What did you discover when you visited the special education school in Changde, Hunan?

"Children, tell me, the beautiful flowers..." In the classroom, Li Shengnan, a capable "post-90s" female teacher, spoke in sign language and spoke loudly to each child. The pronunciation of the word was shouted out, and the eyes looking at the students showed confidence and determination.

In the teaching building, independent comprehensive training rooms, interest classrooms, audiometry rooms, rehabilitation rooms and other facilities are fully functional; outside the teaching building, the school sports ground, sports and arts building, and student apartment building are clean and modern.

If you hadn’t heard and seen the six students in Li Shengnan’s class reading the text together with their mouths wide open but their words unclear and their voices low, you would never have believed that what you were seeing was a special education school. School.

The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to run special education well. This reflects the great importance that the party and the state attach to special education and protecting the rights of disabled people to receive education. A reporter recently visited a special education school in Changde City, Hunan Province and saw that this special education school strives to implement this school requirement. It has now formed preschool, intellectual education, children's education, and vocational education, and has achieved door-to-door teaching and integration inside and outside the school. etc. School running content and model.

“This is the best special school I have ever seen.” In 2015, after graduating from university, Li Shengnan came to work at Changde Special Education School and was immediately attracted by the brand-new teaching buildings and apartment-style student dormitories here. The advanced teaching facilities and equipment are "amazing".

In addition to daily rehabilitation classes and cultural classes, students here can also participate in roller skating, pottery, cooking and other interest classes after class. The whole school is full of vitality. At the same time, the unity and cooperation of a group of handsome, energetic and "post-90s" teachers like Li Shengnan convinced her to take up this unusual education job.

Changde Special Education School started recruiting students in 2011 and currently has 400 students enrolled. "Special education requires greater patience and true devotion." Long Mingzhong, secretary of the school party branch and principal, said that having a group of outstanding teachers with professional knowledge and full of love is the key to the happy growth of children.

There is a shortage of special education teachers in Hunan Province, so Changde City selects talents from all over the country to recruit talents for this school. Long Mingzhong said that when schools recruit teachers, they must not only look at their professional knowledge level, but also understand their family situation and growth environment, and comprehensively examine each applicant's personality and outlook on life to ensure that the selected people are qualified for this job. A special job.

Strict selection has created a team of high-quality and caring teachers. In 2014, Annie Zhong, a post-90s generation, graduated from Central China Normal University majoring in special education and became an educational teacher. She has been acquainted with some disabled children since she was a child, and she has always been upset because they were ridiculed. It has always been her ideal to do something for them. "When I graduated from high school, I heard from my father that a special education school was being built in the city, so I applied for the special education major that few people were willing to choose."

Over the past three years, Annie Zhong has put herself in the spotlight. The pursuit and love of special education are devoted to this group of special children.

A child named "Qiaoqiao" (pseudonym) under the care of Annie Zhong has an intellectual disability. When he entered a special school at the age of 6, he could not take care of himself and could only say "dad" and "mom". For more than two years, Teacher Zhong started teaching the children using the toilet, guiding the children to speak and correcting the children's pronunciation over and over again. Now Qiaoqiao can not only greet strangers confidently, but also learn social and civilized habits such as lining up and saluting.

Qiaoqiao’s grandmother said: “Although the teachers in the school are young, they all have great love, which allows us parents to see hope for our children.”

19-year-old “Designer” "Tongtong (pseudonym) has a listening and speaking impairment. After entering the special school for more than six years, under the teacher's step-by-step guidance, he not only learned sign language, but also learned to read and surf the Internet, and his talent for painting was also stimulated. In the student creative work display area on the first floor of the teaching building, Tongtong’s “Urban Design Drawing” is particularly eye-catching—the towering towers are unique in shape, the clear blue lake is embedded in the center of the city, and the rainbow-like overpass connects the east and west... …

Through the interpreter of the sign language teacher, he told reporters: “I want to stay in school and become a teacher in the future.

”

Compared with ordinary teachers, special education teachers have a more difficult job and invest more time and energy. Some people do not understand why these young people choose such a difficult job. Some even say that it is necessary to find a daughter-in-law. You cannot find teachers from special education schools.

“Some people now have misunderstandings about people with disabilities and special education teachers, mainly because they don’t know much about people with disabilities. "Zhong Anni said that every child in the special school is innocent and kind, and society cannot give up on them. She is willing to give what she has learned and love to the children. "I hope to give the children the wings of the wind, and hope that they can enjoy the beauty of life. . ”

Long Mingzhong said that the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to run special education well, which requires a team of teachers who understand special education and have special love. To this end, the school takes the initiative to create an independent, harmonious and progressive The cultural spirit guides young teachers to proactively pursue their own development, the development of students, and the development of the school. Through their own efforts, they can demonstrate a positive life status and influence more special children to enjoy the sunshine of education.

Changde Special Education School is an epitome of the rapid improvement of special education in Hunan Province. At present, the education funding for special education students in Hunan Province is three times the actual training cost of ordinary students at the same level, and is guaranteed by the sponsor or the same level of finance. Investment will be further increased, and special education curriculum reform will continue to deepen, so that special education can give more "broken-wing angels" the wings to pursue their dreams.
