We will take measures such as the integration of secondary and higher vocational education, the connection between secondary and higher vocational education, the improvement of the examination methods and training methods for college upgrading, and the exploration and support of high-level undergraduate schools to participate in the reform of vocational education. We will speed up the exploration of the reform of the classification management and evaluation mechanism of colleges and universities, and continue to put the "double reduction" in a prominent position... The Ministry of Education held the 2023 National Education Work Conference on the 12th, and the Minister of Education Huai Jinpeng proposed the "key words" for talent training this year. "In the new year, we will make new and important progress in the fundamental task of establishing morality and cultivating people, speed up the establishment and improvement of a long-term mechanism to promote students' physical and mental health and all-round development, and cultivate new people of the era who are responsible for national rejuvenation in the new journey of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way," said Huai Jinpeng. The meeting proposed that we should continue to focus on "double reduction"; It is necessary to take measures such as the integration of secondary and higher vocational education, the integration of secondary and higher vocational education, the improvement of the examination methods and training methods for college upgrading, and the exploration and support of high-level undergraduate schools to participate in the reform of vocational education, so that students with early vocational education diversion can obtain the possibility of "backflow" through the system design of vertical integration and horizontal integration, so that students with different endowments can make multiple choices, lifelong learning, and diversified talents. In terms of higher education, it is necessary to fully connect with the national strategy and the needs of regional economic and social development, and comprehensively improve the quality of independent training of talents. We should speed up the exploration of the reform of the classified management and evaluation mechanism of colleges and universities, adjust the allocation of resources accordingly, and guide colleges and universities to overcome the problems of "large and complete" and "homogenization", so as to create characteristics and levels in different "races". In addition, the meeting requested to steadily promote the reform of the examination and enrollment system, thoroughly implement the "strong foundation plan", standardize and improve the enrollment of special types of examinations, and further play the role of scientific talent selection. The meeting also arranged to carry out nationwide youth reading activities and other matters from this year. (Xinhua News Agency)
