Since the reform and opening up, China's rural education has undergone earth-shaking changes. Especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, rural education has received unprecedented attention and development. The proposal of the rural revitalization strategy has injected new vitality into rural education and significantly improved the quality of rural education.
In this historic process, the education policy of the party and the state has gradually tilted toward the rural areas, providing strong policy support for the development of rural education. The best at all levels responded positively, increased investment, improved the conditions for running schools in rural areas, improved the treatment of teachers, and attracted outstanding teachers to teach in rural areas. At the same time, through various forms of training and exchange activities, the teaching level and professional quality of rural teachers have been improved, so that the quality of rural education has been greatly improved.
In order to further consolidate and expand the achievements of rural education, all localities have actively established leading groups for the prevention and control of dropouts and school guarantees, and improved the responsibility system for which schools and parents are jointly responsible. Through the implementation of dropout control and school protection responsibilities at all levels, we ensure that every child can receive the education they deserve. Carry out regular surveys every year, accurately establish school accounts for students at all levels, and persuade dropouts to return. At the same time, we should strengthen the care and assistance for students in poor areas and poor families, and provide them with more educational resources and opportunities.
In the process, the hardware facilities of rural education have been greatly improved. Newly built school buildings, modern teaching equipment, and abundant library materials have gradually narrowed the gap between rural schools and urban schools. At the same time, the development of network technology has also brought new opportunities for rural education, and new forms of education such as distance education and first-class courses have gradually become popular, so that rural students can enjoy more high-quality educational resources.
In addition to the improvement of hardware facilities, the software strength of rural education has also been improved. The overall quality of the teaching staff has been continuously improved, the teaching methods and curriculum content have become closer to the actual situation in rural areas, and attention has been paid to cultivating students' practical ability and innovative spirit. At all levels, we have also actively guided social forces to participate in rural education, carried out various forms of educational assistance activities, and formed a good atmosphere for the whole society to pay attention to and support rural education.
The vigorous development of rural education has provided a strong talent guarantee for the implementation of the rural revitalization strategy. More and more rural children have walked out of the mountains and poverty through receiving a good education, and have become useful talents in society. They shine in their respective fields and have made great contributions to the development of their country and hometown.
At the same time, the popularization and improvement of rural education has also provided intellectual support for the transformation and upgrading of the rural economy. More and more farmers are beginning to value education and are willing to invest in their children's future. This has not only improved the quality and skill level of the peasants, but also injected new vitality into the sustainable development of the rural economy.
