Despite the fact that the position of a psychologist was introduced in educational institutions in 1988, there are still no established ideas about the content and forms of his professional activity. As a result, the subjects of the educational process often make demands on it that are not characteristic of its role. For example, the administration often offers the psychologist classroom guidance, and sometimes the teaching of academic disciplines (especially when the psychologist also has a pedagogical education), seeks to monitor his activities in detail, and requires a report on the results of diagnostics and counseling. The teacher expects support from the psychologist in realizing his usual style of pedagogical communication and help in manipulating students and their parents. In turn, the parents hope that the psychologist will protect their child from the "school negativity" and at the same time authoritatively confirm the "correctness" of family education. Children, if the psychologist manages to establish a trusting relationship with them, look for an older friend and protector in him. It is easy to see that in many ways these expectations are contradictory.
A teacher-psychologist of an educational institution is an independent specialist and an equal member of the teaching staff who is responsible for that side of the pedagogical process that no one else can professionally provide, namely, for the mental development and psychological health of children and schoolchildren. It should be noted that, being an equal member of the team, a teacher-psychologist in an educational institution takes its definite place in the entire educational process.
In various educational institutions, the teacher-psychologist is assigned different tasks, which depend not only on the type and type of the given institution, but also on the administration's requests for the role of a specialist in a particular educational institution.
The most pressing problems faced by the educational psychologist are: the difficulty of defining one's role in a given institution, the problem of taking a worthy place in the educational process, the difficulty of defining one's responsibilities that are not in conflict with the general concept of the educational institution.
The main activities of a practical educational psychologist are: psychological education, psychological prevention, psychological counseling and psychodiagnostics, psychocorrection and development. All these types of work in practice exist only in unity, in interaction. In any particular situation, each of the types of work can be highlighted depending on the problem that the psychologist solves, and on the specifics or profile of the institution where he works.
In general, specialists carry out professional activities aimed at preserving the mental, somatic and social well-being of children, their optimal personal development and social adaptation, contribute to the protection of individual rights in accordance with the Convention on the Protection of the Rights of the Child, and take measures to provide various types of psychological assistance.
In various literature published at the present time, consideration of a number of organizational problems is practically omitted, which are of decisive importance for the adaptation of a practical psychologist in the conditions of an educational institution and, thereby, for all his subsequent work.
How a psychologist can build relationships with the teaching staff and administration, students and their parents, depends on his real status in the educational institution and, accordingly, the conditions for the future work of a specialist.
Job description of a psychologist - sample
The boundaries of his functional responsibilities in practice turn out to be quite flexible and range from the roles of “eternal duty”, “social activist”, “messenger on small errands,” etc. to “an expert on the most important issues of education and training”. It is also important that a specialist cannot always determine the job and functional responsibilities of his professional activity.
Unfortunately, the existing legal norms do not clearly define the duties of a teacher-psychologist in an educational institution. So in the requirements for tariff and qualification characteristics by position (Appendix 2 to the order of the Ministry of Education of Russia and the State Committee for Higher Education of Russia dated August 31, 1995 No. 463/1268), three sections are included: "Job responsibilities", "Must know" and "Requirements for qualifications for categories of payment ".
