Guangming Daily asked that the government work report pointed out that the large class size in cities and towns should be eliminated, and the Ministry of Education also made it clear that the large class size of more than 66 people should be basically eliminated this year, and it is required to eliminate the large class size in 2020. What are the specific measures to achieve this goal?
Minister of Education Chen Baosheng said that the problem of large class size is not simply a question of how many desks, how many benches and how many people are arranged in a classroom. Large class size will bring harm in three aspects. First, it will affect the physical and mental health of students. You can think about it, a large number of people will definitely be in a bad mood. There is another one that affects the quality of teaching. People sitting in the back row can't see the blackboard clearly and can't hear the teacher clearly. The third influence is that it may bring security problems, so the large class size must be resolutely solved, overcome and eliminated.
