Legal analysis: education must serve socialist modernization, which is the general direction of China's education work. Education must be combined with productive labor. All-round development of morality, intelligence and physique is an important standard of education and training objectives. Cultivating builders and successors of socialist cause is the overall training goal of socialist education in China.

Legal basis: The Outline of People's Republic of China (PRC)'s Medium and Long-term Planning fully implements the Party's educational policy, insists that education should serve the socialist modernization and the people, and combine it with productive labor and social practice to cultivate socialist builders and successors with all-round development in morality, intelligence, physique and beauty. This is China's current education policy.
