Improving the professional skills and psychological competence of a teacher is a focused,
jointly organized activity of the administration, methodological association, psychologists and
the teacher himself.
Let us outline some important points, the implementation of which contributes to the
effective organization of the teaching staff, administration, educational institution as a whole:
1. Orientation to the essential updating, the transformation of the goals and methods of the
educational institution. Until the main criteria for the teacher’s activity will be the number of
knowledge acquired by his students, the number of excellent students, correctly written tests, etc.
and so far only such parameters of the teacher’s activity as the ability to form independent,
responsible and proactive behavior among students, partner behavior skills, authority among
students and parents will be mentioned only, the problem of the teacher’s professional growth
will not be solved.
2. Clearly defined goals of teacher’s and administration in relation to the educational
process.
3. The purposeful establishment of mutual communications, the proof of their reliability,
and for the psychologist it is especially important – the establishment of trusting relations with
the teacher and administration. The psychologist needs to distinguish between the true reasons
for contacting him from the administration or teacher. The request may be based on
manipulation, the desire to use a psychologist to change the situation for the purposes of one of
the parties. The teacher can use the authority of a psychologist to strengthen his position in
conflict with the administration. The administration can similarly build its relationship with a
psychologist. In such cases, clarification of the situation is important, and sometimes it is more
reasonable for the psychologist not to take part in this.
Especially significant is the question of the development of personnel oriented towards
existence in conditions of high uncertainty, capable of generating and implementing new ideas,
producing new technologies of professional activity in innovative schools. In such schools, a
system of managerial and organizational support for work with personnel should be developed.
On the one hand, this system serves the functioning of the educational institution, and on the
other hand, ensures its development.
The administration is responsible for creating an atmosphere in the school that promotes
the development of the teacher’s professionalism, helps him to improve his professional skills
outside and inside the school, and informs him about the prospects for school activities.
The administration itself must demonstrate a focus on development and self-development.
To create an atmosphere of collaboration in the team, the following aspect is
recommended:
To organize a system for selecting personnel capable and willing to work
in this particular school.
To do this, the administration informs the applicant about the specifics of the educational
institution, its requirements for the teacher, and the possibilities for his professional growth. It is
also important to understand the professional goals and expectations of the teacher.
A clear organizational structure should be created in the school. The teacher should know
which of the leader teachers is responsible for each direction of work. The school should also
have an information system, focused work to improve management methods and improve the
atmosphere in the team.
The goals of the institution are developed and adopted by members of the teaching staff.
The goals of the organization are formed during the joint planning of the strategy and tactics of
the development of the educational institution (partner management).
