Legal objectivity:
"Some schools think that charging school selection fees is a way to prevent corruption and reflect educational equity, which is wrong. The emergence of school selection fees not only violates the compulsory education law, but also the most direct manifestation of undermining the principle of educational equity. " Guo Zeshen, a deputy to the National People's Congress, believes that the practice of charging school selection fees for public schools should be abolished as soon as possible. He pointed out that the fundamental way to cancel the unreasonable school selection fee is to adhere to educational equity, continue to increase investment in education, promote the balanced development of education, and follow the following two principles. 1. Make sure it's nearby. The newly promulgated Compulsory Education Law stipulates: "Local people's governments at all levels shall ensure that school-age children and adolescents are enrolled in schools near their domicile." It shows that the nearest school is the distribution principle of compulsory education, and the current educational resources can not give parents the right to choose schools at will. Strictly following this principle will ensure that every school-age child can have a place in public schools. 2. High score choice. Choose schools according to the test results, and implement the principle of selecting schools with high scores. Everyone chooses schools according to their abilities and scores. If you want to enter a key school, you must reach a certain score and be fair and just. The new system of funding guarantee for compulsory education was implemented according to law, and the new Compulsory Education Law established the principle of free for the first time. The newly revised Compulsory Education Law clearly stipulates: "There is no tuition and miscellaneous fees for the implementation of compulsory education. The state establishes a guarantee mechanism for compulsory education funds to ensure the implementation of the compulsory education system. " Our government decided to exempt 49 million rural compulsory education students from tuition and miscellaneous fees in western provinces from the spring of 2006. By 2007, all provinces in the central and eastern regions will be exempted from tuition and miscellaneous fees for students in rural compulsory education. This means that 80% of students in compulsory education in China will no longer pay tuition and miscellaneous fees, which means that while the agricultural tax is completely exempted in rural areas, the "compulsory education" in a complete sense will soon begin in the vast rural areas of China and present a brand-new blueprint. The new Compulsory Education Law makes it clear for the first time that the state will fully bring compulsory education into the scope of financial security. The new Compulsory Education Law stipulates that the state will fully include compulsory education in the scope of financial security. The State Council and local people's governments at all levels will include compulsory education funds in their fiscal budgets, and allocate compulsory education funds in full and on time according to the staff establishment standards, salary standards, school construction standards and public funds per student, so as to ensure the normal operation of schools and the safety of school buildings, and ensure the payment of staff salaries in accordance with regulations. In recent years, the new Compulsory Education Law has raised the relevant policies such as canceling rural education surcharge and rural education fund-raising and increasing rural compulsory education transfer payment to legal norms. Therefore, the serious problem of insufficient investment that puzzles the development of compulsory education in China will hopefully be fundamentally solved. The new Compulsory Education Law has established a new funding guarantee system. The new Compulsory Education Law stipulates that the funds for compulsory education shall be shared by the State Council and local people's governments at all levels according to their responsibilities, and the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government shall be responsible for the overall implementation. The funds needed for compulsory education in rural areas shall be divided by the people's governments at all levels according to the provisions of the State Council and shared in proportion. Local people's governments at all levels list the funds for compulsory education separately in their budgets, and so on. This is a major adjustment to the past management system of compulsory education, such as "local responsibility, hierarchical management" and "county-oriented", which clarifies the responsibilities of governments at all levels and ensures the fundamental change from "people's education run by the people" to "compulsory education run by the government". In addition, the funds for compulsory education are used for compulsory education in strict accordance with the budget provisions, which legally eliminates the loopholes such as "transfer payment is transferred" and "going up and down" in the past, so that the funds for compulsory education are effectively guaranteed.
