Nandu News Guangdong has entered the time of the two sessions, and "double subtraction" has become the focus of attention of many parties. In the past six months since the introduction of the "double reduction" policy, what accumulation and results have been achieved in the 9 pilot cities? Nandu reporters consulted the official website information of the education departments of the pilot cities, and after preliminary collation, summarized 85 documents, notices and announcements related to "double reduction", and combed and found that these policy information are closely centered on the two main lines of external standard governance and school burden reduction and quality improvement.
Many provincial people's congress deputies and CPPCC members plan to put forward relevant suggestions and proposals at the two sessions of Guangdong Province this year to provide intellectual support for building a new education ecology.
Pilot city "double reduction" policy
The fees for off-campus training in disciplines have been significantly reduced
According to the statistics of Nandu reporters, 85 documents, notices and announcements related to "double reduction" have carried out comprehensive management of off-campus training institutions, schools, teachers, parents, students and other subjects in many aspects, multi-departmental linkage, "unblocking and blocking", and systematic. The intensity and depth of the level are rare before.
In order to play a series of combination punches of "double reduction" and "unblocking and attaching equal importance", multi-departmental linkage is indispensable. Nandu reporters observed that more than 10 policies were jointly issued and implemented by multiple departments. For example, in view of the registration of compulsory education discipline training institutions as non-profit institutions, five departments such as the Beijing Municipal Education Commission, four departments such as the Guangzhou Municipal Education Bureau, and three departments, including the Chengdu Municipal Education Bureau, jointly issued relevant policy documents.
A closer look at the content of these documents shows that the current "double reduction" policy in pilot cities is relatively focused on the level of off-campus governance. For example, among the 85 documents, notices and announcements, there are 56 policy documents involving the content of "off-campus standardized governance" and 39 policy documents at the level of "reducing burden and improving quality in schools", of which 18 documents of the Guangzhou Municipal Education Bureau involve more than 10 "off-campus standardized governance". These documents cover issues such as discipline identification, fund supervision, VAT reform, and violation notification of off-campus training institutions, with many levels and wide coverage.
As Zhang Wenwen, a member of the Guangdong Civil Construction Association and an associate professor at South China Agricultural University, said, "The task of the previous stage was to 'reduce pressure'", but "there are still many things that the government can do to guide the transformation and development of institutions".
In addition, the same is the focus on off-campus normative governance, and the specific measures of each pilot city have their own characteristics. Nandu reporters paid attention to the fact that compared with the previous tuition standards, the fees for off-campus discipline training under the government's guidance price have been greatly reduced.
"The main purpose of the government's introduction of guidance prices is to guide off-campus training institutions to standardize their operations and reduce the phenomenon of sky-high asking prices and sky-high prices." Xiong Bingqi, president of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, believes that the government's guided pricing standards should be determined by combining the operating costs of institutions, the market's demand for training, and the local consumption level. However, judging from the government guidance pricing standards of various cities currently announced, they are obviously lower than the market price.
Reduce the burden and improve the quality of the school
It is recommended to strengthen custody supervision to ensure hosting security
"Policy implementation is a gradual process of dynamic equilibrium. At different points in time, policies have different focus points and different implementation goals. Zhang Wenwen pointed out that after the completion of the next "pressure reduction" task, the focus of the "double reduction" work should be "sparse". "This work has put forward very high requirements for the relevant administrative departments, and we must walk in the front, want to be in the front, and effectively serve education."
In fact, "neglect" lies not only outside the school, but also inside the school. Nandu reporter observed that the comprehensive measures based on "sparse" (positive guidance) are gradually rolling out, while consolidating the internal strength of education and teaching in the school, further improving the quality and level of after-school services in the school, and becoming an indispensable part of the "double reduction" work.
Nandu reporter noted that in the preliminary statistics of 39 pilot cities "on-campus burden reduction and quality improvement" policy documents, its main content focused on after-school services, homework management, teacher training and so on. Taking after-school services as an example, pilot cities such as Guangzhou, Chengdu and Changzhi have introduced policies to provide students with lunch, lunch break, after-school care and other services.
However, compared with the "external standardized governance", "reducing the burden and improving the quality of the school" needs to be further deepened and strengthened. In the view of Yu Hui, director of the Research Department of the Research Center for Basic Education Governance and Innovation of South China Normal University, after a semester of exploration, schools around the world have formed valuable practical experience in after-school services, but some levels of problems still urgently need to form scientific and reasonable standards. "First, the form of after-school services, in addition to self-study, counseling, and activities, what forms can be taken; second, the duration and intensity of various types of activities should be clarified in combination with the characteristics of activities of different natures; third, what standards should be met by teachers of after-school services, and what kind of institutional teachers and social people can join; and fourth, the charging standards for various types of services."
At this year's provincial two sessions, the members of the civil construction sector mentioned in the proposal that there are several concerns in the school trusteeship work, such as the safety of trusteeship, the diversity of curriculum settings, the difficulty of arranging children in lower grades, the difficulty of evaluating the effect of trusteeship, and whether the supervision is in place. In this regard, it is recommended to do a good job in security training to ensure the safety of students; standardize the content of hosting and ensure the quality of hosting; publicize the cost of hosting, standardize the hosting fee; strengthen custody supervision to ensure custody security.
Build a new ecosystem of education
The perspectives and levels of recommendations and proposals are broad
Zhang Wenwen is full of expectations for the two sessions of Guangdong Province this year: "I hope that during the two sessions, I can see the proposals for building a new ecology of education, and can respond to the new background and new historical period, what our education should do." ”
Sunset has a similar view. He told reporters that he especially expected the deputies and committee members to put forward detailed suggestions and proposals in terms of "double reduction" to reduce the burden on students and the collateral effects of "double reduction." "For example, our preliminary research shows that the current after-school tutoring market is shifting from off-campus training institutions to private tutoring, and there are signs of underground development. What kind of countermeasures should be taken by relevant departments in this regard, I hope that the deputies and members will have relevant suggestions and proposals. ”
In fact, nandu reporters noticed that the "double reduction" suggestions and proposals of the two sessions this year are not in the minority, focusing on the two main lines of external standardized governance and on-campus burden reduction and quality improvement, involving a wide range of angles and levels.
For example, in view of the situation of reducing the burden and improving the quality of the school, the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the China Democratic National Construction Association submitted the "Proposal on Strengthening the Management of School Trusteeship under the "Double Reduction", the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the Democratic League submitted the "Proposal on Promoting the Reduction and Efficiency of School Education in the Context of "Double Reduction", and the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the Democratic Advancement Submitted the "Proposal on Promoting the "Double Increase" to Comprehensively Strengthen and Improve the Sound, Body and Beauty Education in Primary and Secondary Schools in Our Province" with "Double Reduction". Among them, the proposal of the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the China Association for Promoting Democracy specifically mentions that the situation of music, physical and aesthetic education in primary and secondary schools in Guangdong is not optimistic, and there are problems such as the general lack of teachers, the lack of equipment and facilities, the lack of equipment and facilities, the imperfect evaluation system, and the tendency of art education to fall into exam-oriented education.
At the same time, Nandu reporter learned that Chi Yunping, member of the Guangzhou Municipal Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, executive director and executive vice president of Guangzhou Software Institute, said in his proposal that the current market response is relatively lagging behind, the new industry development pattern has not yet been established, and the market supply and demand are misplaced. How to guide relevant practitioners to steadily achieve reemployment in an orderly manner is a problem that needs to be solved urgently in front of the government.
