Does vocational education help to get rid of poverty?
A few days ago, a representative of the National People's Congress said that secondary vocational education has a high input-output ratio in tackling poverty, and it should make great achievements and play a special role in tackling poverty.

According to the report, the representative said that the "National Project for Poverty Alleviation through Secondary Vocational Education" will be implemented. Through the "three-pronged approach" of granting degrees by vocational schools, providing jobs by enterprises and ensuring comprehensive funds, the "two generations" (workers who failed to continue their studies after graduating from junior and senior high schools) and young adults who have not completed their studies but have employment potential will be sent to secondary vocational schools to study.

In the future, we should implement the plan to improve the ability of secondary vocational education in concentrated contiguous poverty-stricken areas. The incremental part of popularizing high school education in poor areas will focus on secondary vocational education. Secondary vocational colleges with distinctive school-running characteristics, direct service to local industrial development and good prospects for employment and entrepreneurship integration will be included in the key support targets.

At the same time, encourage developed areas to tap vocational education resources, help secondary vocational colleges in poverty-stricken areas to improve the level of running schools, recruit students from poor families in poverty-stricken areas, or adopt a joint training model. Establish a joint leadership organization for secondary vocational education cooperation between the east and the west, plan the direction of education and training, introduce cooperative enterprises, and let students master the vocational skills urgently needed for local industrial development or jobs in the inflow areas to achieve stable employment.
