What is the reason behind the Ministry of Education's refusal to "change compulsory education into a twelve-year system"?
According to the reply of the Ministry of Education, the conditions for extending the academic system and bringing preschool and ordinary senior high schools into compulsory education are not yet met.

From the "reply" document of the Ministry of Education, we can clearly know that it is impossible for the Ministry of Education to refuse to change "compulsory education into a twelve-year system" in terms of the current social situation.

Thinking: Why can't compulsory education be changed to twelve-year system at present? I. Unbalanced development of education The imbalance and deficiency of education development is manifested in the imbalance and deficiency of the relationship between the development of education itself and the development of other aspects of society, which is incompatible with the requirement of "promoting China's industry to the middle and high end of the global value chain".

China's economic transformation needs the transformation of education, and needs to cultivate versatile and speculative talents with rich interests, complete personality and sound mind. At present, the education with too single standard and teaching mode can not meet the needs of industrial upgrading and social transformation in time and effectively.

In addition, the imbalance of education development is more concentrated in the imbalance between different schools, different regions and different students in the education system, especially between urban and rural areas.

Second, the financial investment in education has increased year by year.

The increase in financial investment in education fully reflects the determination of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council to give priority to the development of education and ensure investment in education. The education expenditure in the general public budget of the national finance is "increasing first but not decreasing" year by year. In 20 19, the national general public budget expenditure on education reached 3.5 trillion yuan, 34 times that of 20 15, with an average annual growth rate of 7.6%. The national per capita general public budget education expenditure has been increasing year by year. In 20 19, according to the average number of students in school, the general public budget expenditure on education at all levels reached 86 15 yuan, ordinary primary school1949 yuan, ordinary junior high school 173 19 yuan and secondary vocational school/respectively. Third, increase employment pressure As far as the current employment pressure is concerned, employment has become a difficult problem for college graduates. If 12-year education is realized, the number of people attending universities will increase. Once it increases, the employment pressure will be even greater in a few years, so we have to pay attention to it.

Four, nine-year compulsory education and "fish escaping from the net" Judging from the current nine-year compulsory education, there are still many "fish escaping from the net", which is more obvious in rural areas. In rural areas, because teenagers' psychological development is immature, their parents go out to work, and because of various problems, they "wander" in society without graduating from junior high school.

It is wise to summarize the practice of the Ministry of Education. Coupled with the problems this year, it is impossible to realize "12 year compulsory education". Only by improving the social and economic level and expecting the country to become stronger and stronger can we solve the problem of unbalanced education development and realize the education power.
