(a) the reform and development of ethnic education should adhere to the principle of seeking truth from facts and proceeding from reality, and be tailored to different ethnic groups and regions in terms of development planning, reform steps, objectives and requirements, school forms, teaching language, curriculum and educational system arrangement; We should persist in the innovation of ideas, systems and mechanisms, constantly expand the opening and exchanges between ethnic groups and regions, and boldly absorb and draw lessons from the outstanding achievements of civilizations of different ethnic groups, regions and human society, so that China's ethnic education can not only maintain its own characteristics, but also have distinctive characteristics of the times.

(2) Adhere to the principle of separating religion from ethnic education, conscientiously implement the Constitution of People's Republic of China (PRC), the Law on Regional Ethnic Autonomy in People's Republic of China (PRC) and other legal provisions, and no organization or individual may use religion to interfere with ethnic education or preach religion in schools in any form; Encourage religious patriots to publicize the party's educational policy and strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education among religious believers, mobilize school-age children to enter school, and mobilize the enthusiasm of religious believers to support national education. At the same time, it is necessary to further strengthen the atheism and materialism education for teachers and students of all ethnic groups, carry forward the scientific spirit, spread scientific ideas, advocate scientific methods, popularize scientific knowledge, establish a scientific world outlook, and constantly enhance the ability of teachers and students of all ethnic groups to consciously resist the influence of feudal superstitions and cults.

(3) Give priority to self-reliance in ethnic minority areas, and combine with national support and counterpart support from developed areas and relevant institutions of higher learning to jointly promote the development of education in ethnic minority areas. Ethnic minority areas should attach great importance to education, carry forward the spirit of self-reliance and hard struggle, and vigorously develop education. Developed coastal areas and relevant institutions of higher learning should further enhance their overall awareness, pay close attention to counterpart support education as required, and make greater contributions to the overall revitalization of ethnic areas and the large-scale development of the western region.

(4) Make overall plans and give prominence to key points. In order to realize the coordinated development of education in ethnic minority areas and education in the eastern and central regions, while strengthening ethnic minority education in ethnic minority areas in the future, the focus of central financial support for education should be tilted to key areas for ethnic minority work, remote agricultural and pastoral areas, alpine mountainous areas, border areas and underdeveloped areas with small population. Vigorously support the development of modern distance education in ethnic minorities and western regions, improve the sharing ability of high-quality educational resources in these regions, and realize the leap-forward development of ethnic education.
