The deputies to the National People's Congress suggested that "the high school should be popularized and the school system should be shortened," and parents expressed their support one after another
The heavy weight of schoolwork is both loved and hated. Under the high school entrance examination diversion policy, half of the students will not be able to enter high school after the high school entrance examination. Although the most annoying homework no longer bothers students, many students have repented of their repentance, how good it would have been if they had studied hard at the beginning, and they would not have entered a vocational high school after graduating from junior high school.
With the development of the times, academic qualifications have become a necessary factor in job hunting and mate selection, and university degrees have become the initial goals of students. The number of college students who are going to graduate school for a doctorate has increased sharply, making many junior high school parents more anxious. If students don't even get into high school, they won't have a chance at college, and the gap with their peers is getting bigger and bigger.
In order to get rid of the fate of being diverted, parents spare no effort to create better conditions for students, and the pressure on students to go on to higher education continues to rise. The double reduction policy has also failed to stop the pace of student involution. Parents are also very distressed to see children who are studying hard. In addition to making students study hard, perhaps only the cancellation of the high school entrance examination can reduce their pressure.
The deputies of the National People's Congress spoke out for the high school entrance examination and put forward the proposal of "popularizing high schools and shortening the school system", and parents expressed their support. More and more parents are concerned about education, and the level of education directly affects academic qualifications and future development. From the beginning of preschool education, parents have educational anxiety and hope to provide better educational resources for students. After years of savings, they did not hesitate to invest all their money in education, and many parents became more anxious when they looked at their increasingly thin wallets.
In the eyes of parents, students should be admitted to school from junior high school all the way to university. Parents will continue to invest if their students want to further their education. But some parents have "money but no land to spend". If students are shunted to vocational and technical schools, the cost of education will be greatly reduced, and the academic qualifications will be greatly reduced. Especially for children from ordinary families, the college entrance examination is an opportunity to change their fate. But if you don't even get into high school, going to university has become a luxury. The diversion of the high school entrance examination makes parents anxious and students anxious.
The call for the abolition of the high school entrance examination is increasing, and many parents believe that they should wait until they graduate from high school to carry out the diversion, which will greatly reduce the pressure of going to higher education, and more students will receive high school education. By the time they graduate from high school, students are already on the verge of adulthood and have more rational choices about their future. The students who were shunted for the high school entrance examination were too young.
Gan Huatian, a deputy to the National People's Congress, has the same views on education as some parents. As a professor and doctoral supervisor of West China Hospital of Sichuan University, Professor Gan said that it is necessary to cancel the high school entrance examination and popularize high school.
Today's junior high school students are affected by going on to higher education, and their studies are under great pressure. If the pressure of the examination is transferred to high school, primary and secondary school students can also study hard in moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic and labor aspects, which is in line with the mainstream of quality education. Professor Gan also said that the nine-year compulsory education is too long, so the school system can be shortened and changed to the "532" school system, and after graduating from university, you can enter the society two years earlier.
Professor Kam also has unique insights when it comes to talent selection. He believes that the difficulty of courses and examinations should be controlled, and the transition from selection to achievement should be changed to reduce the burden on students at the source. Many parents shouted for support after hearing this.
Should the high school entrance examination be cancelled?Several scholars have similar views.
China has been influenced by examination-oriented education for a long time, and has certain advantages in selecting talents. However, for students, the escalating involution leaves them physically and mentally exhausted. Parents also feel very distressed about these students who are studying hard. Scholar Liang Jianzhang said that the current problem of involution in basic education is too serious, and the cancellation of the high school entrance examination and the popularization of high school are one of the ways to alleviate it.
He also suggested that the secondary school period could be shortened to four years. Doing so will not only reinvigorate the labor market, but also ease parents' educational anxiety.
Yao Yang, a professor at Peking University, has a similar view, saying that premature diversion is not good for students. He proposed universal high school and 10 years of compulsory education. In order to alleviate the burden on students, the cancellation of the high school entrance examination and the popularization of high school may be the first choice. He said that in their time, students also came through this education model, which was more beneficial to the growth of students.
These scholars have roughly the same view. Nowadays, the pressure of students to study is huge, coupled with the influence of adolescence, more and more students have a rebellious mentality. Due to their young age, junior high school graduates are not yet mentally mature. If they don't even have the opportunity to enter high school, after entering the society, their academic qualifications and knowledge may be relatively low, and it will be difficult for them to achieve good development, and they may only be able to engage in grassroots positions.
This seems unfair to some students, after all, there are many late-maturing students. If they have the opportunity to go to high school, they will be more knowledgeable and more mature when they enter society. Even if you can't get into university, your options in the future will be more diverse.
Author's Note: Like the remarks of Professor Gan and other scholars, it touches on the sensitive points in the hearts of parents. Parents have paid a huge cost in education, and they don't want a high school entrance examination to make all this go down the drain, let alone see students stagnate. This is a reflection of the educational anxiety of parents, who always expect their children to have a better life.
Educational reform requires all-round consideration, and it is difficult to change it in a short period of time. Students and parents need to look at it rationally, and we expect relevant departments to pay more attention to the voices of parents.
