The issue of charging for homework during the winter vacation has sparked heated discussions among parents and netizens. One parent said in his complaint that he found that his child's winter vacation homework issued by the school required an additional fee, which cost 50 yuan per homework. And the paper quality and print quality of these jobs are not good, giving people a sense of piracy. Parents questioned why the school charged such a high fee and tore off the cover and back of the assignment. In response to the parents' questions, the school responded that the fees were normal and explained that the cover was torn off for the total review of the next semester. However, these responses did not calm the doubts of netizens.
Some netizens said that the problems found by parents are not isolated cases, and that there is a similar situation in their own children's schools, and there is an additional fee for homework during the winter vacation. They questioned why they were charged before their winter vacation homework and what they were for. These questions pale in the response of schools and education boards. Netizens believe that since the winter vacation homework is free, and the writing and printing are also carried out in accordance with the regulations of the education department, the reason for tearing off the cover and back is redundant. This series of questions and dissatisfaction made parents and netizens reluctant to accept the explanations of the school and the Education Bureau.
In fact, this is not the first time that schools have "indiscriminately charged". Many parents and students have suffered from this. Teaching and school services, which used to be free, have now become fee-based, increasing the burden on students and parents. These so-called expenses, under the guise of "good for children", have become a kind of consumption. And this phenomenon is no longer the behavior of individual schools, but a universal problem. Schools, teachers and authorities are forced to find various reasons to collect fees from students and parents, which has eroded the credibility of schools and education bureaus.
This phenomenon not only raises questions about the integrity of schools, but also leads to a decrease in the willingness of parents and students to cooperate with schools and education bureaus. Although teachers complain that students and parents are "not good at serving", they ignore the impact of their own "riotous operations". Education should be an all-round education, not just an academic one. Schools, teachers, and authorities should devote their time and energy to how to teach and educate people better, rather than indulging in irregularities such as "indiscriminate fees". In this way, we can win back the trust of students and parents, alleviate the conflict between home and school, and form a truly good educational environment.
In this era of transparency, schools and education departments must face up to online voices and explain and respond to relevant issues. Only by truly returning to the original intention, fairness and transparency, can parents and students rebuild their trust in education. At the same time, we also hope that parents can participate more actively in the supervision of school education, find problems and raise them in time, and jointly promote the development and progress of education.
In short, the issue of winter vacation homework fees is not just an isolated case, but a common problem that needs to be paid attention to by relevant departments. On the premise of protecting students' rights and interests and educational fairness, schools and education bureaus should strengthen supervision, eliminate the phenomenon of arbitrary fees, and restore their credibility. Only in this way can we establish a good relationship between home and school and provide a better educational environment for students.
