Some critics say that the "madness" of the early education market stems from the madness of parents, which sounds very exciting. After all, experts have repeatedly stressed that the most important thing for young children is to "play". Why don't some parents listen? However, seeing news reports that many teachers also send their children to early education institutions, the understanding and management of early education must be improved.
According to the Blue Book of Early Education in China in 20 18, the market size of early education in China may exceed 200 billion yuan in 20 17, and the consumption level of early education by families is on the rise with the growth of children's age, with the highest expenditure of 500- 1000 yuan/month, accounting for more than 40%. It should be recognized that parents' demand for early education market is real, and it is necessary for the government to properly intervene in this consumer demand to cool it down, and relevant departments should do a good job in guiding and standardizing it. Of course, simply promoting cooling will not solve the real problem.
It is not difficult to find that parents' demands for early education are not "exam-oriented": some parents hope to make their children healthier and happier in the future by participating in parent-child training classes; Some parents expect their children to have an immediate effect in thinking, habits and humanistic quality after attending the training class ... It can be said that these rational demands for parenting consumption can be met by the early education market and must be met. As long as the early education market follows the national regulations and the requirements of scientific parenting, there is no need to kill it with a stick.
The real problem is that some early education institutions have no training or education qualifications at all, some institutions have patchwork courses and lack scientific arrangements, and some training institutions involve false propaganda ... Parents are stuck in the mode of "only choosing expensive" and "only choosing expensive". Stimulated by this, the price of early education institutions is getting more and more outrageous. From this perspective, relevant departments should do something to provide the public with information that can be used for reference.
In the news, we can see that some parents will make great efforts to investigate in order to choose early education institutions. It is not impossible for relevant departments to clean up illegal early education institutions. As mentioned above, the problems of early education institutions mostly involve unqualified and false propaganda, but China has strict regulations in this regard, and relevant departments can completely clean up according to law. In terms of false propaganda, the Law on the Promotion of the People stipulates that the relevant departments can impose fines on those who publish false enrollment brochures or advertisements, and even order them to stop running schools or revoke their school licenses if the circumstances are serious. In this context, the supervision of the early education market has become a question whether the relevant departments should take care of it.
As we all know, the special governance of training institutions has been launched nationwide this year, and the intensity and scope of this work are unprecedented. However, the problem that must be faced squarely is that this governance pays more attention to the training institutions corresponding to primary and secondary schools, and the stock of early education institutions is not enough. This should attract the attention of relevant departments. After all, the growing early education market cannot wait until something goes wrong.
