The double reduction policy is a burden reduction policy proposed by the education department for the compulsory education stage. Specifically, it refers to comprehensively reducing the workload of children and reducing the burden of off-campus training. One is to reduce the workload of homework, the other is to reduce the burden of off-campus training.

Guangzhou: Make sure there is no homework in the first and second grades of primary school. The average completion time of written homework in grades three to six of primary school is no more than 60 minutes, and the average completion time of written homework in junior high school is no more than 90 minutes. Encourage the implementation of "no homework day" every week.
