The trumpet has been blown for the new term. In order to effectively do a good job in the autumn of 2022 and the new school year, plan early and deploy early, on the morning of 28th August, our school held the new semester opening work conference grandly in the lecture hall of the east campus, which was attended by all the teaching staff of the east and west campuses. The conference consists of the First Plenary Session of the Teachers’ Congress of the Fifth Cimmittee and subject teaching experience exchange.
First and foremost, the first meeting of the Fifth Faculty and Staff Congress was presided over by Qian Zhihong, Chairman of the School Union.
At the beginning of the meeting, all the staff stood up and sang the national anthem together. In the solemn and loud singing, the meeting raised the curtain.
Later on, President Madam Huang Wenli delivered a work report entitled ‘A person of noble character does not need some external means to become famous and people with good character, strong ability and lofty ideals will naturally have others to follow them.’ Madam President reviewed the awards and touching stories of the school in the past academic year, and shared six dreams of Anqing Foreign Language School: Firstly, remain true to our original aspiration and keep our mission firmly in mind; Secondly, we should lay equal emphasis on integrity and ability; Thirdly, our education and teaching should showcase our strength; Fourth, we should pay attention to our physical and mental health; Fifth, we should be models of virtue for others; Sixth, we should provide students with comprehensive care and warm services. Additionally, President Madam Huang Wenli explained the school's priorities for the 2022-2023 academic year. Madam President said that the dream was still there, and we had been working hard! What’s more, in the new school year, facing the new policy and situation and the fierce competition in education, we should do our best to be invincible.
Furthermore, the middle level and above cadres took the oath and all the teaching staff took the oath respectively, which was led by President Madam Huang Wenli and Chairman Qian Zhihong respectively. Every word of the oath reflected the spirit of Anqing Foreign Language School’s staff and their determination to achieve new achievements in the new school year!
Finally, Chairman Qian Zhihong asked everyone to discuss in groups after the meeting, earnestly study and understand the spirit of Madam Presdient's work report, put forward reasonable suggestions conducive to the development of the school, and announced the successful conclusion of the First Plenary Session of the Teachers’ Congress of the Fifth Cimmittee.
In the second part of the conference, Vice Principal Liu Bing presided over the exchange of teaching experience. At the meeting, there were four outstanding teacher representatives, who were teacher Fang Longxing from the Primary Section, Yang Ting from the Junior High Department of the east campus, Wang Yueling from the Junior High Department of the west campus and Wang Qianghai from the Senior High Department. Their sharing was full of wisdom in work and love for education, which displayed their noble feelings of hard thinking and dedication.
Moreover, Vice Principal Liu Bing commented that there is no definite law in teaching, yet there are rules to follow in teaching. Evidently, the four teachers are good at finding and solving problems, thinking and exploring in their daily teaching work, constantly looking for good ways to improve the teaching effect, and have made outstanding achievements and accumulated rich experience. Thus, it is hoped that the speeches of the four teachers will enlighten and benefit everyone, and there will be actions and improvements in the later work. In the meantime, it’s believed that all the teachers will work together, grow up together, pursue excellence, and strive to be excellent teachers of Anqing Foreign Language School.
In conclusion, in the new semester, we have a new standard and a new starting point. With high spirits, high standards and high style of work, all staff will be conscientious, dedicated, diligent and will actively promote professional quality. More noticeably, under the guidance of the school leaders, we will concentrate our minds and efforts and make a good start and write a new chapter for the work of Anqing Foreign Language School in the new semester with a high sense of responsibility and a strong ambition!
