However, in order to prepare for junior high school, it is recommended to study Olympiad and English outside school.
Li Xinyuan No.4 Primary School is one of the famous schools with distinctive features in Chaoyang District. In recent years, New No.4 Primary School, under the leadership of principal Shen Ying, has formed a scientific, democratic and humanistic campus culture by integrating "norm", "strength", "popularity" and "connotation" with good mechanism construction. At the same time, the school actively builds a successful stage for teachers and students, encourages teachers' self-development, trains a batch of optimistic and sunny outstanding graduates, and realizes the sustainable development of the school.
First-line ordinary teachers form a "inspector group"
One of the management characteristics of the new four primary schools is that the front-line teachers without any administrative duties form the "school quality inspector group", that is, the chief problem officer. The function of the inspector group is to supervise and inspect the management behavior and effect from the principal to the team leader, find problems, ask questions and follow up the supervision. This system makes every faculty member become the master of the school, and consciously undertakes the mission of caring for, managing and developing the school, thus ensuring the orderly, scientific and democratic implementation of school management.
"Competition+Cooperation" Stimulates Teachers' Self-growth
The average age of teachers in the new four primary schools is only 32.4 years old. In view of the fact that there are many male teachers, newly graduated teachers and newly transferred teachers, school leaders actively promote the talent management and incentive mechanism of "competition+cooperation" to enhance the vitality and cohesion of teachers and actively promote their self-growth.
The new four primary schools fully respect teachers' dominant position, and school leaders do not engage in "centralized discussion". All middle-level cadres and teaching and research team leaders are produced by competition. This move really activated the cadres and teachers of the school. In the new four small appeared "I am the new four, I love the new four small;" I seek development for the new four, and I contribute to the new four. The enthusiasm of teaching staff to participate in school management is unprecedented, and their sense of ownership and responsibility has been greatly exerted. A series of measures aimed at enhancing teachers' cohesion and sense of cooperation, such as setting up a monthly "happiness award", have formed a good atmosphere of tolerance, frankness and cooperation in the new four primary schools, laying a solid ideological, ability and atmosphere foundation for the steady advancement of curriculum reform.
"Interest+Personality" Cultivate Happy New Four People
When I first arrived at this school, President Shen Ying heard the PE teacher announce the achievement of reaching the standard of PE to the students. At that time, she thought that the students' physical performance had reached the standard, and even improved every year, but the students' physical quality did not improve much, and even declined year by year. What's the problem? What is the purpose of educators' work? Is the purpose of classroom teaching to achieve results or to promote students' all-round development in the true sense? After reflection and discussion, the cadres and teachers of the new four primary schools have reached the understanding that we must never sacrifice what students have for the so-called achievements other than students, even if we get high marks in the exam, it will be the sorrow of our education.
Therefore, in the new four primary schools, they will do whatever is beneficial to the development of students. Form a football team, offer Latin dance classes, children's classic reading and children's philosophy classes. And introduce interest groups such as roller skating, diabolo, traditional hoop pushing and gyro, as well as folk music, wind music, Go, calligraphy and painting, model airplane, science and technology, paper cutting and batik in physical education class. Meet the interests of children and face every child. What the new four primary schools pay attention to is not the competition results, but the release, discovery and excavation of children's nature, interests and potential in the new four primary schools, and the improvement of children's comprehensive quality by participating in various activities.
The new four primary schools also put forward the educational concept of "Let's get rid of happy people here". Let every cadre, teacher and child be happy every day at school, learn to experience happiness, have a sound personality, spend every day of life and lay a solid foundation for future sustainable development. This is the real sustainable development of the school.
