When you go to school, you also have to fill in the income of your parents
Recently, a parent broke the news that the mental health file form of a middle school student in Hebei Province requires the parents' occupation and annual family income to be filled in.
In this regard, many netizens questioned: What is the purpose of the school to collect parents' information?Is there any necessary relationship between the education that children receive in school and the position and income of their parents?
Subsequently, the local education and sports bureau responded, ** is designed by the school itself, "family income level may affect the child's psychology", fill in the income situation to facilitate the teacher to pay more attention to the child. If parents do not want to disclose their annual income, they can write the income range or leave it blank.
The school's staff said that some privacy content can be filled in or not, and "there is no need to be so serious".
The school is always "staring".Parental Personal Information
In fact, this is not an isolated case. In addition to filling in their basic information, some children also have to fill in the position and income of their parents, which seems to have become the performance of the so-called "fine management" of many schools.
The teacher classifies the students into 11 categories
In 2021, the statistical table of a primary school in Yuanping City, Xinzhou, Shanxi Province, classified students into 11 categories, including "children of leaders", "children of powerful monopoly departments", "students whose parents have criminal records", etc.
On November 2, 2021, the Yuanping Municipal Education Bureau responded that it had been processed.
In view of the situation that the No. 1 Primary School in Yuanping City, Xinzhou, Shanxi Province, had teachers count the family backgrounds of students and divided them into 11 categories, such as "children of leaders" and "children of business owners", the city's Education and Science Bureau instructed the schools involved to correct the wrong practices, do a good job of communicating and explaining with parents, and at the same time launched the accountability of relevant personnel.
In September 2021, when students enrolled in a kindergarten in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, the head teacher asked parents to fill in information such as their unit and position. The head teacher emphasized that the above information cannot be left blank, otherwise the student registration system will not be recorded.
This news has attracted widespread attention from netizens, and the reason is very simple. Many people have the same worries as parents: after filling in the unit and position, will the child be treated differently?
Yes**I have called the kindergarten many times, but the other party has not answered**. The local education bureau said that the incident was a personal act of the teacher, and normally only the location and address information of the household registration were registered.
On July 30, 2020, the first kindergarten in Jingcheng County, Shijiazhuang, asked parents to provide salary details in the enrollment announcement, which aroused heated discussions among netizens.
Some parents said that the salary is personal privacy, and such a request from the kindergarten is disgusting.
In this regard, the staff of the park explained that the park mainly recruits the children of employees of county organs, enterprises and institutions, which is to avoid parents from using false work certificates to occupy the number of places in the park.
In the afternoon of the same day, the staff of the Jingcheng County Education Bureau responded that there would be no adjustment to the kindergarten entry regulations for the time being.
On August 1, 2020, the official WeChat *** Jingcheng Government Affairs "released the latest response, saying that the Jingcheng County Party Committee and the county ** attach great importance to this and immediately set up a working group to investigate and deal with it. At the same time, the county education bureau was instructed to take this as a warning to educate the majority of teachers and staff in the county on teacher ethics and teacher style, so as to improve the people's satisfaction with the education work.
At the same time, on July 31, 2020, Jingcheng County No. 1 Kindergarten posted a correction statement on the qualification review of kindergartens.
The statement made it clear that the qualification review of admission to the kindergarten will no longer provide the "salary flow details issued by the bank" certification materials, and at the same time, the registration time for children's admission will be postponed, and the specific matters will be notified separately.
Children go to school
Should I fill in my job title and income?
Previously, some netizens reported on the "leadership message board" of People's Daily Online that many schools require students to fill in information such as their parents, grandparents' work units and positions when they enroll, hoping to prohibit this behavior and only register the basic information of parents.
The netizen hopes that "on the premise of doing a good job in double reduction, we will promote educational fairness." In response to the problem reported by the netizen, the Beijing Municipal Education Commission replied that the information was strictly confidential and not released to ordinary teachers, and that it was studying the cancellation of the collection of information on parents' positions.
Excessive collection of information unrelated to teaching, such as parents' positions, units, and even their houses, vehicles, etc., will inevitably make people think about whether this is convenient for "teaching and educating people" or taking the opportunity to "identify and recognize people"?
Some people are worried that the level of parents' positions and incomes will not lead to differential treatment of children, which in turn will induce rent-seeking behaviors in the dark. Some people are also worried about whether the difference in growth and environment has caused a stereotype of children, and as a result, it conveys the misorientation of disliking the poor and loving the rich.
After all, at the level of education, this is contrary to the idea that there is no class in education;At the legal level, it is even more suspected of violating personal privacy.
It is precisely because of this concern that on April 1, 2022, the General Office of the Ministry of Education issued the Notice on Further Improving the Enrollment and Enrollment of Ordinary Primary and Secondary Schools (hereinafter referred to as the "Notice").
The "Notice" makes it clear that the unnecessary proof materials such as preschool education experience, family planning certificates, and certificates of exceeding the normal school age will be completely cleaned up and cancelled. It is strictly forbidden to collect information on students' parents' positions and incomes, and must not use all kinds of apps and mini programs to arbitrarily and repeatedly collect information about students.
Although this requirement is specific to admissions, the spirit behind it is the same: to reduce unnecessary information collection, protect student privacy as much as possible, and create a fair and healthy learning environment for students.
Of course, it is also necessary to see that this way of collecting family income information is also understood by some people to a certain extent, for example, a parent said in an interview that "teachers fully understand some of the family situations of students' parents, which is conducive to daily education management." ”
*: Visual China.
There is some truth in this, and by understanding more about the student's family background, the school and the teacher can certainly have a more thorough understanding of a student, and the teaching methods may be more targeted.
However, education that revolves around "family income" is extensive and rigid after all. It is obviously inappropriate for schools and teachers to lack the ability and willingness to communicate with students in depth, but they are more willing to quickly "profile" and "file" students through the investigation of family conditions.
In the final analysis, the quality of school management and teacher teaching has nothing to do with information such as "household income". It's a basic truth that you should get to know each student face-to-face, not rely on data or information.
For teachers, in order to ensure that they are not troubled by too many non-teaching matters, they may wish to grasp the psychological dynamics of students more comprehensively through home visits, chatting with students, etc., to ensure that education is implemented. For parents, they should also learn more about their children's performance in school and kindergarten, take the initiative to communicate with teachers, and jointly take on the responsibility of cultivating and educating children.
*: Visual China.
Education is related to the long-term development of the country, and every detail of education work is related to the success or failure of education. Therefore, all localities must not have an ambiguous mentality in dealing with the "small actions" in this kind of education, and must truly give full play to the value of school education and provide necessary support for the growth of every child under the concept of educational fairness and education without distinction.
