Official Ladder [Grassroots Civil Servants]

After the 10 "education reform" policies were read out and digested by the participants, Wang Hongtao continued: "The municipal party committee and the municipal government will take the lead in organizing the education reform. Mayor Hu Hao will be responsible for it. , discipline inspection, political and legal, public security, and legal inspection departments follow up the whole process, and resolutely take down any people or things that hinder education reform. Every reform measure must set up a special work class, and a special person is responsible for implementing it. report on the progress of the work."

Mayor Hu Hao stated: "Resolutely implement the governor's instructions. I will organize everyone to formulate an effective implementation plan for education reform as soon as possible, clarify the timetable and roadmap, consolidate the tasks of each department, and ensure that the 10 task."

Leaders in charge of the deputy mayor, organization, discipline inspection, and public security expressed their views in turn.

Deputy Mayor Jiang Xiaolin asked: "Governor, there are many private schools in Chang'an that are well-known by ordinary people. Where will these schools go? In the process of transferring from private to public, where will the teachers go?"

Wang Hongtao said: "The trend of the times is to either transfer from private to public or stop running schools. Of course, private schools that fully comply with the 'six independences' can still run schools, and not all of them will be killed by one stick. In the process of transferring to public, excellent managers and excellent Teachers, we have to introduce a policy to formalize the personnel relationship according to the introduction of special talents, assign them to the ranks, and arrange them in a unified way. Of course, a group of unqualified teachers will be dismissed and may lose their jobs. This is the pain brought about by the reform. It cannot be used as a reason to hinder education reform."

Tian Xiaojiang, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, said: "Governor, I am thinking about whether the abolition of private schools in Chang'an will reduce the quality of teaching in the city, and will students in Chang'an suffer when they take the high school and college entrance examinations? And the students in private schools now Where do you go to school?"

Wang Hongtao has considered this issue for a long time, and said: "Whether education is fair or not is related to the growth and happiness of every child. Without education fairness, there will be no equal starting point and equal opportunity. Topics related to education fairness have always attracted the attention of the whole society. The gaze affects the public's nerves.

As we all know, educational equity is not a new issue. Over the years, we have not been able to obtain an answer that satisfies all parties. The word "fairness" has turned into a difficult problem of benefit distribution.

Educational equity has never been a simple education issue. Public education is an effective way to achieve 'equity', which not only requires financial investment, but also requires cutting off the flesh of some areas with vested interests in education.College admissions are divided into provinces. In areas such as Beijing and Shanghai where first-class universities gather, admissions are often on a first-come, first-served basis.In terms of college entrance examination admission rate, it has long been an open secret that big cities have an advantage.Of course, our Qin Province is not bad either. On the premise that the number of university enrollments will no longer increase, achieving a relatively fair enrollment plan for each province will inevitably involve reductions in indicators in some regions.The local education sector is unwilling to cut this piece of "meat", the parents of candidates are not willing to cut it, and the recruiting colleges are not willing to cooperate in order to obtain the support of local resources.

Injustice in education, in the final analysis, is the injustice of development.However, we cannot wait for the development to catch up before passively solving the problem of educational injustice.Realizing educational fairness should have advanced awareness, that is, the courage to "cut the flesh".Otherwise, we will always fall into such a vicious circle: because education is not done well, development cannot keep up; because development is not good enough, education cannot be done well... To improve education fairness, sometimes we have to show the attitude of throwing away pots and selling iron Come.Moreover, in fact, there is no need to smash the pots, and the iron does not need to be sold. Just by building a few fewer buildings and repairing a few squares, the salaries of many teachers may be improved as a result.

I don't think the problem that Secretary Tian mentioned just now is not a big problem. The senior high school entrance examination is a city-wide competition and has no impact.During the college entrance examination, there is a competition across the province. As far as I know, private schools account for the vast majority in Chang’an, and there are not many other cities. The high-quality education in Chang’an is incomparable to other cities, and we are the ones who take advantage.Moreover, taking Chang'an as a pilot and summing up experience, private schools will be banned in the whole province in the second half of the year.The indicators and quotas of our universities are there, and we will not reduce the enrollment quotas of the whole province just because we cancel private schools.It is the voice of more ordinary families to let everyone compete on a fairer platform and starting line.

As for the whereabouts of students after the abolition of private schools, a principle is followed, enrolling students in the nearest school district where their household registration is located, or enrolling in the nearest school district according to their parents’ work and residence, and enrolling students in autumn is completely divided by school district. "

Deputy Mayor Jiang Xiaolin asked: "Governor, how to strengthen the rectification of off-campus training institutions?"