The section "Job responsibilities" contains the main functions that can be entrusted in whole or in part to an employee holding this position, they are the basis for the development of job descriptions in the field, securing the duties, rights and responsibilities of the employee, approved by the heads of the institution in agreement with the relevant trade union committees. The duties of an educational psychologist include:
- implementation of professional activities aimed at preserving the mental, somatic and social well-being of students (pupils) in the process of education and training in institutions;
- promoting the protection of individual rights in accordance with the Convention on the Protection of the Rights of the Child;
- promoting the harmonization of the social sphere of the institution and the implementation of preventive measures to prevent the occurrence of social maladjustment;
- determination of factors that impede the development of the personality of students (pupils) and taking measures to provide various types of psychological assistance (psychocorrectional, rehabilitation and counseling);
- rendering assistance to students (pupils), parents (persons replacing them), teaching staff in solving specific problems;
- psychological diagnostics of various profiles and purposes;
- drawing up psychological and pedagogical conclusions based on research materials with the aim of orienting the teaching staff, as well as parents (persons replacing them) in the problems of personal and social development of students (pupils);
- maintaining documentation in the prescribed form and using it for its intended purpose;
- participation in the planning and development of developmental and correctional programs of educational activities, taking into account the individual gender and age characteristics of the personality of students (pupils), promoting the development of their readiness for orientation in various situations of life and professional self-determination;
- providing psychological support to creatively gifted students (pupils), promoting their development and search; determining the degree of deviations (mental, physiological, emotional) in the development of students (pupils), as well as various types of violations of social development and conducts their psychological and pedagogical correction;
- the formation of the psychological culture of students (pupils), teachers and parents (persons replacing them), including the culture of sex education;
- advising employees of an educational institution on the development of this institution, the practical application of psychology, focused on increasing the social and psychological competence of students (pupils), teachers, parents (persons replacing them).
The section "Should know" contains the basic requirements for an employee in relation to special knowledge, as well as knowledge of laws, regulations, instructions, other guidelines and regulations, methods and means that the employee must be able to apply when performing job duties. So a teacher-psychologist (8-14 categories) should know: the Constitution of the Russian Federation; laws of the Russian Federation, decisions of the Government of the Russian Federation and federal educational authorities on education issues; Declaration of human rights and freedoms; The Convention on the Rights of the Child; regulatory documents regulating issues of labor protection, health care, career guidance, employment of students (pupils) and their social protection; general psychology, educational psychology and general pedagogy, personality psychology and differential psychology, child and developmental psychology, social psychology, medical psychology, child neuropsychology, pathopsychology, psychosomatics; fundamentals of defectology, psychotherapy, sexology, psychohygiene, vocational guidance, professional studies and labor psychology, psychodiagnostics, psychological counseling and psychoprophylaxis; methods of active learning, social and psychological training of communication; modern methods of individual and group professional counseling, diagnostics and correction of the normal and abnormal development of the child; rules and regulations of labor protection, safety and fire protection.
As we can see, these sections are general, not filled with specific content. The teacher-psychologist needs to rethink and structure the entire array of practical problems, determine the priority areas of his activities, fill them with specific content.
It should be noted that the double subordination of the teacher-psychologist (to the head of the institution for administrative issues and the methodological center for professional issues) introduces a certain amount of confusion in the organization of the professional activity of a specialist. It is precisely the competently composed functional duties that will help the educational psychologist to coordinate their position with the administration's requests in solving professional issues; to develop unified ideas about the function of a psychologist in an educational institution; predict the real results of activities.
The functional responsibilities of a specialist are compiled taking into account the general job responsibilities approved in the tariff and qualification characteristics and areas of activity, as part of the work of the psychological service of the educational institution, taking into account the requests of the administration of the educational institution.
So, for example, a teacher-psychologist can indicate in his functional duties such areas of work as:
- Conducts psychological diagnostics of various profiles and purposes (in order to determine the structure of the personality, the level of development of the child's intelligence, the characteristics of his neuropsychic sphere, professional abilities, emotional relationships in the family).
Determines the degree of deviations (mental, physical, emotional) in the development of students. Determines the factors that prevent personality development.
- Offers a program of psychological and pedagogical assistance, taking into account the data of the diagnostic examination. Draws up a psychological conclusion and consults on the materials of a diagnostic examination with the aim of orienting a student, parents (or persons replacing them), schools (teacher, school psychologist) and specialists in psychological and pedagogical correction.
- Carries out corrective work in individual and group mode based on a psychological conclusion and in accordance with the age and intellectual development capabilities of a particular child.

Functional responsibilities are approved by the head of the educational institution and signed by the educational psychologist.
