Just a few days ago, the "Report of the State Council on Effectively Reducing the Burden of Excessive Work and Off-campus Training and Promoting the Comprehensive and Healthy Development of Students in Compulsory Education" submitted to the Standing Committee of the 13th National People's Congress for deliberation believes that the reform of double reductions has been supported and recognized by the whole society, but the "Double Reduction" work is long-term, complex and arduous, and has many problems and shortcomings.
"Double Reduction" policy, as a major education reform to implement the central decision-making and deployment, shines in the world with its overwhelming momentum and thunderous force, and has brought about profound revolution and profound changes in China's basic education.
For more than a year, after unremitting efforts in all aspects, it is gratifying that the "fifth fire" of the off-campus training market has dropped significantly, and the phenomenon of wild growth has been effectively curbed. The reduction of burdens and quality improvement in schools has been widely welcomed, not only for billions of young people. Children have won the time of happy growth and space for comprehensive development. More importantly, they have corrected the distorted educational logic, let learning return to the main position of the school, let education return to its proper origin and track, and reshape the healthy educational ecology and education pattern, allowing us to see and witness that education under the "double reduction" is becoming increasingly beautiful.
While the good atmosphere of the whole society supporting and recognizing the "double reduction" reform has been gradually formed, we must see The problem of invisible mutation in subject training still needs to be solved. In the supervision of non-discipline training, laws and regulations are still incomplete, and there is still a gap in improving quality and efficiency in schools.
And although through the practice of "double reduction" for more than a year, all walks of life have deepened their understanding of the deep-seated reasons for the excessive burden on students and parents' education anxiety. From the perspective of education, it is mainly the coordinated development of vocational and general education and the competitive selection of the middle school entrance examination; from the perspective of education, it is mainly the pressure of employment competition and income distribution, Improving the social security system and unbalanced and insufficient development in my country. These internal and external problems are transmitted layer by layer, causing students to have great academic pressure and triggering parents' educational anxiety.
A journey of a hundred miles a day is half ninety, and a thousand-foot pole must be climbed again. This means promoting the major policy of "double reduction" and continuing to consolidate the effectiveness of "double reduction", the next step will be to comprehensively deepen the comprehensive reform of the system.
First, postpone the "general vocational division" ”. high school entrance examination determines that some students go to ordinary high schools, some students go to vocational school , and the policy requires that the general and vocational ratio reach 5:5. Although the country has always attached great importance to the development of secondary vocational schools, due to the influence of traditional ideas and concepts, parents and students still choose ordinary high schools. Especially when the admission rate of the college entrance examination is high, parents and students have a stronger desire to go to ordinary high schools.
For this reason, the high school entrance examination has become the most typical selection. Sex exams. In order not to be eliminated, there is a fight for the score, repeated training for the score, and participation in various tutoring for the score at all costs. Despite the "double reduction", parents' anxiety has not decreased, and it may even increase. This has resulted in the invisible mutation of subject training, from "ground" to "underground", from "popular" to "high-end", from "universal" to "customized", which not only increases the burden on the family, but also brings a series of potential social problems and systemic risks.
If the high school enrollment method is reformed and the general vocational diversion is postponed to the high school stage, it will effectively alleviate the competitive pressure on the one hand and help to simplify the five educations of , cultivate morality and develop comprehensively, and demonstrate personality. On the other hand, it can relieve parents' excessive anxiety and make "double reduction" a spontaneous, conscious and voluntary for parents. At the same time, it will give each student more room for growth, and people's intellectual development will be early and late, and "poor students" who may be diverted in junior high school may have the possibility of a counterattack when they go to high school.More importantly, when students reach high school, their minds are more mature and their development paths are clearer. They have a clearer understanding and rational judgment of their career planning. At this time, they will naturally divert, and they will be willing and will come naturally.
Secondly, cancel the high school grade system. The Ministry of Education issued new regulations last year that major high schools do not allow key classes and ordinary classes to be set up. Education should be treated equally and students should not be treated differently. In order to deepen the "double reduction", on this basis, the school level divisions such as provincial demonstration high schools, key high schools, and super high schools should be clearly cancelled. It is precisely because high schools have different levels that parents ask their children to go to demonstration high schools and focus on high-centered centers. In order to "take the lead", in endless anxiety, they can only use the increase in pressure and losses on their children as the magic weapon and the path to achieve.
For today's face of balanced and fair development of education, this hierarchy is no longer suitable for the requirements of the development of the times and has become an obstacle to the deepening of "double reduction". While abolishing the high school level system, the corresponding resource allocation method for dividing schools into different levels must be adjusted.
Again, improve the scientific evaluation mechanism. First, explore and deepen the reform of the college entrance examination questions and the reform of enrollment and admissions, strengthen the comprehensive evaluation of students' thinking quality, innovation awareness and practical ability, and break the pure examination-oriented attributes of education that blindly compete in scores, time, body, and questions through the evaluation system. The second is to establish a more scientific and rich academic achievement evaluation mechanism, simplify the learning effect into scores, which is very likely to cause anxiety among parents and encourage the brutal growth of a large number of subject tutoring institutions. The quantitative evaluation is qualitative evaluation , the single evaluation is multi-dimensional evaluation, the simple evaluation is value-added evaluation, the result evaluation is process evaluation, and the static evaluation is dynamic evaluation, which is used to transform the evaluation and the utilitarian and short-sighted education. The third is to improve and improve the teacher evaluation method. The teacher evaluation content should highlight the targetedness of "double reduction". From the past, blindly evaluating grades and admission rate to focusing on the evaluation of homework design, arrangement, correction and feedback ability, evaluation of classroom teaching art and teaching benefits, evaluation of after-school service content and methods, evaluation of attitudes and levels of collaborative education between home and school, and evaluation of teachers' professional ethics and daily conduct.
At the same time, we will increase the intensity of normalized supervision and inspection. will include "double reduction" in the "No. 1 Project" of Education Supervision , tightening and strengthening local management responsibilities, ensuring that supervision is implemented in depth; including invisible variation training issues in the scope of comprehensive social governance, increasing comprehensive governance efforts, and severely punishing violations; further standardizing the management of non-discipline training, and adopting a series of measures such as price monitoring, fund supervision, and on-site supervision to urge them to adhere to the public welfare attributes and avoid excessive profit-seeking.
In addition to this, we should spare no effort to reduce the burden on teachers. While reducing the burden on students and families, teachers have undoubtedly become the biggest concessioners, bottom-line providers and responsibilities. The burden on teachers remains unabated, and it is difficult to achieve a "double reduction" that will be fully implemented. Therefore, we should make every effort to urge local governments and departments to further implement the burden reduction list, minimize the toss and interference of non-teaching tasks on teachers and education and teaching, and at the same time implement and implement the flexible working system of teachers, so as to minimize the contradictions and conflicts between teachers working around the clock and the life pressure that must be faced and the reality.
Only by unswervingly promoting comprehensive reform and not letting go of comprehensive treatment can we solve many problems and difficulties, effectively consolidate the results of "double reduction", and cultivate new people of the times who are capable of serving as the important task of national rejuvenation.
