Three District school uniforms to achieve free economic strength
this time, Zhangqiu will be free for the whole district primary, three, five grade, junior middle school one or two, senior middle school one or two, and secondary vocational school one or two grade uniforms, each grade includes summer clothes, spring and autumn uniform school uniform, children's medium and small term No more money to buy school uniforms.
in fact, before Zhangqiu, two districts had already taken the school uniform free step. Among them, the region is the earliest. In May 7, 2014, the primary school students in the Lixia District at the compulsory education stage provided student clothes free of charge, and benefited more than 4.5 thousand primary and secondary school students.
at the first meeting of the eighteenth people's Congress of the Central District of Ji'nan in February this year, Han Yong Jun, the mayor of the Central District of the city, also made a commitment to the public. In 2017, the school uniforms fee and book fee of the primary and secondary school students were all exempted from 100%. At the same time, all the air purification equipment and fresh air system in primary and secondary schools and kindergartens in the city central district are fully equipped with 100%.
160 yuan per student in primary school, 200 yuan per student in junior high school, 240 yuan per student in high school and secondary vocational school. In order to allow more than 70 thousand primary and middle school students to wear free school uniforms, Zhangqiu will take out 13 million yuan each year. Bringing out so much money every year is not only a reflection of economic strength, but also a confidence for future development.
combing the data of the economic development of various districts in Ji'nan in 2016. The general public budget income in the lower, middle and Zhangqiu areas is 12 billion 770 million yuan, 9 billion 170 million yuan and 5 billion 90 million yuan respectively, and the first, second and fourth places in the whole city. The figures in the Zhangqiu District seem to be lower in the lower region and in the middle of the city, but to compare the data to the counties around the city, the number is really far ahead.
five years of school construction, five billion children at the gate of the prestigious school in education, Ji'nan has always been willing to invest. In order to solve the problem of "large class size", from 2015 to 2017, 74 new schools were planned in Ji'nan. The reason why
has taken so much strength is that the population growth and teaching facilities are limited. The large class size of Ji'nan has been very serious. According to the situation of primary schools, junior high schools and senior middle schools, the proportion of large classes in the city is 60%. The proportion of high school classes is as high as 86.9%, with the largest number of students reaching 82.
the Ji'nan municipal finance has allocated more than 500 million yuan in the two years of education fee to the city to solve the problem of large class size. On the whole, in the past 5 years, Ji'nan has invested 5 billion 229 million yuan in total school construction. Basically, there has been no difference in school running conditions between urban and rural compulsory education.
but if there is no fair educational resources to be the basis, the zero choice of school and school will probably result in the polarization between schools and schools. In fact, the education department in Ji'nan has begun to adjust before the implementation of the school. One of the important models is the grouping of schools.
according to statistics, the coverage rate of the compulsory education group in Ji'nan is 47%, and more and more schools have become "good schools at the door of the home".
education can also help promote economic development, whether it is free school uniforms, or group teaching, in fact, it is promoting the fairness of education. Chen Yinping, a member of the Ji'nan Municipal Committee of the CPPCC and director of Yuxiu primary school, said that some minor things in education will also bring great benefits. "Investing in people and investing in children is the most valuable investment." Wang Zhongwu, a sociology professor at Shan Da he college, believes that this investment brings the future of these children.
in Wang Zhongwu's view, compulsory education should be a typical public product, and its main provider is the government. This level of public goods also reflects the level of development of the government. Wang Zhongwu said that at this stage, the economic strength has increased, so the government is also increasing investment in education and people's livelihood. "Economic development is only a means, not the ultimate goal, it still needs to serve the development of society." Wang Zhongwu said. But in turn, the level of social development and the improvement of people's livelihood such as education can also promote Ji'nan's economic development.
with all levels of protection and sufficient input, education in Ji'nan is bound to take a new step.