"Abolish all subject-based education and training! This is the best effort we can make to safeguard educational fairness. However, due to the different expectations and emphasis of parents on their children, education and training will not be easily eliminated. We can only intensify investigation and punishment. Intensity, in-service teachers are prohibited from making up lessons in any form, and teachers who do not change after repeated teachings will be disqualified. It is difficult to have absolute fairness in education. Parents who have the conditions will give their children make-up lessons by themselves, or hire one-to-one tutoring. I also know that a family hired four or five teachers. A nanny is actually here to make up lessons. These phenomena are difficult to put an end to. Violations are not illegal, so we still have to investigate and do our best. No reform can be achieved overnight. We can only cross the river by feeling the stones and constantly sum up experience. It is fundamental to improve the system, improve the quality of teaching, and provide education that satisfies the people. I have communicated with the Ministry of Education that the "education reform" of Chang'an and Qin Province will become the pilot provinces and pilot cities for the "education reform" of the Ministry of Education. The education department must strengthen and educate The Ministry of Education will coordinate with the Ministry of Education and provide us with specific guidance on policy control to prevent our 'education reforms' from violating national education policies.

Comrades, education is the major plan of the country, the greatest livelihood of the people, and the greatest support of the people.We must insist on giving priority to the development of education, and focus on education as we focus on the economy.It is necessary to further care and care for teachers, speed up the improvement of teacher incentive and guarantee mechanisms, and fully mobilize the enthusiasm of teachers.We must take "double reduction" as an important political task and do it well, so that education can truly return to its authenticity and rationality, leaving the best resources to the people and the best space to public buildings, and do our best to do it well An education that satisfies the people! "

After the meeting, all departments of Chang'an City took action immediately, and a vigorous education reform kicked off, and "education reform" became a hot topic in the city.

All private schools are facing this catastrophe, and people are in panic. We all know that when the government’s official documents are issued, there are only two paths for private schools, one is to be incorporated, and the other is to close down. There is no other way.

The power of capital is very strong, and many schools are not willing to fail, and start jumping up and down, looking for a way out of trouble.

Wang Hongtao arranged for the Propaganda Department to keep an eye on public opinion and sent reporters to understand the reactions of all parties and pay attention to the trends of the situation.

Teachers: Teachers are under pressure and more motivated

"We feel that this is an opportunity for the development of public schools. Public schools are more promising, and teachers are under pressure and more motivated."

Mao Yaming, a key teacher who has taught English at Xingzhi Middle School for 13 years, is looking forward to gaining a sense of belonging as soon as possible.She said that the school is a public school with public participation, and she hopes to take this opportunity to convert into a public school. Teachers who have been with the school for many years, including herself, can be properly accommodated by the government. "If it can be converted into a public school teacher, we will be better I have a sense of belonging and I am more motivated.”

A junior high school teacher from a prestigious school had a somewhat complicated mood. He lamented: "If the school becomes public, it is estimated that a group of teachers will be fired, and a group of teachers' personnel relations will be converted into formal ones. Teachers' The situation is becoming more and more difficult, and the number of college students applying for normal colleges may decrease in the future.”

Principal: It is recommended that the public, the public, and the public implement "one school, one policy"

In interviews, the principals and leaders of many public and private schools expressed their support for the new education reform policy.The current situation of unbalanced education in Chang'an is related to some super private schools. If we want to make the high-quality education in Chang'an more fair and balanced, so that more people can enjoy high-quality educational resources, we must break the existing pattern. Hair is a powerful medicine.It can be said that Chang'an's education has really come to a time of reshuffle.

As we all know, "the people are strong and the public is weak" is a major pain point in Chang'an's education.However, private schools enroll students in the city or even the whole province, attracting excellent teachers, creating a vicious circle of "the weaker the public, the stronger the people".

Some district and county education bureaus in Chang'an City have held relevant meetings to listen to the opinions of private schools.Many principals of private schools expressed their willingness to convert them all to public schools, and some principals expressed their unwillingness to convert them to public schools.A middle school principal in Chang'an revealed, "Maybe he is worried about losing the advantage of running a school."He pointed out that the situation of running schools by the public, counselors and private citizens in Chang'an is relatively complicated. There are both universities and government involved in running schools. It is best to implement "one school, one policy".

In 1995, high-tech education started. In the past 26 years, with the rapid development and growth of high-tech zones, education investment has continued to increase, and educational reforms have also continued to iterate.Education is a trump card and a business card of Chang'an High-tech Zone, and Chang'an High-tech Zone has always adhered to the strategy of giving priority to education.The principal of a well-known elementary school in Chang’an High-tech College said frankly, “I was at a loss for a while when I learned that the public, public and private schools were going to be converted into public schools.” She suggested that if the high-tech schools were to be converted into public schools, could they implement “one school, one policy” Retaining more autonomy in running schools is actually giving more responsibilities and obligations to principals.The government can strengthen the supervision of the effective operation of school-run schools, so that to a certain extent, the quality of teaching in schools can develop benignly.

The districts and counties in Chang'an are already doing a thorough investigation on the running situation of private schools.
