Proposal to hold a competitive examination for principals after school arrangement
The whole country is in the peak period of arranging and streamlining the network of educational and training institutions, with the goal of completion before August 30.
After the arrangement, two arrangement models are applied, including large-scale single-level schools (with branches and school sites) and inter-level general schools. In which, each school only arranges one principal instead of maintaining the number of principals corresponding to the schools before the merger.
Hanoi City has issued guidelines and specific criteria for selecting and appointing principals and vice principals after arranging schools. In many localities, provincial leaders said that the biggest difficulty and obstacle is the stage of arranging and assigning personnel.
Mr. Nguyen Van Luc - former teacher of Trinh Phong Secondary School, Dien Khanh, Khanh Hoa said that to successfully implement this arrangement of educational institutions, teachers are the decisive force, in which the role of the head - the Principal is very important.
First of all, according to teacher Luc, the principal must be a person who is truly dedicated, talented, has strategic vision, and has quick and correct decisions. The principal must ensure 3 requirements in the current period: Being a good leader; a good manager; a talent manager.
The principal is the'soul' of the school. It is necessary to recruit the right people so that teachers and students can be happy" - Mr. Luc said.
Therefore, to choose principals who dare to think, dare to do, dare to take responsibility, teacher Luc proposed to organize a competitive examination for this position. Teacher Luc analyzed that when principals are selected through competitive examinations, teachers will surely be convinced, because they have chosen someone worthy to be the leader, the driver of the education ferry to the destination.
