The new semester has begun, and school-age children have entered the school to start a new study and life. However, some school-age children living in Zhongda Square, Rongbang Zhongshanyuan and other communities in Heze City, Shandong Province cannot enter the corresponding school district Heze No. 1 Experimental Primary School to study. Many families’ applications for admission were rejected on the grounds that the area of the house is less than 60 square meters. "Ensure school-age children and adolescents to enroll in the nearest school where their household registration is located" is an express provision of the compulsory education law , and the law does not regard the area of the real estate as an additional condition for enrollment. Linking entrance qualifications to the size of the house is obviously an "extra requirement" outside the law and lacks legitimacy. Schools in Shenzhen, Guangzhou’s Yuexiu District and other places have also issued regulations linking enrollment qualifications to the size of the house, and then immediately abolished the relevant policies under public criticism, indicating that such policies are unfounded in law. Allowing schools to "rank" school-age children based on family property status, "area discrimination" against small-sized property owners, and allowing the children of wealthy families who can afford large-sized houses to attend key schools will seriously undermine educational equity and should be corrected.
