"Learning in government" has two meanings:? First, both academics and schools are controlled or controlled by the government, that is, "academic officials guard"; ? Second, all teachers are held by state officials, that is, "the integration of officials and teachers." ?
During the Western Zhou Dynasty, the government monopolized school education and all academic culture. At that time, only nobles had the opportunity to receive education, and ordinary people could not enter the school gate.
The most fundamental reason for the formation of "learning in the official" lies in the productivity development level and social system structure of the Western Zhou Dynasty. Studying in the government shows that education is the privilege of slave owners and nobles, while civilians and slaves have no right to enjoy education, which shows the class nature of education.
Extended data:
In the Western Zhou Dynasty, the central royal family established Chinese studies, and the children of princes could enter Chinese studies to receive formal education on the basis of family education. Therefore, the actual "learning in the government" is "learning in the royal family."
Although there are records in history that governors set up Pangu, it is rare for governors to set up Pangu Sect in the Western Zhou Dynasty. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the emperor lost his official position and studied in Siyi. As a result, the princes became powerful politically, which also required their children to enjoy real privileges in education.
On the one hand, family education was strengthened, on the other hand, teachers of letters were trained, and schools for princes and nobles were established, thus developing the form of combining family education with school education in the Western Zhou Dynasty to a new historical stage, and further promoting the transition of school education for slave owners and upper-class nobles to school education in feudal society.
