Working with the school management to ensure the wellbeing of children and improve academic achievement

The article deals with the issues of the organization of scientific and methodological support for schools that consistently show downward trends in overall student performance in the course of the Unified State Examination. The basic principles of supporting schools with low-achieving students are described: interaction with the school management, hands-on training, implementation of new models in management activities and educational process. The article also reveals the components of scientific and methodological support technology, involving step-by-step development of education improvement programmes based on the management analysis, internship at schools with a positive learning outcome, post-course support after the implementation of the project in the school, etc. Particular attention is paid to the formation of psychological well-being in the team and its impact on the positive changes, including children with disabilities. The support programme is based on the study of the results of the GIA exam in grade 9 and 11 in Yaroslavl region for the past year, as well as the results of the survey "Effectiveness of the educational environment". The authors of the article conclude that school management can solve the problem more successfully if the professional development programmes that teachers undergo take into account individual characteristics of educational organizations, professional deficits in the school management and psychological well-being of students and teachers.
