The Spiritual Essence of China's Educational Purpose

1. Socialism is the fundamental nature of education in China.

This basic spirit clarifies the socialist direction of education in China, guides education to train talents in all aspects for the development of socialist cause, that is, to train talents at all levels for socialist economic construction and all-round social development.

2. Cultivate all kinds of talents, namely laborers, for the construction and development of socialist economy.

The purpose of education in ancient slave society and feudal society is to train rulers and talents who serve them. The purpose of capitalist education is not only to train bourgeois successors, but also to "train obedient slaves and capable workers for capitalists". The fundamental symbol and general requirement of the purpose of socialist education is to train everyone into a laborer.

Socialist workers should be new workers, workers who combine mental work with manual work, and "all-round producers". Cultivating this new type of workers is the ideal requirement of socialist education.
