Reliability is paramount quality
At first glance, it seems that the responsibilities of the organizing teacher at the school do not imply too much responsibility, but this is not so. In addition to the high-quality fulfillment of his functional, he is responsible for the moral and spiritual development of students, which requires him to devote enormous dedication and the ability to build a work process in such a way that all plans are executed in a timely manner.
In some cases, the teacher may even suffer material damage, for example, if an office with various property is assigned to him. However, very responsible people who try to prevent violations in their work, as they well understand the consequences of their mistakes, are most often taken to the post of school organizer.
General functionality
The functional responsibilities of the teacher-organizer in the school directly depend on the type of educational institution. As a rule, such a position exists in those institutions where additional education is a complex and structured system, in which students, teachers and parents are involved. The teacher must be able to attract children to various activities in such a way that its purpose and the final result are fully consistent with the expectations of the teaching staff and parents.
In parallel with this, the teacher must also conduct educational work, the result of which is the presence of every child's opportunity to reveal his talents. Children need to be prepared for joint communication with each other, to be able to choose values that are relevant to themselves and to form a friendly and trusting atmosphere in the team. If necessary, the teacher, acting as the organizer of the school, must perform a representative function, namely, to conduct a dialogue with various state and non-state institutions aimed at protecting the rights of children.
The pedagogical basis of work
Over the past few years, the requirements for the job responsibilities of the organizer teacher have changed significantly: life skills training at the school is also most often taught to them. Thus, he must teach students not only the safety of life, but also responsibility for the world around them. Such a teacher needs to put the humanistic ideology of education at the forefront of his work in order to achieve high results.
The works of Makarenko, Machiavelli and other pedagogical experts will be the main ones on the organizer's list of handbooks. If we consider the modern theoretical provisions of pedagogy, then the works of V. Andreev, I. Kolesnikova, I. Yakimanskaya, V. Bezdukhov deserve some attention. Scientists believe that the teacher should be a widely developed person with the ability to win over absolutely any child and adult.
Through leisure to culture
All cultural and leisure activities that are carried out in a general educational institution always comply with educational methods. The organizing teacher at the school, whose responsibilities include its implementation, should organize the work in such a way that during the course of it young Russians form an attachment to the culture of their country. With the help of proven leisure techniques, children will be able to learn to understand and analyze the global cultural fund, as well as respect small ethnic groups and their characteristics.
It is important that when organizing leisure activities, the freedom of the child’s personality is taken into account. Ideally, he can independently choose the time, place and form of his vacation. To provide a child’s personality with a chance to open up and not leave the child alone with his thoughts is the main task of the teacher. The main competitors of the organizing teachers are computer games. Teachers usually show children other options for recreation, which can be an order of magnitude more interesting and useful.
Leisure should be affordable, and it will be interesting if as many children as possible take part in it.It is desirable that it be organized on the principle of initiative, then all participants in the process can be realized not only in individual but also in collective activity. With the competent organization of the cultural and leisure process, a person can gradually become an active person who lives in harmony with himself and society.
Chief assistants
Fairytale wizard - this is how often students perceive the organizing teacher at school. His responsibilities can be qualitatively fulfilled only if he is in constant contact with his parents. Absolutely every class has its own mini-advice, consisting of the most responsible moms and dads. It is he who decides on how their children's leisure should be organized.
If we are talking about the internal activities of the school, help from parents is rarely required, teachers usually cope on their own, inviting moms and dads to the holidays as spectators. But planning a trip, for example, to a museum or a toy factory, will require additional help from the parent committee. The organizing teacher, acting together with parents, can prevent a number of problems - the early use of nicotine and alcohol by children, petty offenses and criminal offenses.
Approach to everyone
All events held within the walls of a general educational institution should be built on the age and behavioral characteristics of students. The organizing teacher at the school is also responsible for this, whose typical job responsibilities take into account the need to use various forms of recreational activities. In particular, for students under 10 years of age, those should be used in which children receive accurate instructions and also feel protected.
Children aged 11 to 13 years are extremely subject to peer influence, and they need a teacher who is able to tame energy that pours over the edge, and then direct it in the right direction. Collective activities of a creative nature are one of the most suitable leisure activities. Parties, sporting events, as well as activities that can bring any benefits to the child are perfect here.
Teenagers, whose age is from 14 to 17 years old, strive to develop their own personality and demonstrate it to the world. The organizer is needed here as a more experienced comrade who can give good advice. As the most interesting events for children, you should use the author’s evening, discos, trainings and various forms of activities useful for society.
Other options for the development of students
Parents strive to comprehensively develop their children, so students often get additional education. Quite often, the work of the corresponding unit depends on the organizing teachers in schools, the responsibilities and salaries of the latter in the case of the successful formation of training programs can grow significantly. It is not necessarily a question of recruiting children for the development of any additional discipline, this was true 10-15 years ago.
Teachers who have been able to prepare their students for participation in various competitions and events can put the success of their students in their own portfolio. The latter usually helps in obtaining a new category, as well as pedagogical awards of various types and levels. The more rewards a teacher has, the higher his chances of a higher salary and career growth, so he himself should be interested in this.
What is the difference between the work of Russian teachers from Belarusian?
There is an opinion among Russians that Belarus is the keeper of the traditions of the USSR and that it was she who managed to keep the traditions of teaching skills intact.In part, this assumption is true - teachers in the schools of the Republic of Belarus are much more strict in fulfilling their duties, here, special emphasis is placed on ideological work, and educational activities are carried out together with parents.
The list of tasks for teachers with a similar status also includes the organization of summer holidays for schoolchildren; in Russia, this functionality usually falls on the shoulders of parents. The school organizer is responsible for the participation of children in various events - conferences, competitions, rallies and exhibitions. Particular attention is paid to the personal growth of the teacher.
Qualification requirements in Belarus
If the responsibilities of the organizing teacher in schools in Belarus and Russia are similar, then the requirements for him are significantly different. In Russia, a teacher holding this position is required to have a higher pedagogical education, which can be replaced by secondary specialized education in combination with specialized retraining. Work experience in this case does not play a role.
In lyceums, gymnasiums and colleges of Belarus, the requirements for the teacher-organizer are much higher, he must have a higher pedagogical education, otherwise he simply will not be allowed to work. They simply won’t take anyone in this position, since the planning and implementation of cultural and leisure activities is a very responsible process.
Risks for the teacher
The combination of two senior positions never goes unnoticed. If the teacher successfully fulfills the duties of the organizing teacher, life skills training at the school can be taught through the sleeves. It doesn’t matter which subject he is teaching, if harmony is not achieved, the lessons of this teacher will be aimless and uninteresting. That is why school administrations are trying to allocate a separate rate for this functionality or to attract an experienced teacher who has a long-established teaching process to the position of the organizer.
As a means at hand, such a teacher can use his assistants from among the most responsible high school students to whom a certain functional can be delegated. At first, you will have to control the implementation of the tasks, but in the future it will pay off handsomely.
