General line of educational policy: the general direction of educational work put forward by China in various historical periods of the China Revolution. After many revisions, integrations and twists and turns, it is concluded that education should face modernization, the world and the future.
Since the 1920s, China has led the people of China to carry out the new-democratic revolution, socialist revolution and socialist construction, and founded the people's education cause to cultivate revolutionary talents and improve people's cultural and scientific level. In order to guide the development of people's education, the party has formulated different educational policies in different historical periods according to different situations and the party's work priorities. These policies reflected different backgrounds of the times and played a guiding role in education at that time.
In several different periods of the new-democratic revolution, the education policy formulated by the Party stipulated that education should serve the class struggle, revolutionary war and the expansion, consolidation and construction of revolutionary base areas.
After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), during the period of socialist revolution and construction, China has made clear provisions on education policy. Its general direction is: education should serve socialist modernization, and all kinds of educational undertakings at all levels should cultivate workers with all-round development in morality, intelligence, physique, society and culture, that is, cultivate new socialist people with ideals, morality, culture and discipline. However, during this period, due to historical reasons, the formulation and establishment of educational policies also had an evolutionary process.
