A key middle school in the imperial capital was directly reported when holding a parent-teacher meeting: this batch of parents is also fighting!

Text | Rice grain mother

Some time ago there was such a thing, which was so loud in the group.

When a key middle school in Xicheng held a parent-teacher meeting, he put forward the idea of "layered teaching", the purpose of which is to teach according to aptitude and "not give up every child".

It is said that the parent-teacher meeting has not yet been completed, and some parents have already called 12345 to report

Some people say: stratified teaching is to label children, poor students are abandoned, it will only get worse.

Some people say: the top students can't eat enough, the poor students can't keep up, and layered teaching can match the appropriate rhythm for the children.

Some people say: The parents who report are poor and can't see others well.

In fact, the matter of "layered teaching" is far from so simple.

If I want to say that I can talk to parents openly and honestly about "layered teaching" at the parents' meeting, Xicheng, a key school, is at least frank enough.

Everyone knows that the education of Xicheng in the imperial capital can be said to be the most balanced, otherwise the housing prices of Xicheng have been high.

But even if the education is balanced, after six years of primary school study, the objective stratification is already obvious.

Take English as an example, some babies have reached the level of the college entrance examination, and some babies may not even be able to get a few simple English exchanges, putting children with 100 points and children with 30 or 40 points together, which greatly increases the difficulty of teacher teaching, at the same time, top students waste time, poor students have to keep up, a proper "lose-lose" situation.

Why is this school in Westside honest? Because they put "layered teaching" on the surface, I told you that I am going to do this, in fact, to leave parents room and space for supervision.

Of course, the school definitely wants to fight for the results of the middle school entrance examination, but the original intention is not necessarily to give up the poor students, if only for the results, you can directly pinch the tip and engage in experimental classes, in fact, many schools do this.

As long as there is further education, pinching is inevitable.

When I was in high school, I did not stay in Haidian, but went to a key middle school in the next district, and when I was in junior high school, my best ranking was the fifth in the ordinary class of X University Affiliated High School, and as a result, as soon as I arrived in high school, across the district, I took the first place in the district in several subjects.

The teachers of all subjects are extremely partial to me, some teachers even talk about a knowledge point to look at me, I smile and nod, the teacher continues to talk, I have any questions, they will immediately help me solve.

At the end of my second year of high school, the school selected top students to form an experimental class, and I was selected without suspense. At that time, almost all the teachers of various subjects were "special teachers", and the Chinese teacher was also one of the candidates for the college entrance examination the previous year, which can be said to be the strength of the whole school to recommend us.

After so many years, my identity has also changed, from a student to a parent, and conversely, are middle and poor students not worthy of "special teachers"? A good teacher is the icing on the cake for a good child, but for a middle school or low-achieving child, it can even change their destiny.

But good teachers and good educational resources are always scarce, and I believe that no school will use the whole school to promote children with poor grades.

In fact, the idea of parents is also very simple:

If my baby is a cow baby, a top student, whether it is an experimental class or a stratified teaching AB class, raise my hands and feet to support, on the one hand, I definitely hope that my baby can get more inclination in resources, on the other hand, I also hope that my child can walk with better children;

If my baby is so bad that everyone has given up, it doesn't matter, parents actually don't care how the school divides classes and how it teaches;

But if the baby is a middle student, it is very delicate, middle students are the largest group, parents, teachers take a lot of effort, their own efforts, maybe they can be promoted to the ranks of the top students, if surrounded by poor students, the learning atmosphere is not good, there is also a high possibility of being close to the ink.

For schools, it is to look at the promotion rate and look at the number of high segments, but for parents, that is the future of their children, and they can't make a difference!

I used to joke that Haidian parents like online classes at home because "school is too delayed."

I remember that when the class was delayed just after the start of class, many schools forced or implicitly poked to force children to attend extended classes at school, and those who picked up in advance had to issue various certificates, and they were also reported and complained by parents through 12345.

To be honest, Haidianwa is quite busy after school, and she can't eat enough in school, and the end of school means that the day's study officially begins.

There are many second-generation Haidian exams, and parents have tacitly acknowledged that "if you want to teach according to your aptitude, you have to work hard after class", so they often work harder than schools and teachers.

But now not only Haidian, but also all over the country, parents who care about their children will do their best to supplement school education.

In the end, now that the school district has been watered down, everyone is fighting for nothing more than a learning atmosphere.

The stratified teaching of schools is well-intentioned, but in the actual implementation process, various problems will indeed arise.

For example, Mi grain mother Shanghai's girlfriend, her baby is in the junior high school, is stratified, but English and mathematics are bound together, her baby is good at mathematics, poor English, and finally average, there is no way to enter the first echelon, of course, there are children who are poor in mathematics and good in English, but these children are placed in a parallel class, there are poor mathematics, there are good mathematics, there are poor English, there are good English, and finally there is no way to synchronize the pace of learning.

In fact, the more detailed the level, the closer to "teaching according to aptitude" for children, but if the division is too detailed, only the shift system can be implemented, so what is the frequency of each promotion and downgrade? The cycle is long, afraid of delaying the child's progress, the cycle is short, and the child has to adapt to a new teacher every once in a while, which is also a challenge.

Also, the parents of the top students may save a lot of things, after stratification, the school has the planning and rhythm of the school, and the teachers equipped with must not say. But what about middle school students, as well as children with poor grades?

Although we have not been teachers, we have also tutored our own children. Can teaching an enlightened child be the same as teaching an unenlightened baby? Even if the school is meant to "not give up on any child", in fact, will the teacher slowly give up in disappointment after disappointment?

Parents who do not approve of "layered teaching" are not necessarily opposed to "stratification" itself, they are afraid that after stratification, their children are ignored and abandoned.

This goes back to whether we are seeking educational equity or educational equity.

All children, eating a pot of rice, no school district concept, no cow school slag school, no fast class and slow class, indeed closer to educational equality, but this leaves parents with a huge problem -

The baby is not full, you have to do your best to expand outside of class, the baby has to work hard, you have to make up for him outside the classroom. Yunyun Puwa, may be eating just right at school, but the running front is still accelerating, and the one running behind is also struggling to catch up, what do you let them do?

It is a beautiful vision to teach learning to teachers and return subject education to school, no parent wants to be a child, study, class, homework, after-school class from opening to closing his eyes all day... However, if the school really proposed "layered teaching, teaching according to aptitude", would you like to believe it? Can we believe it?
