the state council information office held a series of press conferences on "promoting high-quality development" on september 26. wang jiayi, vice minister of the ministry of education, introduced that over the past three years, the education system has conscientiously implemented the central government's deployment on "double reduction", especially emphasized the role of schools as the main battlefield, and solidly promoted the "double reduction" work, which can be summarized as "double reduction and double increase".
the first “reduction” is that the number of subject-based training institutions in the compulsory education stage has dropped significantly, and the disorderly development trend of large-scale subject-based training has been basically curbed. the second “reduction” is the reduction of students’ homework burden and off-campus training burden.
the first "improvement" is that more than 200,000 compulsory education schools across the country have generally provided after-school services, and the proportion of students who voluntarily participate in after-school services has increased from about 50% before the "double reduction" to more than 90% at present. the second "improvement" is that the teaching quality of students in the compulsory education stage has been significantly improved.
wang jiayi said that the next step will be to continue to consolidate the "double reduction" results, create a good educational ecology, and finally achieve "double increase" within the school. specifically, we will focus on the following four aspects:
first, expand resources and consolidate the "basic foundation" of classroom teaching quality in primary and secondary schools. deeply implement the action plan for expanding and improving the quality of basic education, optimize the allocation of regional educational resources, strengthen the construction of a high-quality and professional teaching team, firmly promote the digitalization strategy of education, and effectively expand the coverage of high-quality educational resources.
the second is to improve quality and activate the "internal motivation" of school education and teaching. by optimizing teaching methods, strengthening teaching management, promoting technology empowerment and other measures, we will comprehensively improve the level of classroom teaching to ensure that teachers in the school can "teach well" and students can "learn well". we will continue to improve the level of after-school services in schools, especially to meet the diverse learning needs of students.
the third is to emphasize practice and build a comprehensive education system. we will fully implement the requirements of practice-based education, thoroughly implement the plan to improve the quality of scientific education, strengthen disciplinary practice, interdisciplinary practice and comprehensive social practice, and cultivate students' exploratory and innovative thinking qualities.
fourth, strengthen supervision and create a good ecology of synchronous governance inside and outside the school. improve the long-term and normal mechanism for off-campus training governance, strictly control subject-based training, strengthen the governance of hidden and variant subject-based training, standardize non-subject-based training, and especially seriously investigate and punish illegal and irregular training behaviors. strengthen the supervision of pre-paid fees of training institutions, and resolutely curb excessive fees and excessive profit-seeking behaviors.
