El director escolar como líder de la comunidad educativa

Abstract

The success of the school depends to a great extent on the cohesion of the cloister directed to the integral formation of the student; But, sometimes, faced with the search for a solution to a problem, it is divided, which hinders the functioning of the educational center, showing fractures in the pedagogical leadership of the director. In order to provide knowledge on this matter, a review study was carried out based on the documentary and bibliographic review, and on the content analysis technique. Among the main findings are school management as a process that contemplates the pedagogical-curricular, administrative, community and organizational dimensions, which are articulated to achieve greater quality and efficiency in teaching and learning; for which the school director must possess knowledge, skills and attitudes that allow him to know: the norms, plans, programs and principles of bilingual and inclusive intercultural education, the limitations and potential of his subordinates; knowing how to organize the processes that are carried out in the school, unite the wills in a common endeavor, support innovative initiatives, seek self-improvement and improvement of others; as well as being characterized by being fair, empathetic, tolerant, dynamic, assertive, responsible, honest, committed, participatory and collaborative; They must possess skills to build democratic and pertinent organizational structures in which to support their management, which make them a true pedagogical leader. The Executive Council of the center is a body that supports school management. The community of practice is a useful resource to unite the cloister.
