On the 30th, the Ministry of Education held a press conference to introduce the education and teaching work of primary and secondary schools in the fall semester and the supervision of the "double reduction" and "five management" supervision.
A reporter asked at the meeting that in the past summer vacation, the Ministry of Education introduced measures to support the exploration of summer custody services in various places. Did this summer custody achieve the expected effect and purpose?
If we continue to develop this service in the future, what needs to be improved?
In this regard, Lu Yugang pointed out that in July this year, in order to help solve the practical problems of students having nowhere to go and parental care during the summer vacation, the General Office of the Ministry of Education issued the "Notice on Supporting the Exploration and Development of Summer Custody Services" (hereinafter referred to as the "Notice" ), put forward the 20-character requirements, that is, the basic requirements of "school initiative, social participation, teacher voluntary, student voluntary, public welfare inclusive", guide and support qualified places and schools to carry out summer care services to help parents solve Some practical difficulties.
After the "Notice" was issued, it has received widespread attention from the society, and schools in all regions have also responded positively and acted actively.
In particular, some local education departments, in conjunction with the Communist Youth League, trade unions, women's federations, and communities, carefully organized this year's summer care services.
Lu Yugang said that this year's summer custody work has several characteristics:
One is the wide coverage.
Most provinces across the country have carried out summer custody services, and several provinces have carried out the work in the whole province, including Beijing, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Hainan and other places, which are deployed and promoted for the whole province.
In some places, pilot projects have been carried out in provincial capital cities and some prefecture-level cities, and most places have explored summer custody services for the first time this year.
The second is the active participation of teachers and students.
According to preliminary statistics,
there are about 3.026 million students participating in summer custody services this year.
During the summer vacation
, some parents may have arranged activities to take their children out in the summer, so some places have a higher participation rate, and some places have a lower participation rate.
339,000 teachers and volunteers participated in summer care services, of which 242,000 were teachers.
Third, the activities are rich in content.
In addition to guiding students to complete summer homework, the summer care services also set up a variety of activities and courses, including classic recitation, calligraphy, art, sports, and so on.
Some also use local resources, including social resources such as the Children's Palace, the Red Education Base, museums, cultural centers, and communities, to carry out trusteeship services.
Fourth, the social response has been better.
The summer care service helps families in real need to solve their worries about caring for their children, and has been generally welcomed and praised.
Lu Yugang said that this year's work is a preliminary exploration, and experience needs to be summed up.
In the next step, we must continue to advance in depth, and strive to do this work better and truly become a project to benefit the people.
