Recently, when talking about the development of vocational education, Hu Wei, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, counselor of the Shanghai Municipal Government, and executive deputy director of the Shanghai Zhonghua Vocational Education Association, said that vocational education has entered the fast lane, but all sectors of society, including the majority of students' parents, have great concerns about vocational education. The degree of recognition is not high, because vocational education has been stigmatized for a long time and regarded as inferior education.
The crux of the matter lies in the division of general occupations after the high school entrance examination, which is more considered to be divided according to grades. The anxiety caused by the society actually intensifies the competition in the examination, and also affects the implementation of the double reduction goal to a certain extent.
Hu Wei specifically mentioned that the need for horizontal integration is to realize the integrated development of general education, vocational education and academic education, and to build a diverse platform for the development of students.
At the same time, it is necessary to penetrate vertically, break the dead end, unblock the channels for further education in vocational education, and build a vocational education college entrance examination system based on ability and practical operation, so that more students can enter the vocational undergraduate degree through the vocational education college entrance examination.
He said that horizontal integration, vertical integration, and finally hope to change the ecological environment of vocational education, not only to meet the diversion of vocational education, employment, but also to further study.
Will this be able to alleviate the anxiety of parents and continuously improve the status of vocational education?
He believes that vocational education should adapt to economic development and the upgrading of industries.
Vocational education should cultivate more applied, practical and skilled talents, especially the artisans of China's rising power, support Chinese manufacturing, and create Chinese brands.
