——Be a principal who seeks truth, perfection, and perfection
The 14th standard of “Creating an Educational Culture”: Broadly dabble in knowledge of natural sciences, humanities and social sciences, Have good artistic accomplishment and corresponding knowledge of art appreciation and expression.
"Education is growth, growth is the purpose, and there is no purpose other than growth." This argument was proposed by Rousseau and further elaborated by Dewey. "Education is growth" succinctly and concisely states the original meaning of education, which is to enable everyone's nature and innate abilities to grow healthily, rather than instilling external things, such as knowledge, into a container. The principal's responsibility is to create a good educational environment and build a team of teachers with both moral and artistic skills so that children can grow up healthily and happily. Scientific and humanistic knowledge is on the left, and artistic cultivation is on the right. We must be a principal who seeks truth, perfection, and perfection. We use scientific and humanistic knowledge to warm our souls, use artistic cultivation to enhance our aesthetic ability, and make the campus full of humanities. Care, overflowing with love, embodies truth, goodness and beauty.
How to be a knowledgeable principal?
Principals should improve their subject knowledge and management knowledge while constantly integrating knowledge structures, optimizing knowledge systems, broadening knowledge horizons, getting into knowledge of natural sciences and humanities and social sciences, improving artistic accomplishment, and becoming a A principal who seeks truth, perfection, and perfection.
As a principal, you must understand natural science knowledge, constantly understand the essence of things under the guidance of scientific theories and methods, follow the laws of nature, grasp the laws of things, and act in accordance with the laws of the development of things. , not just books, only facts, only truth, seeking truth from facts, seeking truth and being pragmatic.
Mr. Tao Xingzhi, the famous Chinese educator, once said, "Thousands of educations teach people to seek truth, and thousands of studies teach them to be real people." "True" expresses the most essential requirements of being a human being, and "true" Tao also expresses the most essential requirements of education. The principal should be a "real" person, a person who seeks truth, a person who pursues the truth, and a person who is practical and practical. Seeking truth is the starting point for dealing with people, the starting point for education, the starting point for school work, and the starting point for becoming a qualified principal.
In the school, the status, role and nature of the principal determine that the principal must have correct and scientific values, and use correct and scientific values ??to lead the development of the school, realize his own life value and promote the school at the same time Development of teachers and students. As a principal, you must understand the knowledge of humanities and social sciences, learn to make value judgments on research objects, realize your own life value while benefiting the life growth of teachers, children, and parents, promote the development of the school and society, and be a "stop at The most good person.
"The Supreme Good" comes from the book "The Great Learning": "The way of a university lies in the clear virtue, in being close to the people, and in ending with the supreme goodness." It means that the purpose of the university is to promote upright moral character, It lies in making people abandon the old and embrace the new, and it lies in making people reach the most perfect state. "Stop at the ultimate good" is the highest personality state or the highest personality ideal that a person can achieve in dealing with others.
In the practice of artistic creation or art appreciation, the principal must have eyes to discover beauty and a mind to feel beauty, gradually accumulate some corresponding knowledge of art appreciation and expression, establish healthy aesthetic concepts, and cultivate Noble artistic accomplishment, seeking beauty, appreciating beauty, appreciating beauty, and perfecting beauty in the aesthetic process, so as to achieve a beautiful state and become a perfect principal.
Today’s principals should not be based on scores or achievements. The principals should transform knowledge into literacy and make humanistic care the soul of the principal, the soul of the school, the soul of education, and the soul of everyone. A person's soul. Today's principal should not be a cold person, he should be a person of "great love", a caring person, a warm and warm person. Today's principals should not be divorced from caring for people. They should be people with humanistic care. This is the need for the revitalization of the Chinese nation, the prosperity of the country, social progress, people's happiness, school development, and the growth of teachers and students.
The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out: It is our duty to persist in cultivating new generations who will shoulder the responsibility of national rejuvenation, and to accelerate the development of fairer and higher-quality education. Education is the national economy and people’s livelihood. It is necessary to combine educational development with the actual needs of national development and the long-term goal of national rejuvenation, closely follow the requirements of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, strengthen the top-level design of educational modernization, insist on treating human resources as the first resource, and taking people's satisfaction as the The first standard is to regard improving the quality of education as the lifeline of educational development, to promote educational equity as the basic national education policy, and to cultivate socialist builders and successors with comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, physical and aesthetics. The knowledge of natural sciences, humanities and social sciences and art is one of the basic knowledge and qualities for the all-round development of people.
