The fundamental factor that determines the nature of education is the political and economic system.

The political and economic system embodies the nature of the country and determines the nature of any subsystem. It determines the nature of education by formulating educational policy, educational purpose and educational policy, and stipulating who education serves and who benefits.

Productivity only expresses people's ability to adapt and transform nature, but can't decide who to serve and whose interests to meet, so it can't decide the nature of education. Don't consider the angle that "the economic base determines the superstructure". "Economic base" is not equal to "productivity".

The nature of social economy and political system restricts the nature of education; The social, economic and political system restricts the purpose and purpose of education; Social economy and political system restrict educational leadership; Social, economic and political systems restrict the right to education; Social economy and political system restrict the content of education.

The fundamental factor affecting the development of education is the development of productive forces.

The development of productive forces provides material connection for the development of education, puts forward higher requirements for the cultivation of talents and fundamentally determines the development of education.

Science and technology are productive forces and primary productive forces, but they do not mean that "productive forces" are equal to "science and technology", and productive forces contain more contents.
