The professional standard of the head of an educational organization accepts proposals

• 3402
• 17.02.2017

The FIRO website presents the current version of the professional standard “Head of an educational organization,” modified based on comments received from the expert community and federal executive authorities. Comments and suggestions are accepted.

The need to develop a professional standard for managing an educational organization (preschool educational organization, educational organization, professional educational organization, educational organization of higher education, organization additional education, organization of additional professional education) is caused by many factors. In particular, project management methodology has become widespread in recent decades in the management of educational organizations. However, the work of many managers today is based on an intuitive level within the framework of the so-called “manual control,” says the explanatory note to the document.

The need to develop a professional standard for the head of an educational organization is related to the requirements of Article 51 Federal Law No. 273-FZ, which determines that candidates for the position of head of an educational organization must have a higher education and meet qualification requirements specified in the qualification reference books for the relevant positions of heads of educational organizations and (or) professional standards.

Currently, the requirements for the qualifications of heads of educational organizations are described in two sections of the Unified Qualification Directory of Positions of Managers, Specialists and Employees (USC), while the description of positions is of an exemplary nature, which makes it difficult to use, as in the field labor relations, and in the field of education.

In contrast to the qualification characteristics presented in the EKS, professional standards describe activities, not positions, and, accordingly, establish requirements for education and work experience necessary to perform general labor functions (GLF) and labor functions (LF) included in them, and not to occupy a particular position.

The problem of professional standards is not new to international practice, the document notes. Analysis of Russian and international professional standards of similar professional activity showed that in the USA and most European countries, a professional standard is understood as a detailed description of the measurable requirements for the results and quality of performance by employees of their functions within a specific type of professional activity (profession), expressed in terms of competencies. For example, in the USA there are three types of professional standards: code professional ethics, which contains ethical guidelines, a code of qualification standards, which contains guidelines regarding the experience and level of education required for the job, and a code of professional standards, which contains specific instructions for performing a particular job. A striking example of professional standards regulating the level of achievement are National Qualifications UK Vocational Education and Training (UKTET), which provide framework qualifications for all occupations and industries.

Professional standards for teachers 2017year - a new phenomenon in Russian labor law. Let’s see what exactly the state plans to implement in this area and for which teaching professions professional standards will apply from the beginning of 2017.

The goals of the introduction of professional standards for teachers by the Ministry of Labor

Since June 2016, Russia began introducing professional standards - documents detailing the level of qualifications that each of the workers listed in them must have. As of May 2017, standards have been approved for more than 35 areas of activity - and the first place among them is the education sector.

The reason for the introduction of professional standards by the Ministry was the unsatisfactory situation that prevailed in determining the qualifications that workers should have in those areas to which the state pays special attention. The norms in force before the adoption of professional standards are only advisory in nature and are not always applied in practice. In addition, some of the descriptions of professions in the field of education were approved more than 20 years ago and simply do not correspond to the current situation.

The state and the president personally see one of the ways to correct the current situation as the approval of universally binding standards for those who work in the pedagogical field. The introduction of professional standards for teachers will solve several issues at once:

1. Determine exactly what qualifications a teacher should have.
2. Provide the necessary training for future workers in this field.
3. Notify educators of the requirements that will apply to them.
4. Involve teachers, educators and professors themselves in raising the level of education in Russia.

General characteristics of professional standards for teachers

Overall professional standard teaching staff is a document on which depends:

Don't know your rights?

• the ability of a particular person to work in the teaching field;
• wages;
• procedure for calculating length of service;
• determining the amount of pension;
• planning a career as a teacher.

In a word, the professional standard of a teacher is a document that not only establishes the basic requirements for a teacher’s qualifications, but also gives a general definition of the activities that this employee conducts.

In general, the professional standard is a framework document and, if necessary, is supplemented by requirements approved in the regions, taking into account local characteristics. In addition, the internal standards of an educational institution may also contain additional requirements for teaching staff.

Draft professional standard for teachers in 2013, professional standards for teaching staff in 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017

The development of professional standards for teachers began long before the date of their planned implementation. The first of the approved projects in this area was the general professional standard defining the profession - “Teacher”. It was adopted in December 2013.

