In response to media reports that some schools in the north did not solve the heating problem and students were frostbitten, at the press conference of the Ministry of Education held on the 6th, Xu Mei, a spokesperson of the Ministry of Education, said that these two days, she noticed relevant reports that some schools in the north did not solve the heating problem in winter and were studying hard in the cold window. Seeing such a report, we are very distressed and anxious about these children. This also reveals from one side that some local governments still have problems at the work level. The Ministry of Education attaches great importance to this issue, and the leaders of the Ministry have instructed that effective measures should be taken to urge local governments to quickly solve the heating problem in primary and secondary schools.

Xu Mei said that yesterday (65438+February 5), the Office of the Education Steering Committee of the State Council issued a supervision notice to the relevant provinces, demanding that we attach great importance to this issue, quickly find out the situation, solve the problem, and ensure the normal education and teaching work of teachers and students can be carried out. I saw a report yesterday that some places immediately made reforms and promised to solve the heating problem of these children quickly today. I think these places should show their attitude and make a difference on this issue.

Xu Mei emphasized that children's affairs are no small matter. I hope that local grass-roots governments, education departments and schools will take this as a warning, truly consider the children's warmth and coldness, truly take students as the center, effectively protect the interests of students, and let children grow up healthily under relatively good conditions.
