Characteristics of Anhui Meifoer International School

In 26, in order to further enhance the market competitiveness, the board of directors of Anhui Meifoer International School put forward the development strategy of "going to a prestigious school". This shows that Meifo 'er is shifting from scale expansion to connotation promotion, and the new leap of the century has started from now on. In April, 25, at the third China Private Education Summit Forum, Mr. Lin Shuguang shocked four people with a speech: "The promulgation of the Private Education Promotion Law marks the end of the anarchist era of private education development in China, and a legal and standardized private education era is about to begin. Looking at the legislation from the perspective of interpretation shows that the state and the government have begun to carry out macro-policy regulation and control on private education, which not only raises the threshold for running schools and regulates the behavior of running schools, but also cools down the overheated investment in private education industry. The winter of private education is coming, and all private schools should tighten their belts and prepare for the winter. " This assertion aroused strong repercussions among the participants. Two months later, Meifoer landed in Anhui and invested 5 million yuan to establish Anhui Meifoer International School in Bengbu, a major town in northern Anhui. Later, a reporter interviewed Mr. Lin Shuguang in great confusion. "Why do you judge that the winter of private education is coming on the one hand, and launch high-profile education investment behavior on the other?" Lin Shuguang said: "For bad capital, the winter of private education has indeed come. Although the threshold for investment is high now, there are fewer competitors. As long as you run a school in good faith, this is also an opportunity. " Having said that, people, like journalists, are generally observing the development of the beautiful Buddha in doubt.

● Wan Jin Lixin

In September p>25, at the opening ceremony of Anhui Meifo 'er, Mr. Lin Shuguang said passionately at the meeting: "Be sincere to people, and people will not bully me; Nothing can be accomplished by being honest with things. In ancient times, Shang Yang moved wood to establish a letter. Today, our beautiful Buddha is ready to establish a letter with Wanjin. " Subsequently, Mr. Lin Shuguang announced the scholarship plan of 2, yuan that year on the spot, in order to encourage all teachers and students to work hard and set up a high-quality brand image of Meifoer Education with excellent results. In the college entrance examination in 26, 23 first-time senior three repeat students of Meifo 'er School handed in a satisfactory answer sheet to the society with excellent results of 1% undergraduate achievement rate. The school held a grand award ceremony and rewarded outstanding teachers and students, fulfilling the promise of the board of directors at the beginning of the school.

● Building Honesty

In the 199s, with the rapid development of local economy, Anhui people's demand for quality education began to become urgent, and some private schools developed rapidly, but at the same time, some honesty problems were exposed. People only doubted and criticized private schools. To create a private education brand in such a market, many people are worried about the entrepreneurs of Meifo. Amid all kinds of doubts, Meifo 'er did four things: first, he created a credit system and made the quality standards of Meifo 'er school public; Second, make a quality commitment and accept quality supervision; Third, the teaching and management of the school are open to parents all the time, and parents are welcome to attend classes or visit the school at any time; Fourthly, the system of home visits should be implemented, and the admissions director must make home visits to the students in his area every semester, and inform the parents of the students' achievements and school performance in time. The implementation of these four things has won the trust of parents, students and society. Social recognition has provided infinite impetus for the development of Meifo. In 26, the school-based training base of Beijing Normal University International Art Exchange Center landed in Meifo. In the same year, Meifo 'er passed the inspection and acceptance of China Private Education Association, and obtained the certificate of "National Private School" with Double Guarantees of "Keeping Honesty @ Paying Attention to Teaching Quality". In November, 29, Anhui Meifoer International School won the title of "Outstanding Integrity Demonstration Unit in the 9th China Era that Influenced China" in the "People in China Times" selection activities organized by China Culture and Art Development Promotion Association, Asia-Pacific Economic Times, Influential People Magazine and World Chinese Contemporary Entrepreneurs Association. "Those who govern the world are talented people, and those who become talented people in the world are educating." Anhui Meifo 'er believes that in order to cultivate future generations with "world vision and China soul", we must adhere to the inheritance of national culture and give consideration to the internationalization of education. Only in this way can education present the most perfect state.

