The number of subsidies is more than 2 million.
On August 3 1 day, the Ministry of Education held a press conference. Liu Jiantong, inspector of the Teacher Affairs Department of the Ministry of Education, said that the number of rural teachers covered by the living allowance has reached about 2 million, and about two-thirds of rural teachers have received the living allowance. As for the distribution standard, generally speaking, from 200 yuan to 400 yuan, 68% people maintain this distribution standard. About 27% of the population receives subsidies above 400 yuan. If compromise is reached, these two million people will subsidize 300 yuan on average every month, and the amount of state subsidies to rural teachers will reach more than 7.2 billion yuan a year. It can be said that the country attaches unprecedented importance to rural teachers. Why is the country so kind to rural teachers? There are three reasons.
Ensure that rural teachers can get down.
Finance at all levels gives so much money to support rural teachers every year. The first thing is to ensure that teachers can go to the countryside. As we all know, the teaching environment and treatment of rural teachers are far from those of urban teachers. Every year, many people are admitted to rural teachers, but they are unwilling to teach in the countryside. There is a saying called. Treat people? Giving more living allowances to rural teachers will also help more people to devote themselves to rural education.
Ensure that rural teachers can stay.
The difference between rural teachers and urban teachers lies not only in the working environment, but also in the workload and work intensity. The author used to be a rural teacher and six teachers taught in a rural primary school. Everyone works in the class, and the headmaster is no exception. Every week, they have 25 classes. And the same teacher, the city teacher may have 13, 14 classes a week, and the principal or dean may not have attended classes yet. So many rural teachers have twice as many class hours as urban teachers. Giving rural teachers a certain living allowance is actually recognition of their labor.
Ensure that rural teachers teach well.
The state gives more subsidies to rural teachers in order to let them have a deeper understanding of their professional honor and mission. To tell the truth, do you choose to attend classes in urban primary and secondary schools or go to rural primary schools? Perhaps most primary and secondary school teachers prefer to choose the former. However, rural education is also a part of national education development. If no one pays special attention to rural education, rural people may never have a chance to catch up with urban people. Therefore, strengthening the investment in rural teachers also hopes that they will put more energy into education.
On the premise that the Ministry of Education subsidizes rural teachers, would you like to be a people's teacher in a township? You are welcome to share your opinions.