This document establishes a list of labor functions for teachers, educators and instructors, divided into several categories:

• preschool education (for children under 7 years old);
• primary education (grades 1-4);
• basic education (grades 5-9);
• secondary (up to 11th grade).

IN in this case We are talking about teachers working in the field of general education, which every child in Russia has the right to count on. Vocational education is described in separate regulatory documents.

In 2014, no professional standards for teaching staff were adopted, but in 2015, the Ministry of Labor approved 3 professional standards at once:

• for educational psychologist;
• teacher working in the field of additional education (both children and adults);
• teacher involved in vocational training.

Since July 2016, professional standards have become mandatory, but an exception has been made for teachers - for representatives of this profession, the mandatory use of professional standards is dated January 1, 2017.

Content and structure of the completed professional teacher standard

All professional standards are developed according to a single layout, which was approved by order of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation No. 147n dated April 12, 2013. According to this order, professional standards for any employees, including teachers, must consist of the following parts:

1. general characteristics professions. It indicates exactly what the profession is called, what specific activities are carried out by the workers engaged in it, as well as its classification according to OKVED and OKZ.
2. Functional map. This section describes the functions that are included in teaching activities.
3. Characteristics of labor functions. Here, each of the generalized labor functions (in fact, areas of activity) is described in detail, indicating the requirements for the qualifications of a teacher. It also describes the knowledge, skills and specific types of actions that a teacher, educator or teacher performs.
4. Information about the developing organizations.

The specific content for each of the professional standards depends on what specific teaching profession it was compiled for.

As of January 1, 2017, a decree on the introduction of professional standards applicable to all employees performing their direct duties in educational institutions Russia.

It is quite natural that certain requirements will also be presented to the heads of educational institutions, but they have not yet been approved and exist in a draft version. And this automatically means that they can change. According to analysts, the main difficulty in drawing up a professional standard for the head of an educational organization is that in various institutions (schools, kindergartens, colleges, etc.) there are a wide variety of competencies, which must also be taken into account when drawing up an official document.

Why do we need a professional standard for the head of an educational organization?

According to experts, this document can be considered one of the most controversial in modern Russian history. The fact is that it began to be developed back in 2013, but for one reason or another, its adoption and approval was constantly postponed.

At the moment, there is no final data regarding when the document will officially come into force. However, given the fact that the teacher’s professional standard will begin to be officially used in regulatory documentation from January 1, 2017, many analysts expect that the requirements for the management staff of educational institutions will be finalized by this date.

Initially, the requirements for the leadership of educational institutions were ordinary recommendations that could not be paid attention to. But, starting from July 2016, this documentation will gradually be introduced into the domestic education system, and in the near future it will become mandatory not only for institutions subordinate to government agencies, and also for structures managed by private individuals.

The appearance of this documentation itself is not surprising. The fact is that many norms of ETKS, EKS, etc., which were in force earlier, are no longer comparable with modern realities and are outdated. This has led to the fact that they simply do not reflect current situation in the field of education. You can often encounter a problem when conflicts arise regarding people who are put at the head of an educational organization, but whose competence in these matters raises huge doubts.

According to many domestic politicians, education is an area where state control should be present at all stages of education. AND important element this control is to determine the requirements that are put forward to those people who fulfill their professional responsibilities in this area.

In order to change the situation in the field of education, a draft professional standard was developed. The head of an educational organization must meet all the requirements specified in the document in order to be able to fulfill his duties as a manager. In addition, at the official level, this standard will consolidate specific job responsibilities and management skills that any head of an organization in the field of education must possess.

Special attention is paid to functions that must be clearly performed in accordance with the requirements of the current legislative framework. By the way, according to many experts, this is precisely the question that raises greatest number disputes, since the competence of heads of educational institutions of different types inherently have a lot of differences, which mandatory must be displayed and recorded.

However, there is already a preliminary version of the professional standard for the head of an organization in the field of education, which soon has every chance of becoming an official document, mandatory for everyone. However, there is no official information yet about the final date for adoption of the standard, and therefore we can expect that the document will be finalized.

