The prestige of educational institutions, both private and public, largely depends not so much on technical conditions as on competent competent management, highly qualified teaching staff and active participation of institutions in competitive events that determine the guidelines for the constant development of educators and teachers.
Usually, such contests define prospective DOUs and offer a tender base for sponsorship funds and further development. The competition implies several degrees of selection. Before a detailed inspection of institutions, schools and kindergartens Must pass a formal presentation. This is the so-called business card. Several teachers / educators are nominated for the competition from the educational institution with their program - a visiting card.
The main criteria for the estimation
- Technical equipment (lighting, heating, computerization, etc.).
- Qualification section of the teaching staff (testing, trainings, etc.).
- Objective result-statistical analysis of the competencies of students (the level of development of pupils: linguistic, sporting, artistic, etc.).
The methods of evaluation and criteria may vary depending on the profile of the institution.
Below are a few of the most effective ways to attract the attention of the jury and maximize the benefits of a competing subject.
Brochure
The most time-consuming, costly, but memorable option is a photobook-brochure in the form of a glossy magazine with a design design. Such a visiting card for the contest is able to impress with its laconic eloquence, but the brochure-journal requires really great work, a creative approach and significant financial costs. After all, each member of the jury must provide one copy of the photobook. In addition, short comments in the brochure will need to be supplemented with a rather detailed account of the institution, the main priorities and policy of the leadership. This, in turn, creates additional inconvenience: the jury will have to either listen to the presentation, or look at the photographic material in the brochure. In any case, a photobook is an excellent auxiliary element of a business card.
Presentation
One of the most interesting and obvious ways to demonstrate the high professionalism of the teaching staff, the methods of upbringing and the technical conditions of the DOW is a visiting card for the contest in the form of a Power Point presentation. The original beginning of the presentation is a zealous song in the choral performance of children. As a rule, a slide show of photos of students and active participation of educators in game moments alternate with the display of creative works of pupils (drawings, applications). The joint work of parents, children and educators (graduation and festive morning performances, photo teachers at parents' meetings, excursions and improvised theatrical productions) is highly valued. It is recommended to focus on developing circles, artistic, language, speech therapy and music classes. To finish the presentation, it is better to have a short greeting slogan against the backdrop of summer garden arbors, a nearby park or other recognizable places of the DOW.
Video
A bright, original visiting card of the tutor for the contest is a small video presentation (20-40 minutes) where the teacher can highlight the most important aspects of upbringing in practice and demonstrate the conformity of the state educational program and priority methodical directions of the DOW through the prism of his professional educational activity. Most of the video is devoted to demonstrating the effectiveness of didactic materials-collections, orientation to the upbringing of a harmoniously developed personality. As part of the presentation, many experienced teachers make such winning accents as a student's card. The competition is not forbidden to attract talented high-school students and activists, many specialized sports boarding schools use this, without false modesty and proudly presenting young medal winners and children's competitions winners (for example, in rhythmic gymnastics).
Auctions and concerts
Original ways to attract the attention of potential sponsors for the school, the training center, the art school-studio or the children's music academy are the active agitational policy of the leadership and the holding of such events as commercial auctions, concerts and demonstrative performances of gifted pupils. Such a The original commercial business card for children's competition or tender competition, without a doubt, can become a winning one in all senses of the word.
Interactive courses, seminars and trainings
Preliminary preparation for the competition ensures the competitiveness of the school / kindergarten even without the necessary level of technical equipment. A business card of the child submitted for the competition, and not necessarily a pupil of the institution, can be a central element in the comprehensive and detailed final evaluation of the pre-applicant candidates for the first places. Public activity of a specialized school implies an increased interest in teaching in such institutions. Interesting practical interactive musical and sports classes, free courses for disabled children and their parents living in the area (for example, language courses), seminars or professional trainings, as well as charitable actions for orphans, summer children's playgrounds, and charitable Concerts in the houses of mercy, no doubt, will not be left without public attention. Such events guarantee additional bonuses and will serve as a noble self-promotion, increase the prestige of the school, and also the visiting card in the contest will increase the chances of winning it.
