12 when did compulsory education begin? It means that high school education is included in the scope of compulsory education to implement 12 compulsory education. China Special Economic Zone, ethnic minority areas, Zhejiang, Guangdong and Hebei have all tried free high school education and achieved good response. However, it is mainly concentrated in ethnic areas, coastal areas and other developed areas, and has not been widely popularized.
Considering the current situation in China, it is almost impossible to realize 12 years of education in a short time. Education reflects the process of social development, which is a step-by-step process and cannot be achieved overnight. It must conform to the national conditions and the development level of productive forces. Twelve-year education can be piloted in places where conditions permit, but it is not suitable for nationwide implementation. At the same time, the state should increase investment in education and strengthen the construction of educational infrastructure. Especially in underdeveloped areas, these investments and help make compulsory education worthy of the name; Areas with relatively developed education should also actively support and help underdeveloped areas to achieve educational equity.
From 2065438 to March 2007, during the National People's Congress, delegates discussed 12 year compulsory education. Some CPPCC members suggested popularizing 12-year compulsory education throughout the country. There are different opinions from all walks of life. Some scholars believe that the time is not yet ripe, while others believe that China's basic conditions are already in place. Therefore, the proposal of popularizing 12-year compulsory education in the whole country is still being further demonstrated.
