What does the British dual-track teaching mean?
In fact, the dual-track system stipulates different rights to education according to different educational objects (the criteria for division are mainly race and origin). Therefore, there are two different trends in education: one is for the children of the upper class, nobles and senior monks, who can continue to receive higher education after graduation from junior high school. The other track is aimed at the children of ordinary people, who can only get employment or receive vocational education in primary and secondary schools after graduation from primary school. Moreover, in the same stage of education, these two tracks are completely independent, not only with different curriculum and teachers, but also with different training objectives. Later, with the real emergence of the national education right, the state obtained the power to manage education from the church, especially with the further development of capitalist industry and commerce and the growing voice of people demanding the right to education, which made the two tracks in the two-track academic system gradually cross and converge. Therefore, in the current dual-track school system in European countries such as Britain, France and Germany, it is no longer the original school system. However, in some stages of education and the setting of educational content, we can still see the traces of the dual-track system.
