Promoting fairness is a national basic education policy.

Rational allocation of public education resources, focusing on rural areas, remote areas, poverty-stricken areas and ethnic minority areas, and speeding up the narrowing of the education gap. Promote the balanced development of compulsory education, coordinate the layout of schools, and promote the standardization of compulsory education schools. The implementation of the county (city) in urban and rural primary and secondary school teachers' salaries with the standard, as well as the exchange system between teachers and principals. Cancel key schools and classes of compulsory education.

"School-choosing fever", "class occupation" and "strippers" ... these dramas, which are staged in big cities every year, have a tendency to spread to small and medium-sized cities in recent years. Recently, some media reported that Nantong University students used the winter vacation to investigate in Suining County, Xuzhou City, Jiangsu Province, and found that the phenomenon of "school choice" was prevalent in the local area. Some schools even used "school choice fee" as a way to make money, which made students and parents miserable. At this year's National People's Congress, some NPC deputies and CPPCC members pointedly pointed out that "school selection is forbidden every year, and parents choose every year", because the uneven allocation of educational resources forces parents to "go to the battlefield in advance if they want their children to stay at the starting line"

Popularizing quality education is the basis of improving national quality. Vigorously promoting educational equity is the starting point to realize social equity. The outline of the Twelfth Five-Year Plan points out: "Fully implement the Party's educational policy, protect citizens' right to education according to law, and run a satisfactory education for the people. In accordance with the requirements of giving priority to development, educating people, reforming and innovating, promoting fairness and improving quality, we will promote the development of educational science and improve the level of educational modernization. "The Outline of the National Medium-and Long-Term Education Reform and Development Plan (20 10-2020)" promulgated last year also put forward for the first time that "promoting fairness is the national basic education policy". Du Yubo, Vice Minister of Education, said in an interview recently that during the Twelfth Five-Year Plan period, the state will optimize the allocation of educational resources, promote the balanced development of compulsory education, further expand the scope of state funding policies, and maximize educational equity.

Promote the standardization of compulsory education schools.

Make the school the best building in the area.

At present, the imbalance in the allocation of educational resources between urban and rural areas has become the biggest obstacle to achieving educational equity. To narrow the educational gap between urban and rural areas, we must first improve the conditions for running schools in poor rural areas. Therefore, the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" outlines the standardization construction of compulsory education schools as the first of the top ten key education development projects, and proposes that "weak compulsory education schools should be reformed during the" Twelfth Five-Year Plan "period to achieve the basic standards of urban and rural primary and secondary school buildings, teachers, equipment, books and sports venues".

In recent years, the state has been committed to changing the backward situation of education in rural poverty-stricken areas, and leaning towards rural poverty-stricken areas in terms of capital investment and policy measures. According to Du Yubo, last year, 8.3 billion yuan was spent on the renovation plan of weak schools in rural compulsory education, and 500 million yuan was spent on the pilot construction of teachers' revolving dormitories in rural schools in the central and western regions. In this year's government budget, 654.38+065.5438+04 billion yuan has been allocated for continuing to implement the reform plan for weak schools in rural compulsory education. It is clear in the 12th Five-Year Plan that fiscal education expenditure will account for 4% of GDP in 20 12 years. He said that the new investment in education is mainly used to promote educational equity and improve the quality of education. The central government will continue to increase its support for rural education in the central and western regions, and local finance should also focus on supporting the educational development in rural and underdeveloped areas of this province.

Recently, the Ministry of Education signed a memorandum of balanced development of compulsory education with Beijing, Liaoning, Guangdong and other 16 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), and all provinces promised to gradually realize the basic balanced development of county-level compulsory education with the support of the Ministry of Education. Du Yubo said, I believe that with the joint efforts of the central and local governments, the education situation in rural poverty-stricken areas will be greatly improved, schools will become the best buildings in the area, and the education gap with towns or developed areas will gradually narrow.

Encourage outstanding talents to engage in education for life.

Make teachers the most respected profession.

Poor school infrastructure and low treatment of teaching staff are the fundamental reasons why most urban and rural schools can't retain and recruit people. Especially in poor rural areas, the brain drain of front-line teachers is serious, and some normal graduates prefer to work in developed cities rather than teach in rural areas. It is the key to narrow the education gap, promote education equity, enrich the teachers in ordinary schools, especially in rural poverty-stricken areas, and improve the overall level of teachers.

The Twelfth Five-Year Plan outlines "encouraging outstanding talents to teach for life". As the "detailed road map" of the education part of the Twelfth Five-Year Plan, the Outline of the National Medium-and Long-term Education Reform and Development Plan also clearly stated that during the Twelfth Five-Year Plan period, China will continue to implement the special post plan for school teachers in rural compulsory education, and strengthen the training of all teachers and the construction of teachers in weak disciplines in rural schools. This is the state's affirmation and strengthening of improving rural school conditions, improving the treatment of rural teachers, successively implementing the pilot work of free education for normal students, the national training plan for primary and secondary school teachers, encouraging college graduates to teach in rural areas, and training all primary and secondary school teachers in the country with rural teachers as the focus.

During the Eleventh Five-Year Plan period, some provinces have made some achievements in the construction of rural teachers. For example, in 2004 and 2005, Hubei successively launched the "Rural Teacher Funding Action Plan" and the "Rural Teacher Quality Improvement Project". Over the past seven years, 28 1 universities 16446 undergraduate and above graduates have been sent to 1300 township schools to teach. A large-scale free training for teachers and principals of rural primary and secondary schools in Wuhan universities was carried out. In the first stage, 654.38 million primary and secondary school teachers and principals in 87 counties and cities were trained. Yuan Guiren, Minister of Education, said that teachers should be the most respected profession. During the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, teachers who have been working in rural grass-roots units and hard and remote areas for a long time will be given preferential policies in terms of wages and salaries, positions (titles), and pilot reform of special post allowances for rural teachers will be carried out.

Expand the coverage of state funding policies.

So that students will not drop out of school because of family difficulties.

The education of children from poor families has always been the focus of attention. Xu Mei, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Education, said that China has established a funding system covering all levels and types of education. At present, the number of students receiving state aid in China is 65.438+0.8 billion, and the aid in 2065.438+00 reached 565.438+0 billion yuan. The "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" even emphasizes the need to "improve the national funding system and help students from poor families complete their studies".

According to Zhang Guangming, deputy director of the National Student Financial Assistance Management Center, starting from the fall semester of 20 10, the central and local governments jointly set up national grants for ordinary senior high schools, accounting for about 20% of the total, with an average subsidy standard of per student 1500 yuan. Recently, the central government allocated 2.24 billion yuan of state grants for ordinary high schools in the spring semester of 201/kloc-0, and about 4.8 million students from poor families in ordinary high schools will receive grants. "This marks that China has basically improved the financial aid policy system for students with financial difficulties from primary schools to universities."

The children of migrant workers' right to education is also guaranteed. According to reports, in the past three years, the central government has allocated 6.2 billion yuan to solve the problem of migrant workers' children going to school. At present, nearly 80% of the children of migrant workers attend public schools, and the problem of compulsory education for these children has been basically solved. Du Yubo said that the Ministry of Education encourages and supports local governments to study and formulate measures for local entrance examinations for children of migrant workers after receiving compulsory education. The children of migrant workers are expected to take the entrance examination and college entrance examination in the city where their parents work.
