2. Technical secondary school

Secondary specialized schools, referred to as technical secondary schools for short, refer to vocational schools established with the approval of relevant government departments and implementing full-time secondary education, including public and private general technical secondary schools, adult technical secondary schools and technical secondary schools affiliated to institutions of higher learning. According to the classification of schools, secondary specialized schools are divided into two categories: ordinary middle schools and adult middle schools. According to the Vocational Education Law and the current "three-set" scheme in the State Council, ordinary middle schools and adult middle schools are managed by the education department.

According to the website of the Ministry of Education, there are 3,398 general secondary specialized schools and 1243 adult secondary specialized schools in China.

3. History of running a school

The educational system originated from the Soviet Union, and its goal is to cultivate professional and skilled talents.

From 1952 to 1954, since the first five-year plan of the national economy, a large number of management and technical personnel of various secondary professions are urgently needed for key projects. According to the needs of industrial economic development, ministries and commissions in the State Council have successively established secondary specialized schools under the direct leadership and management of ministries and commissions in the State Council.

During the period of 1952, Premier Zhou Enlai proposed to establish a new leadership and management system with business departments as the mainstay and division of responsibilities with education departments to jointly run schools well.

4. Times have changed

In the early 1980s, when China was in urgent need of talents, it trained a large number of "pillar talents" with professional skills. At that time, the selection of middle schools was strict, and most of them passed with outstanding intelligence and excellent learning. It was a common cognition at that time that "those who can't get into secondary school will go to high school".

From the 1980s to the early 1990s, these 15 and 16-year-old gifted teenagers were selected into normal universities, health, agriculture, forestry, finance and taxation and other secondary specialized schools with excellent results after graduating from junior high school.

Including school fees, bag distribution, grain and oil supply, and monetary subsidies, many of them were born in poverty. Under the background that the admission rate of secondary schools is as low as 10%, they will be transferred to urban hukou as early as possible, waiting for their "iron rice bowl" and cadre status after graduation.

In the late 1990s, with the reform of the distribution system for middle school graduates and the expansion of university enrollment, middle schools began to be greatly affected. Graduates no longer enjoy the treatment of "package distribution" and "iron rice bowl", which makes their status fall from the original key high school to the ordinary high school and becomes the "choice" for students not to enter high school. For many people who are not familiar with the changes in China's education system, "the place where poor students go" has become the label of middle schools.
