recently, a cctv reporter found that some secondary vocational schools are actually using "empty student registration" as a business.
this chaos is truly shocking.
in these schools, some "students" just paid to register for school and get a diploma without actually attending school. such fraud is essentially selling student status and diplomas as commodities. this is not only a violation of the principle of educational fairness, but also a crime.
it is outrageous enough that seemingly legitimate schools are engaging in such activities. what is even more outrageous is that these schools do not seem to feel ashamed when doing such activities.
as long as someone wants to "register an empty student", these schools will accept everyone and actively "cooperate". the "operation" is almost open. not only is the fee standard for "registering an empty student" public, but even how to pretend to fool the inspection after "registering an empty student" is explained in advance. in order to promote the business of "registering an empty student", some schools will even publicly promise to help parents defraud state subsidies.
there are two main reasons why these schools are so bold:
first, they are blinded by greed. in order to increase "extra income" and obtain government funding and related subsidies, these schools take risks, cater to or even stimulate the improper demands of some people, and engage in the gray business of "empty student registration" alone or in collusion with some intermediary agencies.
second, there is poor supervision. in these schools, "empty student status" is an open secret. if the supervisory authorities pay attention, they will not be unaware of it. the means by which these schools deal with supervision are also very simple. whether it is requiring "empty student status" to clock in at school at a certain time, or using false information to help "empty student status" apply for leave of absence or apply for subsidies, it is not difficult to detect. under such circumstances, these schools can actually engage in "empty student status" as if nothing has happened, and the lack of supervision is obvious.
if the regulatory authorities can keep a closer eye on it and manage it more strictly, most of the "operations" of "empty student registration" will not be completed. even if individual schools occasionally "succeed", it is difficult to make "empty student registration" a long-term gray business.
in my country's current education system, secondary vocational schools have not been very prominent. however, this does not mean that secondary vocational education is not important and does not need to be carefully supervised. the regulatory authorities cannot be absent-minded and perfunctory about the problems existing in secondary vocational schools. when secondary vocational schools use "empty student registration" as a business, the regulatory authorities should "see" it at the first time and severely punish it in accordance with the law. at the same time, follow the clues to find out the buyers and colluders in this business and make them pay a heavy price.
in short, for relevant departments, strengthening supervision of secondary vocational schools has become a top priority.
