Meeting of the Deputy Directors for educational work

The workshop, organized by “Nazarbayev Intellectual School of Physics and Mathematics in Semey” as part of the experience dissemination of the AEO “Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools”, brought together the Deputy Directors for educational work of regional schools. One of the most important areas of schooling is education. The words of the great Al-Farabi, said in ancient times, that “teaching without education is the greatest enemy of mankind,” still have not lost their significance. Therefore, in the era of globalization, the educational work in schools plays a big role in preserving the national identity and values, developing human qualities and instilling these qualities in the younger generation.
At the regular meeting of the Deputy Directors responsible for educational work at the school, the current issues were discussed and the results of the 2018-2019 school year were summed up. “Nazarbayev Intellectual School of Physics and Mathematics in Semey” is one of the guiding stars in the field of education in our region! The reason for this is that the school not only teaches and exchanges with teachers in the region the experience in implementing the updated content of education programs, but also contributes to the formation of a worthy personality in the modern world. In the educational direction, the Intellectual School has done a lot. For example, several urban educational institutions cooperate with us and work as partner schools. Some of them have already reported on the achievements they have achieved through today’s experience exchange.
“Recently we have just started our work taking into account the activities that the Intellectual School implements in educational activities. Despite this, we learned a lot of new things. Every Saturday, our teachers attended lectures of intellectual school colleagues. Our students have also repeatedly participated in joint activities. As a result, we witnessed how the projects as “100 songs”, “100 kyuis”, “100 books”, “Leadership” were introduced into our school, which revealed talents and other aspects of our students. Thanks to these projects, the interest of our students in reading books has grown significantly, they have formed the ability to understand Kazakh songs and kyuis, and their history, as well as the students have learned to independently perform them. At present, all students of our school participate in the project “100 books”, and we also managed to organize an orchestra of dombrists from more than 200 students. A Leadership Council was created under the name of “Talented Youth”, where each of its members not only develops his personal qualities, but also becomes our assistant in the implementation of the social projects. This is our victory in a short period. Further and in the future, we would like to continue our collaboration”, said Ulan Bakytzhanuly, Deputy Director for educational work of secondary school No. 31.
The representatives of schools No. 22, 37, 39 also had the same positive opinion. If one of the schools was able to see the effectiveness of charitable actions within the framework of the project “Serving to Society”, another school admitted that the action “Tugan Elge Tagzym” has many advantages.
“ Education is the most important area in life. Human education is a big responsibility. That’s why we do the hardest work at school. However, we should never be at a stop. The daily events happening in our society quickly attract our children. Our task is to help our students to become conscious patriots who love their nation, country, land, who respect others. Of course, there is no harm in managing the various projects that reveal a child’s personal abilities. We are always ready to give you a helping hand”, said Larisa Abylkasymova, Dputy Director for educational work.
During a one-day workshop, the guests were able to take part in workshops on upbringing and get acquainted with the organization of curators’ activities. The participants also received great information about self-government and a forum of leaders. Today’s meeting was also devoted to the work with parents. Even the discussions on information literacy, literate reading, critical thinking, organized by school librarians, have aroused great interest among many participants. The meeting ended with the feedback of the participants, in consequence of which, it was decided to draw up a joint work plan for the upcoming academic year.
