The significance of nine-year compulsory education;

Nine-year compulsory education focuses on cultivating talents. Students in grades 7, 8 and 9 are at a psychological turning point, and it is against the educational policy to run "special classes, key classes, advanced classes and fast and slow classes" in schools.

The Ministry of Education has announced many times that public schools are forbidden to hold key schools, key classes and fast and slow classes in the compulsory education stage, and it is not allowed to recruit students who choose schools. The Ministry of Education's "Guiding Outline of Mental Health Education in Primary and Secondary Schools" clearly puts forward that nine basic principles must be adhered to in developing psychological education. Nine-year compulsory education is for all students, and everyone should be treated fairly.
