Squeezing the rest time of teachers and students, the routine operation of many schools

Mondo Health Updated on 2024-01-30

In the current educational environment, students and teachers are under heavy pressure and burden, which is widely considered problematic. Although all parties are aware of this, no effective solution has been found at the moment.

According to the feedback of netizens, the junior high school of a primary school in Tanghe County, Nanyang, Henan Province, has seriously squeezed the rest time of teachers and students. According to reports, teachers and students of the school got up at 5:15 a.m. and left school at 10 p.m., and the students slept for less than seven hours. Many students were worried about being late, and even packed their clothes after 4 o'clock.

On November 10, Tanghe County** replied, saying that the county education and sports bureau instructed the school to adjust the school's work and rest schedule, strictly implement the regulations on sleep management, and ensure that junior high school students have 9 hours of sleep.

According to the response of the local **, the situation reported by netizens is basically true. The school involved had problems such as insufficient sleep time, long Xi study time, no lunch break, and insufficient meal time. These blunt statements reveal a sense of repression and shatter the perceived delusions of part of the public about the school.

In accordance with the regulations of the Ministry of Education and the spirit of "double reduction", the behavior of the schools involved should be dealt with seriously. However, judging from the official response, it only asked the school involved to adjust the work and rest time, and did not deal with the relevant responsible persons, nor did it investigate whether there was a similar phenomenon in other schools. With such an official response and solution to this standard, we cannot determine whether it will be effective in curbing similar behavior in local schools.

The public is impressed, but colleagues in the education industry may have Xi it. In some places, under the banner of "learning Xi and Hengshui model", militarized management has been adopted to squeeze the rest time of teachers and students into the norm, making teachers and students exhausted. They trade time for points and health for grades. In the past, this approach may have been effective in improving student achievement and increasing school progression rates through question and time management. However, with the advancement of the college entrance examination reform, the effect of simply brushing questions is not good. However, many schools still do not dare to relax a little, fearing that if they do, students' grades will drop significantly, affecting their reputation and political performance. Although they know that fatigue tactics don't do much.

Bureaucracy and utilitarianism in education are one of the main causes of many problems in the field of education. In order to pursue the promotion rate and short-term performance, some school leaders often ignore the physical and mental health of teachers and students and the quality of education, resulting in the squeezing of teachers' and students' rest time and the damage to their physical and mental health.

At the same time, some schools take the promotion rate as the primary indicator, because it is an important basis for the higher education department to evaluate the school leaders, and it is also the capital for their own promotion. For this reason, some schools do not hesitate to sacrifice the physical and mental health of students and teachers, and use one paper after another to build their own "beautiful" admission data, which seems to be a success, but the price behind it is not small.

This practice of simply focusing on the improvement of grades and ignoring students' moral and psychological education has led to the fact that some students have "become talents" but have not even erased the uniqueness of students and ruined their lives. At the same time, ignoring the health cost of teachers, requiring teachers to accompany students around the clock, and indefinitely encroaching on teachers' living time and space, resulting in a doubling of teachers' professional burnout, losing the foundation of sustainable development of education, and ruining the education ecology of a school.

Learning Xi is a very happy thing, but for various reasons, the original fun of learning Xi is deprived, and the only things left are exams, scores, involution and fatigue, it is difficult to really awaken the consciousness that students should have.

However, it is a pity that the students and teachers who are squeezed out of the rest time basically have no right to speak, and can only do what they are asked to do, and they do not have much ability to resist, and can only hope for the awakening of some parents. Because parents' complaints and suggestions are often somewhat effective, but it is also a sad thing.

Education is a grand and long-term topic, destined to affect thousands of families and the fate of many people. However, due to various factors, some schools have chosen fatigue tactics, which seriously restricts the healthy development of education, and urgently needs to be faced and solved by the public.