To create an educational culture in schools, the principal must first change himself, extensively dabble in natural science knowledge and humanities and social science knowledge, and have good artistic accomplishment and corresponding knowledge of art appreciation and expression. Only then can he change teachers, and thus Change schools.
The principal is the director and decision-maker.
The direction of the principal determines the direction of the school's connotation development, the height of the principal determines the height of the school's connotation development, the depth of the principal determines the depth of the school's connotation development, and the strength of the principal determines the strength of the school's connotation development. The school's creation of an educational culture should be based on caring for children and conducive to their growth, and the initiative lies in the hands of the principal.
Only when the principal has teachers in his heart, can the teacher have children in his heart. The principal must stand higher, farther, and wider than the teacher in order to lead the teacher's growth; the teacher must stand higher, farther, and wider than the child in order to guide the child. Because the principal is a "teacher among teachers." We require teachers to educate children and lead by example. Similarly, principals who lead teachers to grow also need to lead by example and set an example.
Teachers must be professional, and principals should be even more so, because a good principal can make a good school. Compared with the professional development of teachers, the professional development of principals has higher and stricter requirements.
Buffett, the world’s investment god, has a famous saying: “The smartest people in the world are the ones who are most willing to invest in their own brains!” A person is the biggest, smartest, most long-term, most effective, and most Real investment is to invest in your own brain so that you can continuously increase your own value and realize your own value.
The person you were yesterday makes you who you are today; the person you are today will make you tomorrow. Our continuous learning is a process of continuously adding value to ourselves and a process of continuous growth.
No one is born to be a great principal. The only way to become a principal who seeks truth, perfection, and perfection is to learn, and only to learn extensively throughout life.
Learning is the ladder of human progress. If you don’t learn, you will fall back. When a person stops learning, he stops progressing and growing. If the principal does not study, his vitality will shrink, his creativity will diminish, his influence will disappear, and the school will slow down its progress. A person who is eager to learn may not necessarily be a principal, but a principal must be a person who is eager to learn. The first is to study with problems, be targeted, and apply what you have learned; the second is to study around major events and issues, and do not cast the net all over the sky. Use even force to pick up sesame seeds but lose the watermelons.
1. Thinking principles?
The principal himself is a thinker. In the process of extensive research, we should not forget to think and do things blindly. More importantly, we should learn to reflect and think, and strive to get twice the result with half the effort. Professor Zhu Yongxin, the initiator of the new education experiment, once said: Successful people are always good at thinking. While working, learning and thinking, constantly summarizing work methods, adjusting work rhythm, and reflection are important qualities of successful people; losers are also busy. I work hard and work hard, but because I deviate from the direction, I often go in the opposite direction, and my efforts are in vain.
2. Action Principle
Success = firm goal + scientific method + diligent action. Without action, no matter how rhetorical you talk, it will be of no use. Action is the beginning of success, waiting is the source of failure.
3. Principle of Accumulation
Principals should "be broad-minded and make reservations, accumulate thickly and make little progress". We must calm down to accumulate knowledge, energy, and culture, so as to be fully prepared for future development.
4. The principle of attentiveness
The principal should be a "careful person", pay attention to everything and everywhere, practice it personally, engage in extensive research, and constantly enrich, improve and develop himself.
Reading is a process of dialogue with thoughts and generation of wisdom. The author integrates his thoughts and opinions into the text. We must appreciate it carefully and appreciate the charm of the text. Principals should not only read professional books, but also extensively read various books to enrich themselves. When reading books on natural sciences, humanities and social sciences, art, etc., it is the starting point for the school to create an educational culture and the starting point for becoming a qualified principal.
As a principal, you must put down your airs, crouch down, listen to the voices of children, teachers, and parents, and constantly improve your working methods. Including listening to lectures, listening to the radio, listening to music, and attending classes.
Listening is a one-way output, and dialogue is a two-way output. The dialogue should be democratic and equal, with each of you and I opening our minds to each other and accepting each other; the dialogue should also be interactive, because only through interaction can the topics of mutual interest to us be pointed to profound, novel and rich topics. Inspiring.

Faced with the heavy responsibilities that should be shouldered, the principal's choice is to do it or not to do it, but if he doesn't do it, he will never have a chance. No matter when you start, the important thing is not to stop once you start.
The dream is in the distance, the road is at your feet! We're leaving now!
