According to arrangements, primary and secondary schools and vocational schools in Xinjiang will also start on March 23.

It is understood that Xinjiang in the early stage has required comprehensive surveys of materials, masks, temperature detection equipment, hand sanitizer, disinfectant, alcohol and other materials in schools at all levels in the region, and coordinated related enterprises in Xinjiang to step up production. So far, the first batch of protective materials for teachers and students has been prepared.

On the 16th, there are also senior and junior students from Guizhou Province.

After the start of the school, there are no special circumstances during the school period, and students must not leave the school without approval.

For the beginning of primary and secondary schools, the Ministry of Education held a meeting to clarify that it is necessary to compact the territorial responsibility, strengthen the coordination of provincial education departments, and focus on counties.

Qinghai Province has adjusted major public health emergencies from Grade III to Grade IV on March 6. response. In addition, Guizhou, Xinjiang, Yunnan and other places have also adjusted the secondary response to the tertiary response.

How to ensure campus epidemic prevention and control?

In late February, the State Council ’s Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism issued a “Technical Plan for the Prevention and Control of New Crown Pneumonia in Primary and Secondary Schools”, which proposes 25 technical requirements for primary and secondary schools before, after, and during emergencies.

The reporter learned from interviews in various places that primary and secondary schools that have already started and are preparing to start school all around the country are actively preparing for the preparation of epidemic prevention materials, formulation of peak-to-peak start plans, and joint emergency drills between schools and local CDCs.

Prior to the start of school, the focus is on pre-planning epidemic prevention and ensuring material supply. The reporter saw in the nine-year consistent school in Shaling, Yuhong District, Shenyang City, that the school has set up a number of "temperature measurement units", medicine boxes, disinfectants, and hand soap. Noticeable places such as the bulletin board posted "Campus Epidemic Prevention Guide", "Seven-Step Handwashing Method", and "Effect Reporting Flowchart". Principal Shang Deyi introduced that the school has set up a canteen meal sharing system, and eats in batches at different times to ensure that the meal interval is more than one meter.

In terms of anti-epidemic materials, various parties from various places have raised funds to ensure it. In Guizhou Province, basic protection is provided by the provincial level. The city (state) makes supplementary adjustments according to the situation, encourages social donations and parents to bring their own masks; in the first week of school, each student is guaranteed 5 masks. Xinjiang has also equipped epidemic prevention and control materials for schools everywhere, and free masks for students will be in place in the past two days.

The reporter learned from the Guiyang Education Bureau that there are currently 316 schools in Guiyang, and more than 800,000 masks have been raised at the provincial and municipal levels, which can guarantee the use of one mask per day for teachers and students of these schools for half a month. . At the same time, Guiyang City also collects handheld thermometers, killing supplies, etc. through multiple channels to try to reserve sufficient supplies for school resumption.

The daily prevention and control measures on the campus after the school start have been refined into systems such as school start at wrong peaks and school attendance at wrong times.

The reporter learned that most places identified the peak shifts of the beginning of school as four batches: the first batch of the third and third grades; the second batch of the first, second and third grades; the third batch of the first grades Times; the fourth batch of kindergartens. For students who are still observing in the quarantine zone, the specific plan is also being further improved.

In addition, each school is also going to go to school at the wrong time. For example, a middle school in Xuzhou, Jiangsu, divides the daily arrival time into four sections, arrives at 7 o'clock in the ninth grade, and delays the other grades by 15 minutes. After school hours also take the form of a similar shifted peak.

Guizhou City Education Bureau Director Zhou Jin said: "The focus will be on the class as a unit to organize students to go to school in wrong peaks. Even for students entering the toilet, in principle, the number of centralized toilets should be properly controlled to prevent students from gathering in the toilet."

"Efforts should be made to ensure that no epidemic situation occurs after teachers and students return to school." Zhou Jin said.

What will happen if an emergency occurs?

The Jiangsu Provincial Department of Education has specially formulated a flow chart for the admission of teachers and students of elementary and secondary schools. The method of “reading a picture” is convenient for school operations, and it also includes the process of handling emergencies.

On March 11, relevant teachers, employees and staff of the Epidemic Prevention Department of Nanjing Xuanwu Senior Middle School conducted a "first day of school" simulation emergency drill, and designed morning inspections, lunch inspections, students who found fever or vomiting, and eliminated them after school. Kill multiple scenes. "Familiarize yourself with the process by participating in the exercise. Do more stress tests to find problems and improve measures as soon as possible," said principal Zhang Hua.

How to remedy the lost time?

Reporters interviewed in various places learned that the education department is taking multiple measures to reduce the impact of delayed schooling.

Beginning in March, many schools have conducted preparatory teaching through online courses. "Although the effect of online courses is definitely not as good as offline teaching and may be refurbished, you can still lay a certain foundation. After the start of the school, you will conduct a thorough evaluation of the learning at this stage, and properly speed up the teaching progress on the basis of good course connection. "Mr. Yang, the head teacher of the 39th Middle School in Nanjing, said.

The person in charge of Urumqi No. 1 Middle School proposed that we should pay attention to students who fail to participate in online learning and students with academic difficulties, and develop a counselling plan in accordance with the "one person, one policy" requirement, and take assistance measures to ensure that each student can keep up Teaching progress.

Other schools are trying to "catch up" by replanning the curriculum. Yao Xunqi, principal of the secondary school affiliated to South China Normal University, introduced that the correction was re-planning the curriculum in accordance with the time of return to school. For example, some subject knowledge courses should be carried out before the start of the school, and education, practice courses such as physical education, aesthetic education, and labor education should be transformed into a form suitable for home study, and less class time will be occupied after the start of the school.

Many front-line teachers suggested that they should focus on resuming the lesson after the start of school, optimize management, and improve teaching efficiency. Xu Yuping, the second junior middle school in Hunnan District, Shenyang, suggested that some public courses, activities of teaching and research groups, and collective lesson preparation can be appropriately reduced in number or changed to video.

Regarding the question of whether to reduce the summer vacation, the heads of education departments in various places said that they should adapt to local conditions and schools.

"The premise is to ensure that the total class time does not decrease and that the class can be adjusted on the appropriate weekends. What is more important is to improve the classroom efficiency and ensure that the teaching tasks are completed with high quality." Said Zou Lianke, director of the Education Department of Guizhou Province. (Reporters Jiang Fang, Zheng Tianhong, Wang Ying, Luo Fei, Fu Xiaobo)
