Three ways of running a school
One: "Two heads are better than one."
As the leader of such a "heavyweight" middle school, he deeply felt the heavy burden on his shoulders. A few years ago, school teaching went downhill, and students, parents, the government and all walks of life were dissatisfied. He didn't flinch in the face of pressure. With their own intelligence, pioneering and innovative. Through groping, they found a way of running a school "12345". "12345" takes teaching as the center, implements two-level management in which principals and grade directors are responsible, implements three management objectives: moral education, subject teaching and school-running benefits, improves the quality of teachers, students' ability and quality, classroom teaching effect and school construction grade, and implements five major projects, such as strengthening schools through scientific research, students' self-care, separate teaching, training young teachers and shaping campus environment. Through the implementation of "12345" in recent years, the school has taken on a new look. Dozens of honors, such as provincial civilized units, provincial advanced schools for patriotic education, provincial advanced units for teaching reform experiments with new topics, national advanced collective for preventing juvenile delinquency, and national advanced units for implementing the National Physical Exercise Standards. The director of Grade Two said with deep feelings: "President Zhou has really mobilized the teachers' sense of responsibility through the exploration and implementation of the strategy of'12345' for so many years, and now his teaching heart is harmonious." Zhou knows that improving teaching quality and cultivating students' quality is the ultimate goal of a school. He said, "If students want to grow up, they must become adults first.". Therefore, in teaching, he always insists on running the school by virtue, establishing the school by virtue, and implementing moral education target management. According to the students' age and psychological characteristics, he prescribed different management "prescriptions" for the students of the three grades: Senior one students should pay attention to cultivating education and laying a good foundation; Senior two students pay attention to quality and ideal future education to improve their quality; Senior three focuses on social education and perseverance education to promote their development. In the process of education, we should pay attention to the combination of traditional education with modern education, school education with society and family education, theoretical education with activity education, and integrate moral education into various activities to improve students' understanding, concepts and self-shaping. At the same time, using the history of the school, students' autonomy and self-care projects are implemented, so that students can participate in school safety, duty on duty, cleanliness and hygiene, school rules and regulations and other management practices. These activities have improved students' grades.
At the same time, Zhou also prescribed three doses of "good medicine" for students' quality and ability, adopting fast-paced, large-capacity, difficult and high-goal talent education for students with good foundation, cultivating their sense of competition and consciousness, laying a good foundation for students with good foundation but forgetful knowledge, improving learning methods, and encouraging and driving them to do well in their studies. Give priority to encouraging students with poor foundation, excessive accumulation of mistakes and passive learning, and help them establish their own practical goals, master appropriate knowledge, strive for qualification, and give full play to their own specialties in order to accept the selection of the future society.