● Strengthen Sino-foreign cooperation and exchanges

Anhui Meifo 'er established exchange mechanisms with schools in Australia, Canada and other countries at the beginning of its establishment. Today, inspired by the school-running goal of "going to a prestigious school, being world-class and internationally renowned", Meifo 'er has gradually become a window school for Anhui's education opening to the outside world and actively participated in international exchange activities. Over the years, the school has built a platform for more teachers and students to study abroad or have academic exchanges by exploring forms of cooperation and exchanges between China and foreign countries. Since 26, the school has sent 36 teachers to visit the United States, Australia, Canada and other countries to learn advanced foreign education and teaching concepts. Since 27, the school has established a sister school relationship with Cofield Middle School in Melbourne, Australia. Every year, 3 students are sent to live in Australian students' families to experience Australian students' classes. Since 28, the school has cooperated with the International Education Exchange Association of Anhui Provincial Department of Education in the China-Australia exchange program, which allows senior high school students to study in Australian high schools for one year. By 29, the school has participated in the program for 15 times. In 29, we established academic exchange with British Columbia Middle School in Canada, and sent 25 students to each other for exchange study every year. By building an exchange platform, we can create conditions to the maximum extent so that students can have some time to study and live abroad during their study.

● Keep marching towards internationalization

The development of any school must put a question right: How to position the school? The Meifo people are also thinking. In the overall framework of school-running concept and behavior, Meifo people have positioned the internationalization of education and formulated a feasible internationalization trend for the orientation of school-running. Anhui Meifo 'er set up an international education center, integrated educational internationalization resources, improved the implementation system, divided the contents into specific projects, and implemented project management. The school will set up a full-time and part-time management team to be responsible for the overall planning of the international education center, the teaching management of cooperative education, the development and implementation of international courses, the construction of teaching staff, the planning, organization and management of international exchange activities, the support of international educational resources, the contact with sister schools, and the information technology support and resource informatization construction of transnational long-distance exchange activities. In order to improve the international level of curriculum construction, Anhui Meifoer focuses on strengthening the curriculum construction of English subjects. In order to popularize oral English in the first grade of primary school, small class teaching should be implemented, the number of students in each class should be strictly controlled within 35, and task-based teaching and activity-based teaching should be advocated. The new middle school curriculum highlights diversity, openness and selectivity, and develops school-based curriculum independently. In order to improve the international level of teaching staff construction, Anhui Meifo will increase the introduction of foreign teachers and increase the number of foreign English teachers; English teachers are required not only to have the professional quality of their own subject, but also to have the ability of transnational communication and understanding and the knowledge quality of science and humanities, and to be competent in bilingual teaching; It is necessary to introduce minority language teachers, focusing on the introduction and training of subject teachers who are not English majors. We should also create more opportunities for teachers to go abroad for training, and organize teachers to participate in transnational exchanges and training through distance education. The internationalization of school education is a long-term systematic project, which cannot be accomplished overnight. The Meifo people adopt the strategy of "overall planning, step-by-step implementation and overall improvement" and strive to fully realize internationalization in curriculum construction, teacher construction and student exchange activities in five years. Mr. Lin Shuguang once explained competition, "Competition is not the competition for the first place, but it becomes different and more unique through competition". The competition of school status includes the competition of school hardware facilities, school academic status, teaching quality, market share and reputation. Behind the status competition is the competition of quality, strength and benefit, which is the highest embodiment of the school's comprehensive ability. When it comes to the cultivation of talents, President Liu Tianhua is even more amazing: "The lion must run faster than the antelope, otherwise it will only starve to death; The antelope must run faster than the lion, otherwise, it will only be eaten by the lion. Nature relies on the law of competition to stimulate the potential of species. People, too, are born in sorrow and die in happiness. The best way for schools to train outstanding talents is to create various competitive opportunities and platforms to compete with people. " Since 27, Anhui Meifo 'er has started a weekly evaluation of campus administrative stars. The content of the evaluation is the work done by cadres in a week. Whoever does a good job and is the best will be praised at the weekly administrative meeting, and will take the honorary seat of campus star and the last honor list of campus star. At the end of the semester, the quality of cadres is judged by the number of campus stars. Such an open and fair competition has completely changed the concept of cadres. Not only does everyone do things seriously, but everyone strives to be advanced. There are many kinds of flowers, and people have many kinds of personalities. The school is not a factory, so it can't copy a unified product. Instead, we should carry out active competition, build various competitive platforms and train talents in various opportunities. According to such a talent strategy, the school has carefully designed around the two main lines of education and teaching, and launched a series of competitive activities: campus reading star, campus etiquette star, learning star, learning progress star, English star, art star, science and technology star, and campus teacher selection activity, which has effectively promoted the personality development of campus teachers and students. At present, Meifoer has built a team of teachers with appropriate scale, reasonable structure and good quality. The fourth cornerstone: taking culture as the power of Excellence, a harmonious campus should be the unity of explicit culture and invisible culture. Simple and elegant, natural and solemn, quiet and smart campus environment is the material basis and inevitable requirement for implementing education, which can play a positive role in promoting people's nobility with elegant environment and promoting good education in a beautiful atmosphere. Every grass, tree, brick, tile, wall and room in a school can become the elements of dominant culture and be endowed with educational functions. Therefore, Anhui Meifo 'er attached importance to the construction of campus culture at the beginning of its establishment, and put forward the humanized slogan of "Happy Learning and Happy Growth". Based on "material culture", the school takes "spiritual culture" as the core, takes "institutional culture" as the guidance, and takes a series of campus "cultural festivals" as the main line to create a good material and spiritual environment, forming a "campus culture" with the personality characteristics of Anhui Meifoer International School, making the school a spiritual paradise for students to grow up harmoniously.

