China News Service, December 30. This year, the winter vacation for colleges and universities is relatively early. Will the Spring Festival start earlier? Will it just hit the reworkers?
If some classmates' hometown becomes a medium-high risk area, can they still return to school?
In response, Wang Dengfeng, Director of the Office of the Leading Group for New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Work and Director of the Department of Sports, Health and Art Education, Wang Dengfeng, responded on the 30th.
On the 30th, the State Council’s Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism held a press conference.
Talking about the winter vacation time of colleges and universities, Wang Dengfeng pointed out that the school start time is arranged in an overall consideration, "it is the same as the vacation time."
Wang Dengfeng said that the local epidemic prevention and control requirements and the education and teaching practice of the school should be considered as a whole. It may be particularly emphasized when the school starts. It is necessary to consider the epidemic prevention and control requirements of the university and the source of students.
"If some classmates return to their hometown, their hometown is defined as a medium-high risk area. These classmates must first comply with the epidemic prevention and control requirements in their hometown, and they may not be allowed to come out locally. And the university location may also have related requirements in this regard. People from high-risk areas, including students, may also have to adopt corresponding arrangements and requirements for epidemic prevention and control after arriving in the locality. In this sense, colleges and universities may have to fully consider the epidemic prevention and control of their territories when they start school. Requirements and requirements for the prevention and control of the epidemic situation in the source of students, adopt the general principles of classified guidance and return to school in batches."
For migrant workers and migrant workers, the time it takes to return to their hometown to work and the opening time of colleges and universities may overlap. Regarding this point, Wang Dengfeng said that the Ministry of Education has clear requirements, and local education administrative departments must follow the epidemic situation in their territories. The requirements for prevention and control are to strive to start school with "shifting peaks" and "avoiding peaks". When arranging school opening times, universities must fully consider the requirements for epidemic prevention and control, and then the requirements for "shifting peaks" and "avoiding peaks". At this point, everyone needs to understand, whether colleges and universities have holidays or school start times, if in previous years it was determined by the school itself, but under the conditions of normal epidemic prevention and control, especially when unexpected situations occur, such as After sporadic cases or locally clustered cases appear, the division of risk levels may be adjusted. From an objective point of view, it will also affect college holidays or school start time."
Wang Dengfeng pointed out that, therefore, the dynamic adjustment, "even some colleges and universities have set a date for the start of school, but if other epidemics occur, they may make adjustments. This takes the overall planning of epidemic prevention and control requirements and education and teaching order. At the same time, we must also consider the epidemic prevention and control conditions of the territories and student sources, including transportation conditions, and some adjustments will be made. This is under the leadership of the territorial party committee and government, and the education administration department will make overall plans, and the universities will also according to their own circumstances. , And make arrangements for the start of school and holidays under the local coordination."
