1. The primary function of education is to promote individual development, including individual socialization and individualization;

2. The most basic function of education is to influence the change of social talent system and economic development. Modern society emphasizes that the economic function of education mainly includes: providing a good background for the sustained and stable development of the economy; Improve the potential labor ability of the educated; Form ideas, attitudes and behaviors that adapt to modern economic life;

3. The most direct function of education is to influence political development;

The most far-reaching function of education is to influence the development of culture. Education should not only convey culture, but also meet the requirements of the continuation and renewal of culture itself.

Two basic laws of education: one is the dialectical relationship between social development and education, and the other is the dialectical relationship between human development and education.

How to understand the dynamic role of education;

The fundamental purpose of the education system reform is to improve the quality of the people, produce more talents, and produce good talents to serve the socialist modernization. We have improved our understanding of the proposition that education should be given priority in strategic development, while basic education is in a key position. However, in the deep thoughts, many people, including some education administrators, principals, teachers and their parents, often consciously or unconsciously explain the importance of basic education only from the perspective of producing more talents and good talents, and think that the key to improving the quality of higher education is to do a good job in general education. The lack of attention to improving national quality through basic education has certain historical roots in China. There is a shortage of talents in China, so some talents have objective standards and can also be quantified; However, because there is no specific standard for national quality, especially the ideological and moral quality is difficult to quantify, and it is often difficult to measure and compare, so it is often ignored.

Simply pursuing the quantitative growth of personnel training and ignoring the construction of spiritual civilization will inevitably lead to the neglect of quality education. This is the profound root of not paying attention to basic education. Education serves socialist modernization, not only socialist material construction, but also socialist spiritual civilization, socialist democracy and legal system and all-round social development and progress. The latter three are more closely related to basic education and have more direct requirements for quality education. What most people in our country can get is general basic education, which is also an important reason for attaching importance to quality education.