● Strive to create a campus cultural atmosphere

"Material culture" is a tangible part of "campus culture". Anhui Meifoer International School has a reasonable layout and complete facilities. The layout of teaching buildings and activity places is orderly, and portraits of world celebrities and inspiring slogans are hung beside the walkways of each building; In the "water park" on campus, all kinds of fish churn up and down, and rockery pavilions are scattered; The school achievement display and the student achievement exhibition hall (students' paintings and calligraphy works) in the stormy playground complement each other; Ancient and modern sayings and celebrity statues not only inspire people to forge ahead, but also enrich the connotation of campus culture. Natural landscape and human landscape reflect each other and are harmonious and unified. The walls are talking, flowers and trees can educate people, showing the book fragrance and purport of the campus, building a beautiful and harmonious cultural paradise for the harmonious growth of students and creating an artistic atmosphere of campus culture.

● Actively carry out campus cultural activities. In September 28, Mr. Liu Tianhua, the headmaster, initiated and carried out a reading festival with "classic reading" as the main body. The school selected "Reading Star" and "Reading Notes" awards, which greatly stimulated the reading interest of students and faculty. To this end, Meifo will take the "Reading Festival" as a measure to sublimate the soul for a long time. In addition, Meifo 'er holds a "Welcome Festival" in December every year to report the growth process of children to parents in the form of large-scale cultural performances. June is the annual "Pearl Culture Festival", which invites teachers and students from the education department of Bengbu City and neighboring brother schools to have fun. The two festivals have been well received by all walks of life, providing a platform for students' talent development. As an international school, under the goal of international development, it is the consistent insistence of Meifo 'er to always take into account the development of national cultural inheritance. Every year on traditional festivals such as Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, the school will hold campus cultural activities with the theme of specific festivals, so as to enhance students' passion for traditional culture. Meifo 'er regularly holds a "Civilization and Etiquette Competition" every semester, which shows students' good behavior of "stressing civilization and knowing etiquette" through activities such as "social etiquette", "campus etiquette", "classroom etiquette" and "restaurant etiquette". In addition, the school will also make the "bonfire party" and "New Year's Day party" on Christmas Eve as the fixed activities of the school, encourage students to actively participate and create a spiritual paradise for students' physical and mental health.

● Make the school a spiritual home for people

Lin Shuguang, the chairman of the school, once said that in school, students should not be the only beneficiaries of the school's development, but everyone on campus, including teachers, logistics personnel and the chairman himself. People often live in three worlds: the secular world, the spiritual world and the spiritual world. People pursue fame and gain in the secular world, and they are jealous. Even if people have the status of teachers, I am afraid they can't avoid customs. The material world is full of pain. The pain caused by secular conflicts needs a tender and affectionate spiritual world to soothe. The heavy teaching burden every day requires the understanding of leaders; Conflicts with students need the help of leaders; When you encounter difficulties at work, you need the care and encouragement of your colleagues. Sometimes, people are really fragile. Therefore, schools must create a culture so that people on campus can learn to praise each other, care for each other and get spiritual comfort from each other. The spiritual world is a world of faith, the spiritual salvation of people in infinite confusion, and the core of people's spirit and value. To measure the development of people's life quality and happiness, we mainly depend on whether people can live freely, freely and contentedly in these three worlds. Therefore, a school that is most in line with the ideal of humanity is to realize everyone's personal value. The humanity of the chairman is to maximize the realization of personal value. In particular, teachers should be helped to realize their own life value, respect their own life value, and be willing to take the initiative to realize their own value. More importantly, under the general conditions that are not conducive to the realization of personal value, teachers should learn to face pressure and be good at adjusting the relationship with the external environment, so as to achieve a state of integrating self-value with school value. It is under the guidance of such a cultural thought that Anhui Meifoer International School is just like a huge ship sailing, full of dreams and heading for the other side of the ideal. Virtue and wealth, learning and wealth, man of great talent, full of ethics. This is not only the standard of cultivating talents, but also the requirement for those who cultivate talents. The hatch of this huge ship, Anhui Meifo 'er International School, is always open to all educational talents in the world. Welcome to join us.
