This fall semester is the first semester for primary and secondary schools to fully implement the "double reduction" policy. The Ministry of Education requires that after-school services be promoted to support the realization of the "double reduction" work goal, and in the new semester, after-school services should be fully covered, and the guarantee time should be "5 + 2"; the deployment should reduce the excessive homework burden of students, reduce the pressure of students' examinations, and other work, and must not adjust classes, arrange seats, and "label" students according to the test results, and must not set up key classes in any name. It is also proposed that teachers can be arranged to implement "flexible commuting" and give corresponding subsidies to teachers participating in after-school services.
On September 1, Jimu News reporters visited many primary and secondary schools in Wuhan and found that after-school care is ushering in great changes.
Junior high school starts with late self-study, and the trusteeship is extended to 20:00
On September 1, almost all primary and secondary schools in Wuhan postponed the end of school to 18:00.
On September 1st, optics valley four primary school students launched a variety of after-school care activities
Mr. Wang, whose child is in the third grade of Huangpi Road Primary School in Jiang'an District, said that he is very busy at work, the child is in the first and second grades is around 4:30 after school, the pick-up is mainly responsible for the elderly at home, the biggest difficulty is in the tutoring, so he is very much in favor of the school after-school care delay, "can complete the homework in the school."
However, in addition to the homework tutoring that parents are most concerned about, primary and secondary schools in Wuhan also hope to use the extra time to cultivate students' interests and hobbies and promote their all-round development. The "1+X" model has therefore become the choice of most schools, that is, after completing the "1" of "subject assignment tutoring and independent learning", a variety of club activities or physical exercises are carried out, that is, "X".
The Jimu News reporter learned that many schools have conducted parent surveys in advance, but some people choose not to participate. A parent of a primary school student in Wuchang said that there was someone in the family who managed the pick-up and drop-off, and she did not want to let the child take care of it after class, but wanted him to leave school early and go to the class of the training institution.
There are also schools that are extended to a later date. In the Affiliated Middle School of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, seventh and eighth grade students will also stay in the school until 20:00, and after two classes in the afternoon, self-study counseling and quality courses will be carried out, and the school will arrange teachers to be on duty, and students can basically complete their homework in the school. Lu Zhouchao, the principal of the school, said that the school has 45 new teachers this year, on the basis of improving the quality of teaching, vigorously promote the integration of home-school work and rest time, ensure a 45-minute lunch break, try to make students from the first to third year of high school sleep between 21:30 and 11:30 pm, and implement a flexible homework program, when the homework can not be done, sleep priority. Through a series of measures, we have scientifically managed time, changing from "very tired but not tight" to "very tight but not tired". "Of course, we also have the advantage that the school itself has a very good canteen that can provide dinner." He said.
Mr. Wang, a parent of a seventh-grade student at Huake High School, said that parents were much more relaxed and praised the "double subtraction".
There are also some schools, on the basis of the previously set school after 18:00, and temporarily invite members of the Parents' Committee to the school for consultation and solicit parents' opinions. "We actually want our children to be able to finish their homework at school and then go home, and some parents even joke that it is enough to hold it up until late." We can deliver meals, and we can help with school management. Mainly because I am too afraid of 'homework' to cause parent-child conflicts. A member of the parents' committee of a junior high school in Hongshan District said that the current plan is only 40 minutes later than the original school, which is of little significance, but the delay is too long, the teacher will be very hard, and the school's difficulties must be understood.
Hosting courses have become richer, and teachers are facing challenges
At about 16:00 on September 1, jimu news reporters saw in the rose garden primary school in Hanyang District that the students in the classroom were quietly doing their homework, and the teacher was answering questions for the students; at 16:30, the self-homework period ended, and the students entered the second period of after-school care: six borderless school-based courses. According to the class, the students carried out various cultural and sports activities, and the sound of reading, music and laughter was heard in the classroom and on the playground. Zhang Yanping, principal of Rose Garden Primary School, introduced that the curriculum of the second stage of the school is divided into Lirun Virtue Course, Le Tao Art Course, Archery Education Agility Course, Imperial And Intellectual Fun Course, Shuyun Classic Course, Digital Creation Puzzle Course, etc., all of which are undertaken by subject teachers.
