On August 30, 2023, at the press conference of the Ministry of Education, Tian Zuyin, director of the Department of Basic Education of the Ministry of Education, said when introducing the Opinions on Implementing the Action Plan for Expanding the Scale and Improving the Quality of Basic Education in the New Period jointly issued by the Ministry of Education and other three departments.
2. Tian Zuyin said that the action of expanding quality and improving quality is committed to deepening the supply-side reform of basic education, further expanding the "cake" of high-quality educational resources, accelerating the construction of a high-quality basic education system with excellent children's teaching and learning, fundamentally solving the contradiction between the overall shortage of high-quality educational resources and the people's expectation of "going to school" and enhancing the people's sense of happiness and security in education.
3. In view of the lack of diversified development of ordinary high schools, the low level of some counties, and the anxiety of the masses in the diversion of vocational and general education, the Action of Expanding Excellence and Improving Quality puts forward that the first action to implement the connotation construction of ordinary high schools is to increase investment, "build a new batch", build and expand a number of high-quality ordinary high schools from a high starting point, and increase the supply of degrees.
4. The second is to innovate the "helping a group" school-running mechanism, and expand the total amount of high-quality ordinary high school education resources through group-based school-running, "group-type" assistance, and the hosting of subordinate universities and provincial universities to help counties; Third, diversified development "upgrade a batch", support a group of well-established regions and schools to take the lead in piloting characteristic schools, actively develop comprehensive high schools, and promote the integration of vocational and general education.
5. Fourth, orderly increase the enrollment plan "expand a batch", deeply tap the resource potential of existing high-quality ordinary high school buildings, optimize the enrollment plan according to the actual situation, and orderly expand the enrollment scale of high-quality ordinary high schools.
6. For a long time, high school has been divided into five or five classes, and half of the children will leave their jobs after graduating from junior high school, which directly leads to serious involution in primary and junior high schools. I heard that some children around me spend tens of thousands of dollars on remedial classes every year, and now there is finally good news. High schools should be expanded and graduated in different classes.