Experts say that adoption of this document will solve a lot of problems in the domestic educational environment. Which have become more active in recent years. It is expected that the approved standard will help achieve the following key objectives:

1. The qualifications of managers will be enhanced, which will certainly have a positive impact on the quality of management of the educational institution.
2. All educational organizations will be under the constant control of the state, which will help to quickly solve problems arising in this industry and prevent the emergence of critical situations.
3. Russian education will rapidly develop in all areas.
4. A qualified manager will be able to significantly increase qualitative indicator education, achieving maximum interaction of all participants in the educational process.

What does the professional standard contain?

Since the professional standard of a manager has not yet been approved, at the moment it exists in a template form, approved in accordance with the order of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation No. 147n. dated 04/12/2013. After its adoption, the draft was not edited, and currently has the same appearance and structure.

In accordance with the order of the Ministry of Labor, the standard must contain several key parts:

• Common data. This indicates the classification of the profession according to OKZ and OKVED codes, and also determines the specific type of professional activity;
• Basic functionality. This part indicates specific functions that must be performed by managers, but this list has a generalized form;
• Characteristics of the functions of a leader. This section is a kind of continuation of the above paragraph, however, here in a more expanded and clarified version, specific requirements for the key functions of an official are indicated;
• Information regarding those organizations, institutions and structures that were directly involved in the development of the document, until the moment it was paid attention to at the highest legislative level and approved as a project document by order of the Ministry of Labor No. 147n. dated 04/12/2013.

In accordance with the established standards, the first section of the document includes the official name of the position (head of an educational institution) and a list of goals that the official must achieve. It is worth noting that this section for management officials of institutions of different types is practically the same, and differs only in OKVED coding, according to which the activities of managers can be divided into several groups:

• Code 85.11, corresponding to the head of a preschool education institution;
• Code 85.12-85.14, which is used for general education institutions (primary, secondary and basic);
• Code 85.21 relating to the average vocational education(colleges, schools, etc.);
• Code 85.22.1-85.22.3, presented for institutions providing higher education;
• Code 85.23 – regulating the training of specialists with higher qualifications;
• Code 85.30 considering professional education;
• Code 85.41, appropriate for additional education;
• Code 85.42, which defines the conditions for obtaining auxiliary education to assist in the performance of basic professional duties.

The second and third sections of the professional standard for the deputy head of an educational organization (as well as for the immediate manager) are essentially complementary. Here, special attention is paid to the specific functions that will be assigned to the official involved in managing the organization.

Generalized functions are presented as follows:

1. Direct tasks that must be performed by the leadership of the organization.
2. Activities and actions related to professional development institutions in order to provide higher quality educational services.
3. Competent management of all resources (both tangible and intangible) that are on the organization’s balance sheet.
4. Carrying out tasks that will enhance the quality and value of research, scientific, educational and production activities within a specific institution.
5. Active interaction with state and municipal authorities, foreign educational institutions and other contractors who are faced with the activities of the educational institution.

As for individual labor functions, given the difference in the competence of the management team in a particular institution, they are considered separately. However, here too there are essential characteristics that a teacher must meet in order to occupy a leadership position. This is about:

• Mandatory presence of a diploma of completed higher education in the field;
• About the walkthrough vocational training;
• Participation in special programs aimed at improving qualifications and abilities (at least once every three years);
• Availability of academic degrees, published scientific and research work(for management staff of universities).

In addition, these sections also provide official names leadership positions. At the moment there are 4 of them - head, director, chief and rector. However, controversial issues often arise on this issue, so analysts do not rule out that in the future this list may be supplemented before the professional standard of a manager is finally approved at the all-Russian level.

Based on the foregoing, we can conclude that the introduction of the professional standard will help modernize and improve the Russian educational system, which will have a positive impact not only on the qualifications of teaching staff and managers, but will also significantly increase the quality level of the system as a whole.

Thus, the professional standard will have a positive impact on the development of Russian education, and will enable the state to control the activities of those individuals who occupy leadership positions.
