In the weather of minus 5 degrees Celsius somewhere in Jiangsu, a small school issued a rule: students cannot enter the classroom in advance and must wait at the door. The news drew dissatisfaction and criticism from parents of the students, who accused the school's rules of being inhumane. However, the underlying issues are more complex.
In the cold weather of minus five degrees, the students were forced to wait at the cold door, their bodies shaking involuntarily. Such a scene makes one can't help but imagine their frozen purple fingers and their breath frozen in their mouths. Some children may be more hardy with cold, but for others with poor physique, the cold may have a negative impact on their physical health. This is not only an inhumane regulation, but also an irresponsibility for the health of children.
In addition, the issue of time is also a factor to consider. Arriving early at school is a common phenomenon and can give students more time for self-directed learning, allowing them to adjust and prepare for themselves. However, school regulations limit students' time and space and do not give them enough time to prepare, which can affect their learning status and performance.
Behind the school's policy of not allowing students to enter the classroom early is a deeper problem: the attitude of parents towards education and the change of education ecology.
In the past few years, parents have had an increasing influence on education, and they are pursuing prestigious schools and high grades, rather than focusing on the overall development of students and the cultivation of personal interests. Many parents of students believe that learning is not the main task of students, and they think that they can do a good job in the family industry without studying mathematics, physics and chemistry. The popularity of this concept has led to the gradual loss of students' autonomy and creativity in education, and they no longer work hard to study, but to study for exams.
At the same time, education experts and teachers with senior professional titles have also begun to cater to the mentality of students' parents, abandoning the educational philosophy they originally adhered to, and becoming convergent and compromised. When they face the parents of students, they agree with their views, but behind their backs they criticize and ridicule ordinary teachers. This dual attitude makes education gradually lose its self and the spirit of independent thinking in the process of pursuing prestigious schools and high grades, and becomes a slave-like tool that submits to the wishes of parents.
Another issue that creates conflict between students, parents, and teachers is school injuries. Since parents do not allow teachers to criticize and discipline students, the school becomes an uninhibited place where students can bully and hurt others at will. When there is a problem of school harm, teachers are often the first to blame, and they are questioned by parents why they did not take good care of their children and why they were harmed.
In response to such accusations, schools have had to put in place some regulations and measures to ensure the safety of the campus. Not allowing students to arrive at school early is one of them. However, in the process, teachers have to take on more responsibility and pressure, they have to arrive early, be like monkeys, and remain on high alert until the end of the day.
Education is a complex and sensitive field that requires the joint efforts of all parties to solve its problems. Although the school's rules do not allow students to enter the classroom early, although they expose the problems and contradictions in education, it is not enough to blame the school's rules. We should pay more attention to the nature of education and the development of students, and at the same time, we should also pay attention to the rights and responsibilities of teachers.
Parents need to realize that education is not only about pursuing prestigious schools and high grades, but also about cultivating students' abilities and morals. They should give teachers more trust and support instead of constantly blaming and complaining. Education experts and teachers with senior professional titles should also stick to their own ideas and not follow the crowd and be willing to compromise.
When it comes to school injuries, schools and teachers need to establish better prevention mechanisms and coping strategies, and at the same time, they need to communicate and cooperate more with students' parents to jointly maintain the safety and order of the campus.
Finally, I hope that the society can pay more attention to education issues, pay attention to the rights and interests of teachers and students, and work together for the development of education. We should abandon the impetuous mentality, think calmly and solve problems, instead of blindly blaming and complaining. Only in this way can we establish a truly healthy and harmonious educational environment.
