming a united and cooperative group and making the interpersonal environment more harmonious. This is the high-level goal of teacher management.
Specialization. Teachers' work is highly professional and technical. Teacher management should not only restrict behavior, but should also guide concepts and lead technology. Otherwise, teachers cannot achieve professional development and students cannot achieve harmony. The school will not achieve sustainable development if it does not achieve sustainable development. Professional management is a technical means that needs the most attention in teacher management.
To carry out professional management of the teaching team, managers must first be experts in education and teaching, have a broad theoretical foundation, solid teaching techniques, sufficient practical experience, and be experts in education work. A pioneer is a collector of educational theories and a brewer of educational ideas. There is a famous saying in school management theory: “The principal is the teacher’s teacher.
"This is very true and philosophical. If you are a teacher who is not qualified and capable of being a teacher, you should stop managing teachers as soon as possible. If a layman manages an expert, it will be difficult to reach a tacit understanding not only on the technical level, but also on management measures and management systems. It is difficult to gain recognition from teachers, and it is difficult to achieve mutual understanding and compatibility even psychologically. Both parties will feel awkward and unable to create a harmonious interpersonal atmosphere.
Professional management seems somewhat abstract and random. It is far less specific and fixed than the detailed and clear syllabus clauses that restrict teachers' behavior. It is more inclined to grasp the pulse of the teaching team. The key is that managers must be familiar with the professional status of each teacher as a teaching participant. To help them develop their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, managers must be able to accurately perceive the business needs of each teacher, reasonably allocate educational resources, and do everything possible to create opportunities for teachers to show themselves, improve themselves, and develop themselves, such as holding business competitions. , recommending capable people, sending people out to study, and guiding peer exchanges. In order to better achieve the goal of professional management of the teaching team, it is necessary to provide more professional guidance to teachers according to their personality characteristics, such as: guidance. , provide lecture guidance; provide prescriptions and introduce high-quality cases; change minds and explore the art of education; shoulder the burden and determine scientific research topics. It is necessary to bring the teaching team into a prosperous and beautiful environment through in-depth clarification and guidance. Guide teachers to achieve rapid professional growth, achieve harmonious development of body and mind, and make every individual full of confidence and passion.
Teachers are cultivators who use their hard work and scientific wisdom to transform the earth. To be more abundant, make the trees taller and taller, and make the flowers more beautiful, you must study better methods, explore better ideas, and practice better practices during hard work. Only in this way can you achieve greater harvests. Make yourself comfortable. Through self-exploration and practice, you can achieve your goals, but professional guidance is also valuable and can save them from many detours. School leaders must first be an education expert before they can stand at a higher level. Be a beacon and guidepost for teachers to move forward. Teachers can focus on research and teaching as part of their lives, and the entire team can achieve management goals without caring.
Professional management is conducive to the formation of a team. A team that actively explores makes the campus more vibrant, which is the ultimate goal of teacher management.
