Free accommodation in the county school, no need to worry about paying tuition fees, food subsidies and delicious meals... For guligamary, a girl from the mountains of the Pamir Plateau, "horseback primary school" and tent primary school have become history, and the "dream of reading" with high-quality education has become a reality. "The quality of education has been continuously improved, achieving full coverage of schooling for school-age children and adolescents, and full coverage of teaching in the national common language. The whole region has passed the basic balanced assessment of national compulsory education. The gross enrollment rate of preschool education, the consolidation rate of nine-year compulsory education, and the gross enrollment rate of high school have reached 98.19%, 95.69%, and 98.87% respectively." In the work report of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Government in 2021, the educational development report card is bright. In recent years, Xinjiang has always adhered to the people-centered development idea, adhered to the principle of public welfare in education, took education equity as the basic education policy, continued to improve school running conditions, comprehensively promoted the popularization and higher quality development of all kinds of education at all levels, guaranteed the right of children of all ethnic groups to receive education according to law, promoted the healthy growth of children, and let the sunshine of education equity spread all over the north and south of Tianshan Mountain. Urban and rural education has taken on a new look When the first ray of sunshine in the morning fell on the land of Southern Xinjiang, bursts of laughter came from the central kindergarten in naizeerbag Town, Kashgar City, Kashgar Prefecture, Xinjiang. This rural kindergarten, which covers an area of nearly 10000 square meters, looks no different from urban Kindergartens: spacious and bright classrooms, soft and comfortable plastic playground, various toys, and well-equipped Chinese Studies Museum, painting Museum, art museum and Music Museum. "Sending children to kindergartens is very easy and labor-saving." Buzulagu Kadir couldn't help praising the kindergarten in front of his home. "It's free to enter the kindergarten. He also provides two meals and a little free of charge. After two years in the kindergarten, the child has become polite and hygienic, and has mastered a lot of knowledge." In southern Xinjiang, like buzulagu Kadir, more and more farmers and herdsmen send school-age children to kindergartens. Not only preschool education. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party committee and government of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region have insisted on giving priority to the development of education as the largest livelihood project, continued to increase investment, optimized the talent training mode, improved the quality of running schools, and promoted the high-quality and diversified development of all kinds of education at all levels. It is understood that the number of students in schools at all levels in Xinjiang will increase from 4.893 million in 2015 to 6.497 million in 2020. Among them, the number of ethnic minority students in school increased from 3.28 million to 4.845 million, accounting for 74.57% from 67.04%. The gross enrollment rate of preschool education, the consolidation rate of nine-year compulsory education, the gross enrollment rate of high school education and the gross enrollment rate of higher education in the district have all increased significantly. From 2016 to 2020, Xinjiang's general public budget expenditure on education totaled 397.264 billion yuan. In 2020, it will reach 90.8 billion yuan, accounting for 16.96%, an increase of 24.35 billion yuan over 2016, with an average annual growth rate of 8.12%. "Ensuring basic needs", "making up for weaknesses" and "promoting fairness" have been effectively implemented. Focusing on "running education to the satisfaction of the people", the development of education in Xinjiang has entered the best and fastest period since the reform and opening up, laying a solid foundation for helping Xinjiang's social stability and long-term stability, and providing a strong intellectual support and talent guarantee for promoting the region's economic and social development. Not letting a student drop out of school because of financial difficulties at home "Good national policies have solved the problem of children going to college." In September last year, wumaierjiang turson, a herdsman in Zepu County, Kashgar Prefecture, looked sad when he received his youngest son's university admission notice. "It's difficult to provide two college students at home at the same time.". However, to his surprise, he successfully applied for a loan of 8000 yuan from the Education Bureau of Zepu county. After the child entered the school, the head teacher helped to apply for the subsidy of living expenses for work study posts, and gave the national financial aid at the same time. This has greatly reduced the economic pressure on the family. Student financial aid is an important project to protect the people's livelihood and warm the hearts of the people. Since 2007, the state and Xinjiang have established a student aid policy system with the government as the leading role and the active participation of schools and society, covering pre-school education to graduate education, and achieved "three full coverage", that is, full coverage of all school stages, full coverage of public and private schools, and full coverage of students with financial difficulties in their families. At the same time, in the pre-school stage, the security funds for school-age children have been expanded from two years to three years; In the stage of compulsory education, Xinjiang has achieved full coverage of financial aid for students from economically disadvantaged families; In the high school stage, the financial aid for students from economically disadvantaged families in the four prefectures of Southern Xinjiang has been fully covered; In the stage of higher education, the "three no worries" for students with financial difficulties have been realized, that is, no worries before entering school, no worries when entering school, and no worries after entering school. In terms of system, it is guaranteed that "no student will be allowed to drop out of school due to financial difficulties of his family". During the "13th five year plan" period, Xinjiang allocated a total of 31.172 billion yuan of student aid funds at all levels and of all types, benefiting 26.1835 million students. In 2021, a total of 8.299 billion yuan will be allocated to students of all levels and types, benefiting 6.7498 million students. Now, walking north and south of Tianshan Mountain and on both sides of Tahe River, the school has become the most beautiful scenery in various places. Bright and clean classrooms, playground paved with plastic track, multimedia teaching... Happy smiling faces reflect the vivid practice of education benefiting people's livelihood. Meet students' diversified learning and growth needs In the village school children's palace of Zexu central school, Huiyuan Town, Huocheng County, Ili Prefecture, the reporter saw that the students were practicing calligraphy and playing musical instruments under the guidance of their teachers. "I come here every day after school to study. The Hulusi club is very meaningful. My friends and I like it very much." Nurshati nurmai, a student of Zexu Central School in Huiyuan Town, said happily. Zexu Central School in Huiyuan town has a long history of running a school. Since the opening of the children's palace, a rural school, in 2014, the school has set up 31 associations such as calligraphy, musical instruments, paper cutting and dance to meet the diverse learning and growth needs of students. "Let moral education, hobbies and folk culture be integrated into the activities, and make the rural children's palace a happy paradise for children." Yuan Xinlong, deputy secretary of the Party branch and President of Zexu Central School in Huiyuan Town, pointed out. In southern Xinjiang, modern education parks have sprung up. In the Derun Education Park of Hotan City, a library with 200000 books and a capacity of 300 students at the same time has become a popular "clock in place" for students. "There are all kinds of books we want to read. The students come to read in groups and exchange their feelings after reading." Abdukreme Abulimiti, a student of Hotan No. 5 middle school, said that after the school moved into Derun education park last year, the software and hardware facilities have been greatly improved. In addition to the library, the school is also equipped with multi-functional classrooms, calligraphy classrooms and art classrooms. Community teachers have been invited to open a variety of characteristic courses, which has greatly enriched extracurricular life. The Hotan Derun Education Park, which was put into use in August 2021, covers a total area of 421 mu, covering the whole school period from kindergarten to high school, providing a modern learning environment for more than 8000 children. In recent years, Hotan has invested 2.85 billion yuan to build 9 education parks in Hotan City, Moyu County, Pishan County, Yutian County, etc., providing 78000 degrees to meet the needs of children and students. Let every child receive a good education is the foothold of the balanced development of education. From "learning" to "learning", Xinjiang education is striving to write an era answer sheet that satisfies the people and makes everyone brilliant. (outlook new era)
