How do you achieve positive results in the face of the competition?
The competition aims to maintain hygiene and health in the school environment to reinforce the values of cleanliness and preservation of the environment to become behavior inherent behavior throughout the life.
But we find that some schools did not give this aspect the deserved attention, and therefore its program fails to instill and strengthen those values, and focused on semblance aspects, concentrating on preparing school building for evaluation is adopted as the main goal, therefore was not successful in achieving these goals for the competition which suggests to effect positive change on human behavior towards hygiene and environment health.
Interest is directed to the activities and events before the evaluation period shortly, where efforts are focused on the preparation of the school for evaluation only, as if the evaluation is a goal in itself and not means to measure the quality of the application compared to other schools. This indicates that school which work on such circumstances - putting pressure on students and teachers- reflects the performance negatively.
Therefore different educational directories and schools should prepare programs and activities to develop working plan and lay the foundations of programs to inculcate the values of competition and the hygiene of the learner and the development of skills and attitudes that help them to apply those values within and outside the school to become protocol of life and standard of contact; including appended follow-up methods and tools, guidance and assess the conduct of students within the school so rest assured that the performance is progressing effectively.

For an effective, accurate and less effort and material costs the following step purposed to consider by schools:

o Develop programs and activities of the competition and the procedures for implementation and follow-up within the school's annual plan - not a separate plan - and commence implementation of the plan at the beginning of the school year.

o All school staff to be involved in the implementation and follow-up - Director - Assistant - teachers - social worker - Coordinator -. . . Etc...

o Orientation and evaluation of pupils behavior in the classroom and outside on an ongoing basis to be followed-up by members of the school board of the competition, students, students' management, and all school staff.

o Honor the provoking students and promote the positive orientation in all ways and means available to the school; and change the antisocial behavior of non-compliant students to best behavior using educational methods and involving the parents board members if needed.

o Provide the necessary bins inside and outside the classroom so it is easier for students to get rid of the trash is ease.

o Evaluate the school activities regularly, what is being done of the programs to achieve the objectives of the competition and its impact on the behavior of students with transparency. Insure appropriate means and measures to assure and promote the positive aspects as well as addressing the negative aspects.

o Share the competition evaluation form clauses and the annotations by teachers, as well as members of the administration , student activity groups, classes boards members and could be placed in each class in order to allow students access .

o Activate every element of the evaluation form, as each element is influential in the evaluation process since it is measuring and assessing the performance of each component separately.

o Each teacher should focus on linking the goals of the competition and link his lessons where appropriate, to name few :-Islamic education - Islamic culture - Arabic language - English - Social Studies - History - Geography and Science - Physics - Chemistry - Biology, are the most richness of information relevant to the competition.

o We note down some of the most important elements and issues that must be linked to the objectives of the competition and the content and focus during the lesson and open discussion and dialogue with students around is not exhaustive, but rather as examples of what should be linked and there are many other topics that can be activated while the teacher give the lessons of the fact that these topics will be given greater emphasis by the commission on monitoring and evaluation of the competition during the evaluation visits, especially during the classrooms visit where students and teachers talk about the nature of each substance during the visit, or dealt with in general, therefore students should be aware of the objectives of the competition and its implications, especially - but not exclusively - with regard to hygiene and health and the environment .


The elements and issues that should be considered are: --
o Good citizenship - loyalty to the homeland and loyalty to His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said, Sultan of Oman.
o Establishing the principles of faith and goodness and charity to others - human relations, and high-establishing the principles of peaceful coexistence among peoples and respect the values and cultures of other peoples.
