Parents all over the world have just finished Mother's Day, and they have to be busy for their children's junior high school!
In the field of education in China, there have always been some unspoken rules and non-standard practices. Recently, a phenomenon that has attracted widespread attention in the society is the "small promotion of junior high school enrollment". This approach seems to be a means taken by the school to attract excellent students, but there is a hidden chain of interests behind it.

It refers to the fact that some key middle schools secretly screen out a group of "top students" before the formal enrollment of junior high schools, and ensure that these students can smoothly enter the school in the future by locking in advance and guiding them in advance. Some popular secondary schools see this as a "secret weapon" to attract high-quality students.

How were these "top students" discovered and identified? There are three main ways:
First, schools organize various forms of "selection examinations" on their own or in conjunction with social institutions. Students in the fourth and fifth grades of primary school are required to attend written examinations or interviews for each subject at a designated location. Some exams are more straightforward, and the assessment content is mainly in addition to the number of languages; There are also those who are secretive and package the exam as a talent show or quality assessment.

Second, the school will screen children based on the results of various cup competitions they have participated in. Although the education authorities have publicly cracked down on illegal cup competitions many times, various activities such as "Olympiad Summer Camp" and "English Winter Camp" have emerged one after another, which have become an important basis for many middle schools to find students.

Thirdly, the school will collect and review the "luxury resume" submitted by parents. These resumes not only have the child's results in various subjects, but more importantly, they are accompanied by certificates of various trainings, examinations and competitions that the child has participated in. Whether or not you can get the "favor" of secondary school depends largely on the weight of these certificates.

In order to recruit the so-called "top students", middle schools have secretly formed a set of "pinching" interest chains. Training institutions hold all kinds of certificate classes, examination classes, and competition classes, and access the school through improper means; The intermediary is responsible for transmitting the relevant information to the parents; In order to increase the "competitiveness" of their children, parents do not hesitate to invest a lot of money and energy to prepare a "luxury resume......

In this chain of interests, there are training institutions that benefit from fishing, parents who do their best, and schools that choose so-called "high-quality students". But in the end, it is the ordinary families and ordinary children who are unable to participate in all this. They are cut apart in an unfair environment, with an imbalance in the distribution of educational resources and a denied the opportunity to choose schools.

The practice of "pinching the tip in secret" has exacerbated the involution, utilitarianism, and unfairness in the field of education. It disrupted the normal order of teaching, and the children had to be stuck in the test-taking cowshed; It fuels the anxiety of some parents, who do not hesitate to hire tutors and attend various training courses at high salaries, increasing the heavy learning burden on their children; It undermines the original intention of the school to teach and educate people, so that the school has to pursue the promotion rate one-sidedly and ignore the importance of the all-round development of students.

In the face of the grim situation, the relevant departments are severely cracking down on the behavior of "secretly pinching Zeng" and promoting the reform of the enrollment system in the compulsory education stage. Only by establishing a sunny and fair enrollment mechanism and achieving a balanced allocation of educational resources can every child have the opportunity to compete on the same starting line, so as to truly create a fair environment for children's growth. When the chain of interests is completely cut off and education returns to its original intention, that day will be the beginning for children to lift their burdens and regain happy learning.
