The Ministry of Education released 20 ‘strict prohibitions’ to regulate primary and secondary schools.黄刚: Yes, I did. This time it’s quite strict, mainly to ensure educational fairness and students’ well-being, like banning excessive homework and frequent exams.陈花: I really support this. Some schools focus only on scores, putting too much pressure on students, even taking away their rest time.黄刚: Right, and another key point is banning ranking of schools and teachers based on scores. It’s actually about ‘cooling down’ the education system.陈花: But will it be hard to implement? Some places still rely heavily on admission rates.黄刚: True, good policies also need good execution. The document also stresses no corporal punishment and no paid tutoring, which are long-standing issues.陈花: School bullying and food safety are also included, which shows it’s not just about academics but also daily life and safety.黄刚: You could say these 20 rules draw a ‘red line’ for schools that cannot be crossed. Education is not only about teaching knowledge, but also about nurturing people.陈花: Yes. As a teacher, I’m also reflecting that we shouldn’t focus only on grades, but also on whether students are happy and growing healthily.黄刚: Well said. If education only pursues scores, it may ‘put the cart before the horse.’ This policy aims to correct that problem.
