The illiteracy rate in China has dropped to 2.67%. Is this the function of compulsory education?
I have too much to do with compulsory education. I think nine-year compulsory education is the most powerful policy in this society. I am born after 90. When I was in primary school, there were children who didn't study, only read a primary school, and then went home to farm.

At that time, people generally believed that food was the most important thing for people, so they thought that agriculture was the only way to avoid hunger. So at that time, too many children in rural areas went home to farm after finishing primary school, and I was almost the same, so I was different from my parents now. Many people advised me to listen to my parents. Under my rational thinking, I generally don't listen, because they haven't read any books and their understanding of this era is far less than mine, although I am still a child in their eyes.

First, compulsory education is welfare.

Personally, I think compulsory education is the common welfare of individuals and society, and it is also a win-win situation. After compulsory education, children generally have their own cognition and thinking, and they will have their own judgments about the future. This is what those children who go home to farm do not have. Of course, due to the existence of compulsory education, fewer people go home to farm after finishing primary school. After all, reading is free. Who can push their children into the fire pit?

Reckless parents should also have some foresight. After all, at that time, the manned spacecraft went to heaven, saw the development of society and realized the importance of knowledge, so children were allowed to enter the campus one after another and accept the baptism of knowledge.

Second, knowledge changes fate.

Now there are basically no people outside compulsory education, which is also an important part of social construction. We all regard our work as a simple and single coolie, whether it's people at the bottom, scientists or various R&D personnel. Even the workers who move bricks on the construction site have to learn some construction knowledge. If you haven't experienced nine-year compulsory education, you may not even understand English letters, so you can't do particularly simple work.

Even if you go home to farm and the net weight of the fertilizer bag is 50KG, you must know what it means, but for a child who has never read a book, you have no idea what it means, so nine-year compulsory education is very important, and it is also nine-year compulsory education that has reduced the illiteracy rate in China to 2.67%.