"This after-school hosting delay, our biggest advantage is in the teacher resources. We developed these classes in 2019. Zhang Yanping said that Chinese teachers can take students to the "Classics of Books" course to carry out interesting reading outside the language class; mathematics teachers can take students to the "Number Creation Puzzle" course to carry out mathematical fun educational activities such as Sudoku; English teachers can take students to the "International Etiquette" and "English Speaking" classes of the "Lirun Virtue" course; physical education teachers can take students to the "Shooting Education Agility" course or their own good at badminton, cheerleading, dragon dance, basketball, jumping rope, etc.; music teachers can take students to the music class of the "Le Tao Yi Mei" course. Such as music appreciation, singing, making small musical instruments, etc.; art teachers can take students to the "Music Pottery Beauty" course art classes such as painting, origami, clay making, etc.
Club classes, which used to be held once a week and two classes, will now be distributed over five days from Monday to Friday, which on the one hand makes many principals excited and feels that they have more autonomy and can realize more educational ideas; on the other hand, it does challenge the school's curriculum construction and implementation capacity.
Many schools consider the introduction of professional institutions, social resources and parental professional forces. Wuhan Optics Valley No. 21 Primary School released a WeChat message on August 20 to recruit skipping rope (administrative) classes, fencing (administrative) classes, etc. among new students, which was warmly welcomed, and half of about 320 new students signed up. The school intends to cooperate with the professional team of the Olympic Sports Center and the Wuhan Sports Institute to train students intensively, and plans to form a continuous training with the corresponding junior high school and Wuhan Optics Valley First Junior High School. Wuhan Optics Valley No. 4 Primary School on the basis of the original wind music (administration) class, and then opened a string music (administrative) class, on the 1st, the students have already carried out the first practice.
Luo Hongwen, principal of Qipan Street Primary School in Wuchang District, said that the school considered improving the parent classroom formation system, and the previous parent classrooms rarely faced the whole grade or even the whole school, and the next attempt can be made in the future. Zuo Jun'e, principal of Longquan Primary School in Wuhan East Lake New Technology Development Zone, said that the school invited teachers who are about to retire to join the "Springspring Silver Age Teachers Double Reduction After-School Counseling Center" to assist in after-school hosting, and also intends to use local resources to carry out after-school care services for project-based course learning outdoors, such as "Into Longquan Mountain" and "Longquan Tofu Production and Sale".
There is congestion at the end of school, and after-school services are still in the run-in period
In an interview with Jimu News, it was found that due to the concentration of school hours at 18:00, on September 1, some schools had congestion after school.
According to the relevant person in charge of a primary school in the East Lake High-tech Zone, the school has 40 classes, the school gate is relatively narrow, before the school was released at the wrong time, and each grade was staggered for a few minutes to leave the school, and the students left school smoothly. But on September 1st, all grades ended at 18:00 and parents were very concentrated, resulting in a very slow end to school until 18:45, when the last class did not leave school. "It's the evening rush hour again, and the children who may go the last to get home are more than 19:00." Immediately after school, the whole school administrators met to discuss how to solve the problem. He said.
Parents' diverse needs for care time need to be given more attention. A number of primary schools have previously conducted a questionnaire survey on this and found that there are candidates for the three options of not hosting, hosting one class (17:10 school ends) and hosting two classes (18:00 school end). In junior high school, some parents hope that dinner and homework are solved in school, and some parents are reluctant, thinking that eating two meals at school, children can not supplement nutrition.
There are also some schools, some of the previous club courses are provided by off-campus professional institutions, and as the class time is concentrated, the staff of the institutions that can provide services has become tight and the cost has increased. "Right now, there are real concerns about affecting the quality of courses hosted after school." An elementary school principal said.
Some schools have calculated that after the implementation of the current after-school service, the workload of teachers has increased by at least 20%, such as the first and second grades of primary schools, with fewer subjects and fewer teachers, but the custodial workload is the same as other grades, and the individual teachers will be more tired. The school hopes to have policy support and increase the number of relevant personnel.
Under the "double reduction" policy, how to arrange students' time has also become the focus of attention. Fang Wei, a Chinese teacher in the 603 class of Optics Valley Four Primary School, arranged an essay for 11-year-old students on the 1st, "Under the "double subtraction", what do we add", and the students' answers may be used as a reference - the children mentioned that it is necessary to increase the quality of the classroom, so that everyone can firmly grasp all the knowledge points in the class, and also increase the amount of reading, exercise, labor, and sleep time.
