-Treatment
The "Measures" stipulate that normal students in free education will be exempted from tuition and accommodation fees during their study at school, and will also subsidize living expenses. The required funds are arranged by the central finance. Normal colleges and universities directly under the Ministry of Education are enrolled in batches in advance, and outstanding high school graduates who love education and are interested in long-term and lifelong teaching are selected.
"Two Exemptions and One Supplement" for Free Normal Students
The "Measures" stipulate that outstanding non-normal students who are interested in teaching and meet the requirements can be transferred to the normal major within two years after entering school, and the school will refund the tuition and accommodation fees according to the standard, and reissue the living allowance. Free normal students can choose the second major within the scope of normal majors according to the regulations of the school.
You can transfer to a major within a normal major.
-Restrictions
The "Measures" stipulate that free normal students should sign an agreement with the school and the provincial education administrative department where the students are located before entering the school, and promise to engage in primary and secondary education after graduation 10 years or more. Free normal graduates who work in urban schools should first teach in rural compulsory education schools for 2 years. The state encourages free normal graduates to teach for a long time and for life.
Free normal graduates generally return to teach in primary and secondary schools in the province where the students come from. The relevant provincial governments should do a good job in receiving free normal graduates and ensure that every free normal graduate has a job.
Free normal graduates who fail to engage in primary and secondary education as agreed shall refund the free education fees they have enjoyed and pay liquidated damages. Provincial education administrative departments are responsible for performance management, and establish free credit files for normal students. If the agreement cannot be fulfilled due to special reasons, it shall be reported to the provincial education administrative department for approval.
If the contract is not fulfilled, the penalty shall be paid.
Free normal students are generally not allowed to apply for full-time graduate students before graduation and during the service period stipulated in the agreement. Graduates who meet the requirements after examination can be admitted as graduate students with master's degree in education, study professional courses on the job, pass the teaching assessment and pass the thesis defense, and be awarded master's diploma and master's degree certificate.
Full-time graduate students cannot be admitted before graduation.
