How to win the tough battle of balanced bottom of compulsory education?

A few days ago, the reporter walked into Hexi Primary School in Tacheng Township, Nanchang County, Jiangxi Province. Under the five-star red flag flying high, the red 400-meter standard plastic track encloses the green football field lawn, and there are children running and jumping everywhere. Next to the playground, basketball stands and table tennis tables are arranged in an orderly manner, which is particularly eye-catching against the blue sky and sunshine. In the tall and brand-new teaching building, the sound of reading came from time to time. The villagers took the children back to Hexi Primary School from the private boarding primary school in the county. He said: "children can enjoy a quality education at home, and the family can be happily reunited and enjoy the growing time."

The change of Hexi primary school is a microcosm of the balanced development of compulsory education in Jiangxi Province.

Use the baton of evaluation to influence the government to perform its duties.

In the county of 20 15, 1 1; 20 16, 42 counties; 2017,28 counties-this is the report card of the state supervising the balanced development of compulsory education in Jiangxi province. At present, 92 counties (cities, districts) in the province have achieved balanced development, and the qualified rate is 82. 1%, which is basically the same as the national overall progress.

For Jiangxi, where underdevelopment is still the main contradiction, the basic situation and the greatest reality, it is not easy for compulsory education to achieve such results in the development of urban-rural integration.

The Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government have incorporated the balanced development of compulsory education into the educational planning outline and the overall plan for economic and social development. Taking the establishment of a supervision and assessment mechanism for leading party and government cadres in counties (cities, districts) to perform their educational duties as a breakthrough, we should make full use of the "baton" of cadre assessment and seize the "bull nose" of local party committees and governments to perform their educational duties.

Jiangxi Poverty Alleviation Office included the balanced development of compulsory education in counties (cities, districts) into the annual performance appraisal. At present, the supervision and evaluation of the balanced development of compulsory education has become a necessary condition for poverty alleviation in counties (cities, districts). If the balanced development of local compulsory education fails to pass the acceptance, the poverty alleviation work will also be "rejected by one vote".

The education supervision and evaluation work has been carried out by the education department alone in the past, and now it has been carried out jointly with the organization department, from only assessing the county-level government to assessing the party and government leaders, and taking the evaluation results as an important basis for the allocation of funds for education projects and the promotion and appointment of cadres, which has effectively promoted the initiative of the county-level party committees and governments in education development and implemented the strategic position of giving priority to education development.

In order to solve the last mile problem of policy implementation, Jiangxi Province has established the mechanism of "three governors and two orders" to guide the whole process of promoting the balanced development of compulsory education in various places and to ask for the effect in all directions.

"Three Supervisors", that is, the Education Steering Committee of Jiangxi Provincial Government organized and carried out great supervision on the balanced development of compulsory education in cities and counties; The Provincial Department of Education organizes experts to supervise the counties (cities, districts) that declare that the development of provincial compulsory education is basically balanced; "Looking back" on the rectification of problems in counties (cities, districts) with outstanding problems in provincial supervision and evaluation. "Two orders", that is, after each inspection and supervision, each county issues a list of problems and a list of rectification responsibilities, and the rectification task is managed by "sales number".

"Blanket" financial investment to ensure the balance of education

The pressure is passed step by step, and the responsibility is implemented step by step. The balanced development of compulsory education in all parts of the province has risen to the "number one" project of the party and government.

In 20 16, the Jiangxi provincial government issued opinions, formulated a "package plan" for provincial financial compulsory education investment, increased the transfer payment, and awarded 3 million yuan and 2 million yuan to counties (cities, districts) that passed the national recognition in advance and on schedule. For two consecutive years, Jiangxi provincial finance allocated 2.6 billion yuan of special funds for the balanced development of urban and rural compulsory education, which, together with the county (city, district) finance itself, provided sufficient guarantee for education investment. The allocation of funds is linked to the results of supervision and evaluation, so as to avoid "whipping the fast cattle" and realize "rewarding the excellent and punishing the poor".

Since 20 14, Jiangxi 100 counties (cities, districts) and 12 development zones have invested a total of 76.37 billion yuan to promote the balanced development of compulsory education, with 496 new schools built, 6 107 schools rebuilt and expanded, 685,000 new degrees added and new school buildings built.

"Taking the opportunity of supervision and evaluation, we will promote all localities to optimize the development environment of' the party attaches importance to education first and politics is based on promoting education', implement the educational reform concept of' * * * enjoying the development of people's livelihood', and strive to achieve the goal of giving priority to the development of education and promoting the integrated development of urban and rural compulsory education proposed in the report of the 19th National Congress." Huang Xiaohua, secretary of Jiangxi Education Working Committee, said.

Win the battle at the bottom

In the process of promoting the balanced development of compulsory education, Jiangxi adheres to the people-oriented principle, allowing special groups to receive special care and solving special difficulties.

Wanan county issued the Implementation Plan of Migrant Children's Education in the Whole City to realize "zero obstacles" for migrant children's education. Anyi County set up the "Green Lake Scholarship" to help poor students 10 years, and social assistance became a common practice. Anyuan County implements a centralized education system for orphans free of charge, and provides 700 yuan for 233 orphans every month. Xingguo County has implemented the "Care Project for the Poor Students of the Red Army Descendants", and more than 800 poor students of the Red Army descendants in the county have realized free study and life. Xiangdong district City, Pingxiang City has set up a file and set up a card for all the left-behind children in the whole district from 4/KLOC to 0/99, established more than 60 "watch houses" and organized more than 200 caring activities.

In terms of ensuring students' equal right to education, Jiangxi Province has built a set of caring system: for students from poor families, it has fully implemented various subsidy policies, timely and fully distributed living allowances for boarding students with financial difficulties, and concentrated on contiguous areas with special difficulties 17 counties (cities) to arrange more than 600 million yuan each year to provide nutritional meal subsidies for more than 840,000 rural primary and secondary school students in more than 3,000 schools; All counties (cities, districts) with a population of over 300,000 have established special education schools for disabled children and adolescents.

Education is always a topic that needs attention.
