In the same year, the proportion of rural registered students in the national college entrance examination reached 62%.
Data information and objective facts illustrate such a reality: from then on, key universities have gradually become cities' universities.
Why do domestic key famous universities "favor" urban students? Some university admissions staff put forward this statement:
1. Some key universities have a high threshold for independent enrollment. A large number of enrollment places are immediately extended to key middle schools all over the country, and the standards recommended by individuals generally stipulate provincial and ministerial model high school students. There are no rural colleges and students.
2. Institutions of higher learning do not have enough management power to recruit students. They only recruit students from high to low according to their grades and rankings. When enrolling students, they only look at the scores, and they can't tell whether the students are from rural areas or cities.
Objectively, there should be no doubt that the total number of students in famous universities in cities is much higher than that in rural areas. This objective fact not only exposes the disadvantages of the rules and regulations of college entrance examination enrollment, but also shows that the distribution of educational resources is seriously unfair and uneven. This unfairness and inequality has long been broadened from higher education to preschool education.
Professor Chu Yin, an expert: The number of rural children attending key universities is decreasing, and the problem of younger age should attract new attention.
In ordinary high school political textbooks, everyone has studied and trained the classic exposition of Marxism, and clearly put forward that capitalist society should solve exploitation and eliminate the "three major differences", namely, the difference between workers and peasants, the difference between urban and rural areas, and the difference between brain and physical labor.
In China, which is still in the primary stage of socialist society, the "urban-rural difference" obviously exists objectively. How to realize educational equity as much as possible on the premise of acknowledging differences is a difficult problem that should be considered and dealt with.
Someone summed up three "fairness" of educational fairness: fairness in starting point, fairness in process and fairness in result. If preschool education to higher education is regarded as a detailed whole process of education, there is no doubt that the distribution of existing educational resources in China is obviously unfair from the starting point, the whole process to the result.
Fair starting point: in rural areas, no more than 40% can receive preschool education, which is generally regarded as the key cornerstone of a person's life. The lack of education in this link, in a sense, represents falling on the starting line.
Fairness in the whole process: In cities, children can participate in various interest training courses, and the sources of information content are more colorful, including in examination questions, and there are even more topics related to urban daily life than in rural areas, so rural children will inevitably lose in the market competition.
Fair result: Many key universities are concentrated in economically developed areas and big cities, and the proportion of local students enrolled by such universities is much larger, which also leads to certain shortcomings of rural students in this market competition.
In China's college entrance examination reform program, the credibility and fairness of recruiting and selecting talents are based on the universal norm that all grades are equal. At present, the openness and transparency of China's college entrance examination enrollment is still very trustworthy. The supervision of enrollment in colleges and universities should focus on the existing policies such as independent enrollment in colleges and universities and their implementation of various types and different purposes, further reflecting the value rationality of social development fairness.
Therefore, the fairness of basic education is very important. If there are fewer rural students who can get excellent courses in primary and secondary education, then in this year's college entrance examination market competition, there will definitely be fewer rural students with competitive scores.
In recent years, there are more and more phenomena of inefficient allocation of quality education resources in basic education.
Some colleges and universities have gathered excellent enrollment, teachers and classroom teaching standards and shifted their focus to large and medium-sized cities such as provincial capitals. In some provinces where higher education resources are scarce, only a handful of key high schools can enroll students in Peking University and Tsinghua. Taking Hebei as an example, only one Hengshui school in Hebei basically monopolized the places for most students in Hebei Province to enter national key universities. There are so many places in good schools such as the resumption of diplomatic relations in the north of Qing Dynasty, which is equivalent to a kind of harm to students in other cities in Hebei Province.
As far as the efforts and diligence of families and students themselves are concerned, when everyone sits down, they can stand up and see more clearly; When everyone is standing, you can see better on tiptoe. But when everyone stood on tiptoe, no one could see clearly. This is the popular online vocabulary "involution of education": the children at home gradually learn the contents of the first grade of primary and secondary schools, and I enter the second grade; You sign up for 500 yuan after-school classes, and I sign up for 1000 yuan after-school classes; Children at home sleep at night 10, starting at 6: 00 in the morning, and children at home sleep at night 1 1, starting at 5: 00 in the morning. ...
This vicious price competition is only to better improve the test scores of more than ten points. Everyone is very tired, and the final admission places are still these, and the overall education level has not improved. The most harmful thing is that hard work gives up a lot of time for physical exercise and labor practice, and the improvement of this achievement has not produced a lot of concrete use value and great significance for children's all-round development and happy growth in the future.
As far as social development is concerned, as some parents often say: if you don't participate, you will be eliminated. In the rapid expansion of academic qualifications and the decline in diploma prices, my enthusiasm for family asset allocation education is high, just to better avoid being eliminated prematurely.
Many authoritative education experts have accused this kind of education of "space competition", but poor children have long been unable to play this kind of competition. I used to stay at the bottom, but now I have to use all my strength to solve the problem, and the funds are flying. All the children of the poor want is to get rid of poverty. If they slow down, it means that they can't find a place from now on and can only be content with poverty.
Authoritative experts in education emphasize that poverty does not stop at the absolute poverty of necessities such as food, clothing, housing and transportation. Poverty here should refer to the loss of ability to work. It is because I have the ability, literacy and thought to do a certain field and a certain job, but I have no chance to help me.
Then, relying on education to improve themselves, change the status quo and cultivate themselves, can poor children still have reasons to cherish, choose at will and have the ability to cultivate?
"Kings and princes are alike, but there is something better"-the reason why the poor can't be poor and the rich can't be rich is the basic understanding of fairness and justice in China's economy.
Education itself should be the key way to promote the upward mobility of classes. At present, higher education should get rid of the dilemma of "ordinary colleges and universities are not ordinary, and vocational and technical schools are not employed" as soon as possible, so as to ensure that education can "seek politics in its place and use its strengths", and also for students to step into a higher level of social development, gain more knowledge and lay a more solid foundation of ability in the future. In addition, it is very important to actively create an effective internal letter of the entrance examination and student employment system for the development of the trend education selection system. To put it simply, ordinary high school students in the future should never go to "crossing the river with millions of soldiers". If you want to be a blue-collar worker in processing and manufacturing, you must go to vocational and technical schools in higher vocational colleges. Those who want to be doctors, criminal defense lawyers and teachers must take technical courses for further study; If you want to engage in scientific research, you should study for a master's degree or a doctor's degree ... and study and train according to different academic qualifications, so that everyone can have an excellent performance stage.
Education equity is the basis of social development equity. Whether you are in a relatively disadvantaged area or at home, you can firmly believe that you can get a way to improve and an opportunity to change your life according to your diligence. That's all that matters. When I was a student, if I lost my confidence, it might be something that everyone didn't want to see.
