"in october 2016, i went to bangou primary school in fuping, hebei for the first time and was a little shocked. the children sat on big benches, the blackboard was made of cement, and there was no multimedia teaching equipment," said liu jianwen, former principal of taoranting primary school in xicheng district, beijing. "now, the school has changed a lot. the classrooms have floor heating, and the multimedia teaching equipment is all touch screen."
in 2016, the beijing education system's working committee on the care of the next generation implemented the national strategy for the coordinated development of the beijing-tianjin-hebei region and provided targeted assistance to fuping county, hebei province by organizing a "old principals going to the countryside" program.
over the past eight years, three groups of 21 "old principals" have come to 18 rural schools in fuping to teach, attending more than 4,000 classes, teaching more than 620 hours, conducting more than 280 teaching and research activities, organizing more than 360 extracurricular activities, lectures, and demonstration classes, benefiting more than 20,000 students. the sunshine of high-quality education brought by the beijing "silver age" teaching team has shone deep into the taihang mountains.
bangou primary school, which had a pass rate of only about 60% in 2016, now ranks among the top two in the district, and some classes have even reached 100%. behind the change is liu jianwen's persistence in driving 100,000 kilometers between beijing and fuzhou for eight years.
every time he comes to fuping, liu jianwen first listens to math, chinese, and english classes, and then gives comments to let the teachers know what they are doing well and what needs to be improved. due to the shortage of teachers in music, physical education, art, and labor, liu jianwen guest-starred as a teacher in these subjects. not only did he teach himself art, he also paid more than 40,000 yuan out of his own pocket to buy teaching supplies for his students. from 2016 to 2024, liu jianwen invited beijing's special-grade teachers to fuping many times, and organized a total of 144 expert lectures and teaching and research activities. the demonstration class started with only teachers from the school, and now attracts more than 100 teachers from surrounding schools.
"this group of 'old principals' carefully selected by the beijing education system's working committee on the care of the next generation have demonstrated their true abilities in fuping," said yang erjun, deputy director of the fuping county education and sports bureau.
bai ruixiang led the teachers in fuping to carry out special research on "effective classrooms". through teaching the same lesson in different ways, writing cases, and recording reflections, the atmosphere of local subject teaching and research gradually became stronger; sun xixia led the school to carry out teaching quality analysis, accurately found the problems, and steadily improved the teaching quality; tian fuchun's assistant teacher chengxiang middle school won awards in the "four all-around" competition for teachers in fuping county, and 3 teachers won first prizes...
the "old principals" not only pay attention to the development of school teaching quality, but also pay attention to the comprehensive and healthy growth of students.
under the guidance of fu baohuan and other "old principals" and teachers, children from the mountains of fuping took to the stage of the opening and closing ceremonies of the beijing winter olympics and sang the olympic anthem in greek; li yaming collected red stories from fuping and organized the compilation of the school-based textbook "the red land in the depths of taihang mountains"; ji shiming brought online courses worth 420,000 yuan from beijing no. 4 middle school to teachers and students; wang qi helped the wanglinkou central primary school choir join the chunlei dream choir, striving to help rural children grow into young musicians who can read music and sing in parts...
the "old principals" are full of affection for rural education. relying on beijing's educational resources, they have promoted the overall improvement of fuping's education. with the help of vr equipment donated by beijing, they understand the vastness of the universe; learn the performance of fancy basketball; dance to the rhythmic beats of ancient poetry rhythmic gymnastics... the children in fuping feel the splendor of the wider world.
"the 'old principals' brought advanced educational concepts, high-quality courses and rich resources to rural schools, activating the endogenous driving force of fuping education," said zhou banghong, director of the fuping county education and sports bureau.
zhang xue, director of the beijing education system's working committee on the care of the next generation, said that in the next step, they will encourage and support "old principals" to combine local realities and needs, work hard as teaching assistants with heart and soul, and make the business card of "old principals of beijing" shine even brighter.
