Reform education. It mainly includes "stopping the imperial examination", "setting up schools" and "rewarding study tours". In the twenty-seventh year of Guangxu, the Qing court set up universities, middle schools and primary schools throughout the country; In the twenty-eighth year of Guangxu, the imperial court once again ordered all provinces to send students to various countries to pay attention to specialized studies, and those who succeeded in their studies returned to China for appointment. At that time, the number of students studying in Japan was the largest, and many foreign students accepted the bourgeois democratic revolutionary thought abroad and became an important force in the democratic revolutionary movement in the future. In the twenty-ninth year of Guangxu, the student charter was promulgated. At this time, school graduates at all levels are given titles such as Gong Sheng, Juren and Jinshi, and it is stipulated that those who pass the examination according to the imperial examination system must enter Beijing Normal University. In the 30th year of Guangxu, the school charter was promulgated, which was the first modern education system in China promulgated by law and implemented nationwide, and laid the foundation for the modern education system in China. In the thirty-first year of Guangxu, the imperial examination system was officially abolished from the following year. The abolition of the imperial examination accelerated the pace of establishing a school. According to the statistics of the Ministry of Education, there are 4,222 ethnic schools with 92,000 students in 65,438+0904. 1909, the total number of schools soared to 52,000, with students156,000. The number of international students has also increased significantly. A new group of intellectuals, different from the old literati and feudal literati, began to be active on the historical stage and played an increasingly important role in political and social life. After they accepted western learning more or less, they gradually went to the opposite side of the court under the stimulation of the national crisis and became a social force that was not controlled by the Qing rulers.
