"Undergraduate education has achieved a breakthrough of 'zero', the level of vocational education development has been significantly improved, and high school education has continued to strengthen." Set off the largest climax of primary and secondary school construction since the founding of the city, adding 52,000 new degrees, and effectively eliminating the super large class size in the urban area..." At the opening ceremony of the Eighth Party Congress of Luohe City a few days ago, Liu Shangjin, secretary of the Luohe Municipal Party Committee, talked about the "butterfly change" of education development in recent years, and the applause on the scene was thunderous, and the praise on the Internet was like a tidal wave.
On October 20, the reporter of Dahe Daily walked into Xushen Middle School in Zhaoling District, Luohe City, and deeply felt the great changes in the past 5 years. Since the establishment of this nine-year continuous school in the fall of 2016, from more than 600 students at the beginning of its establishment to more than 5,700 students today, what is the "secret" of rapid development?
【From foundation laying to enrollment, it took only six months】
The classrooms are clean and bright, and the campus is fresh and tidy. There are many buildings, calligraphy buildings, and arch buildings, and Internet function rooms such as lecture halls and recording studios are complete, and the sound of reading aloud resounds throughout the campus. "The school is changing so fast!" Yang Junping, secretary of the party branch and principal of Xushen Middle School, told reporters that the school laid the foundation in February 2016, began construction in April, and the first batch of students reported on August 26, including 360 primary school freshmen and 252 junior high school freshmen.
"When new students reported, only one teaching building was built." Yang Junping said that teachers and students came to school "stepping on mud and wading through the slag water", and during recess and physical education classes, teachers had to pull up the cordon.
Why is school building so fast? "Before the establishment of the school, it was difficult for school-age children in the neighborhood to go to school for many years." Yang Junping said that Zhaoling District was established late, educational resources are scarce, and children wanted to go to school before, and the most recent choice is the municipal primary school and the nearby town school, which far exceeds the national "no more than 1.5 kilometers" enrollment principle. Based on this, this nine-year continuous school came into being, and children nearby no longer have to run around.
【Around "one core", create "three business cards"】
"At the beginning of the establishment of the school, President Yang put forward the educational concept of 'based on nine-year education and planning the child's life'." Hu Dongdong, vice principal of Xushen Middle School, told reporters: School education revolves around "one core" - the cultivation of students' independent ability; inheriting the "two spirits" - Xu Shen spirit and Gongbi spirit; creating "three business cards" - writing, reading, football, and in-depth implementation of quality education.
"Xu Shen, the 'character saint' who compiled the world's first dictionary, and Wang Gongbi, the four major 'rural educators' of the Republic of China who are equally famous as Ye Shengtao, are all people from Zhaoling District, and it is our unshirkable duty to inherit the spirit of Xu Shen and Gongbi." Hu Dongdong said that the school will select every semester, filial piety to parents respect the teacher's "Xu Shen teenager", forge ahead and love art "Gongbi teenager".
"In just 5 years, we have won many honors such as the national-level experimental school, the advanced collective of moral education in Henan Province, and the advanced unit of language and writing in Henan Province. The school is striving towards the goal of building a famous school in the Central Plains and creating a luohe characteristic education brand. Hu Dongdong said.
【A hundred flowers blooming is spring, the biggest people's livelihood is education】
A thriving is not spring. In the past three years alone, Luohe City has invested more than 3 billion yuan to build, renovate (expand) 20 schools and have all been put into use, and the conditions for running schools in the city have been greatly improved. Nearly 200 million yuan is allocated every year to ensure that school-age children can go to school "no less". On October 18, Luohe Primary School Education Group was established, and the city's 11 basic education school groups are leapfrogging to "high-quality and balanced" education.
Undergraduate education achieved "zero" breakthroughs, in 2016 Henan University of Technology Luohe Institute of Technology was unveiled; Luohe Medical College comprehensive strength, many times ranked first in the domestic similar institutions rankings; Luohe Vocational and Technical College, in the national similar skills competition for many times won the championship; Luohe Food Vocational College, Luohe Technician College Student employment rate has repeatedly reached a new high...
Education is the biggest livelihood! Recently, Liu Shangjin, secretary of the Luohe Municipal Party Committee, stressed when supervising the construction of 6 primary schools. "Insist on doing children's affairs well, expand the coverage of inclusive preschool education resources, promote the high-quality and balanced development of compulsory education, do a solid job in the 'double reduction' work, continue to improve the quality of high school education, improve the special education guarantee mechanism, actively explore a new model of in-depth integration of vocational education 'industry,study, research and innovation', and fully support Luohe Medical College and Luohe Food Vocational College to upgrade to the foundation..." Liu Shangjin said with hesitation.
