China's primary education system and current situation;
1, six-year system
Primary education is generally a six-year system, which is divided into three stages: the first and second grades are called lower grades, the third and fourth grades are called middle grades, and the fifth and sixth grades are called higher grades. At the beginning of 1970, based on the concept of "education should be revolutionized and the length of schooling should be shortened", the six-year primary school system was changed to five-year primary school system. 1979, the five-year system changed back to the six-year system.
2. Five-year system
265438+At the beginning of the 20th century, some areas carried out experiments to implement five-year primary education. For example, in Ningbo, Shandong and other places, in 2006, the "May 4th Academic System" was piloted in some schools, with five years in primary school and four years in junior high school. Jining and other places still use the May 4th academic system.

The key to primary education:
Primary education is not about not wanting grades, but about being alert to grades, staying away from the worship of grades, returning to the truth, making children's study life more vivid, making primary school teachers' teaching and educating people more calm, and making parents' mentality more calm. In addition to teaching the necessary basic knowledge, schools should also cultivate children's interest in learning, help them form good habits and guide and inspire them to explore the world.
Compared with teaching achievement and academic achievement, the former should be mentioned in a higher and more prominent position. The clear orientation and firm implementation of primary education in many developed countries also clearly illustrate the importance of this point. Otherwise, teachers with grades, rewards and punishments will inevitably pass on the pressure of grades to teaching;
Children lose not only childlike interest, but also their enthusiasm for learning and interest in exploration; It is not only not conducive to the physical and mental growth of primary school students, but also to the promotion of national creativity in the future. In a vast country, when the innovation level does not match the human resources, have we ever reflected, which is also related to the nervousness of primary school teachers and students?
No matter from children's physical and mental characteristics and growth laws, or from the educational requirements of the country, primary school students should have reasons, time and opportunities to experience the fun of lively growth, and should not get tired of learning too early, let alone be afraid of academic performance.
Primary education urgently needs to get rid of the unnecessary heavy burden, return to the relaxed atmosphere of teaching and learning, and return to the calmness and calmness it deserves. To achieve this, we need to re-understand the orientation of primary education, gradually dilute the teaching achievements of primary schools, make overall arrangements for primary school courses and activities, and functional departments and schools stick to the bottom line and explicitly refuse external interference.
