What's the difference between an attached middle school and an ordinary high school?

High schools are divided into ordinary high schools and vocational high schools.

After junior high school, there is high school. The concept of high school actually includes ordinary high schools and vocational high schools. Some high schools are called provincial model high schools, and ordinary high schools are generally named as "provincial model high schools" after passing the evaluation of provincial departments.

The full name of vocational high school is vocational high school or senior vocational high school. Generally, junior high school graduates or students with equivalent academic qualifications are recruited. The academic system is generally three years, much like high school.

The teaching content of vocational high schools is somewhat different from that of ordinary high schools. The teaching contents of ordinary high schools are mainly Chinese, mathematics, foreign languages, physical chemistry, biology or political history and geography. That is, the "3+X" model, the content of vocational high school lectures is Chinese, mathematics, foreign languages and professional knowledge and skills.

Ordinary high schools focus on cultivating knowledge-based talents, while vocational high schools focus on cultivating technical talents. Nowadays, many people in the society have a "discriminatory" view of vocational high schools, thinking that vocational high schools are not as "good" as ordinary high schools. In fact, this view is not correct. Both ordinary high schools and vocational high schools train talents for the society, but the focus of training is different.

After graduating from ordinary high school, you can take the college entrance examination, and after graduating from vocational high school, you can also take similar exams. After passing the exam, you can also enter higher education institutions. Of course, the examination content of vocational high school will be different from that of ordinary college entrance examination.

There is basically no difference between passing the general college entrance examination and entering the university through the vocational college entrance examination. You learn the same knowledge and issue the same certificate.

When looking for a job after graduation, vocational high school students are sometimes even more popular than ordinary high school students, because vocational high school students have more advantages than ordinary high school students in professional skills. If you are competing for a professional position in a company, recruiters may prefer students from vocational high schools.

Now, the state is vigorously promoting vocational high schools and vocational universities. In other words, there will be more high schools and universities with professional skills in China, and the country needs a large number of talents with certain professional skills.
