What is the development direction of basic education in China?
The development direction of basic education in China-quality education. Starting from the concept of quality education, China believes that a fundamental point that distinguishes quality education from exam-oriented education lies in respecting and developing each student's "personality". The essence of quality education is the education of respecting personality, and its ultimate goal is the development and perfection of personality, which is people-oriented. "Respecting individuality" means acknowledging that no matter what state an individual is in, it is possible to develop the subject's individuality. Whenever possible, we should ensure the possibility of its free development and devote ourselves to cultivating its uniqueness and creativity. However, in school education, students' personality is often despised and suppressed. The most important task of quality education is to break the deep-rooted disadvantages of school education in China-uniformity and closeness, establish the principle of "respecting individuality" and implement "flexibility" at the system level, curriculum level and classroom teaching level according to students' characteristics.
