What does it mean for graduates of public-funded normal schools to "fulfill their posts"

　　How to do a good job in the employment of 2023 graduates of public-funded normal universities directly under the Ministry of Education?

Recently, the Ministry of Education issued a notice pointing out that the provincial education administrative departments should continue to organize special recruitment activities for public-funded normal students, and ensure that public-funded normal students who meet the employment conditions have staff and posts by giving priority to the use of vacant staff, and all implement the teaching schools. , It is strictly forbidden to "make up but not make up".

Before the end of May 2023, ensure that 90% of the public-funded normal students will choose the teaching school through two-way selection.

　　"All posts will be implemented", this statement in the Ministry of Education notice is eye-catching.

This is a public commitment and active pressure.

Affected by factors such as the impact of the epidemic, college graduates are indeed under greater pressure in employment, so that people often hear people lamenting that they have encountered the "hardest employment season".

In this context, the graduates of public-funded normal universities directly under the Ministry of Education can receive special attention, which reflects the country's emphasis on teacher education.

　　Some people may ask: before the end of May 2023, 90% of the public-funded normal students will be guaranteed to be taught in schools through two-way selection, what about the remaining 10%?

In fact, the relevant notice makes it very clear that the public-funded normal students who have not signed a contract by the end of June 2023 will have their files and household registration transferred to the provincial education administrative department where the student is located, and the provincial education administrative department will coordinate with relevant departments. Primary and secondary schools in areas where there is a shortage of teachers are teaching, and all public-funded normal students must be assigned to the teaching school before leaving school.

In other words, their employment also has a future, and everyone will find a place to use it.

　　A little review shows that doing a good job in the employment of public-funded teacher graduates is not accidental, nor is it a unique system design this year, but an institutional arrangement that has been implemented for many years.

As early as 2018, the "Notice of the General Office of the State Council on Forwarding the Implementation Measures for the Public Fund Education of Normal University Students Directly under the Ministry of Education" pointed out that all localities should strengthen organizational leadership and system guarantees, and follow the establishment of "dynamic adjustment, turnover use" According to the relevant requirements of the province's overall planning, adjustment and use system, the establishment of public-funded normal students to teach in primary and secondary schools should be properly resolved within the current total number of establishments through methods such as giving priority to the use of vacant establishments.

　　In the next few years, relevant departments successively issued notices, requiring them to do a good job in the employment of graduates of public-funded normal schools.

　　To treat public-funded normal graduates well is to treat grassroots education well.

According to reports, these public-funded normal students come from six normal universities directly under the Ministry of Education.

According to the agreement, after graduation, they usually return to teach in primary and secondary schools in the province where the students came from.

In addition, "public-funded normal students who work in urban schools should teach and serve in rural compulsory education schools for at least one year." This means that quite a few of them have to go to the grassroots.

As graduates of the Ministry of Normal University who have received good teacher education, they integrate what they have learned into grassroots education, and the positive significance it brings is self-evident.

　　What is lacking most in primary education?

Some people in the industry said frankly that what is most lacking is excellent teachers.

Efforts should be made to let every child enjoy the opportunity to receive education, especially to allow rural children to enjoy a more equitable education, so that they can better develop themselves and contribute to society.

For those talented graduates of public-funded normal schools, they take responsibility to take root in the grassroots and pass on knowledge to rural children. This will not only brighten the children's future, but also continuously inject vitality into the grassroots education ecology, thus forming a virtuous circle.

　　In addition, the state treats the graduates of public-funded normal schools well, arranges them to be employed and ensures that they will be assigned to posts, which can also enhance the sense of pride and identity of normal students who study in normal schools and become teachers after graduation, and further stimulate the sense of mission of normal students as state-funded teachers. and a sense of honor, thereby inspiring more young talents to devote themselves to teacher education.

　　Of course, being kind to graduates of public-funded normal schools is not only reflected in the "coverage" of employment, but also in the implementation of remuneration.

For example, efforts should be made to provide necessary working and living conditions for public-funded normal students to teach in rural areas, such as office space and turnover dormitories; another example, on-the-job training for public-funded normal students after fulfilling their contract to teach can be included in the national training plan and the provincial training plan.

All of these are not only conducive to their further growth, but also conducive to their proper professional dignity.

　　Educational equity is an important basis for social equity. If more excellent teachers are able to "go on, stay, and teach well," and make the grassroots a broad stage for graduates of free normal schools to display their talents, educational equity will be even more promising.
