"Model of the times" Chen Liqun: help more children receive better education
2021-12-30
An education expert enjoying the special allowance of the State Council and the former principal of Xuejun middle school, a first-class key middle school in Zhejiang Province, was employed as the principal of Guizhou Taijiang ethnic middle school in his 60s. He didn't get a penny and supported poverty alleviation and education for four years. What's more unexpected is that after stepping down as president in August 2020, he could have lived a healthy life, but he still couldn't let go of the children in Guizhou. He ran between Hangzhou and Taijiang 25 times in more than a year to continue his educational feelings! He is the "model of the times" Chen Liqun, a man born for education. He only does one thing in his life - be a good man and teach books well. In his monograph "I am the headmaster in Miao township", we found his original intention to help more children receive better education, so that poverty alleviation through education can completely "cut off" the intergenerational transmission of poverty. "Teach them to fish, leaving a team of teachers who can't take them away" In August this year, Chen Liqun finally breathed a sigh of relief. The good news of the college entrance examination came from Taijiang nationality middle school: there were 698 students above the second line, including 263 above the first line. For the first time, a student was admitted to Tsinghua University. "This year's college entrance examination results are on a par with when I was headmaster." Chen Liqun said happily, "this fully confirms that the spirit of teachers, the self-motivated spirit of students and the combat effectiveness of the leading group of Taijiang nationality middle school have been significantly improved." "All assistance is always temporary, and all education support is always over. The key is to enhance the hematopoietic function of the sustainable development of education in poor areas." This is his view on supporting education. How to change "blood transfusion" into "hematopoiesis"? How can the effect of temporary school management be maintained for a long time? He has long included the training of local backbone teachers in his plan. With his contribution and promotion, Taijiang ethnic middle school implemented the action plan for the training of young teachers, launched the training plans of "small lotus project", "Blue Project" and "famous teacher project" according to different teachers, and established the teaching method of "different classes". He personally funded the establishment of a scholarship in Taijiang County Ethnic Middle School, including three awards: love award, Responsibility Award and talent cultivation award, and rewarded 9 excellent teachers every year. The scholarships have been distributed for five times, totaling 225000 yuan. He also used his own resources and contacts to establish a "going out" training system and sent teachers to key middle schools in Hangzhou Although he left the post of president, he still served as the education consultant of Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture, the general education consultant of Taijiang county and the honorary president of Taijiang ethnic middle school. Using the platform of "Chen Liqun's famous headmaster pilot studio" established by Guizhou Provincial Department of education, he taught voluntarily, took the initiative to serve as a mentor for principals of junior middle schools and primary schools in Taijiang County, and went to all parts of Guizhou to give reports and lectures. More than 10000 principals and teachers received training. In the second half of 2021, Guizhou Provincial Department of Education launched the "action plan for improving the quality of basic education in ethnic minority areas of Guizhou Province", inviting him to serve as the vice chairman of the expert committee. So far, he has led the expert team to more than 30 schools in Weining, Wangmo, Ceheng, Shibing, Huangping, Yinjiang and other counties, most of which are rural schools. Every time he went to a county, he gave lectures to the headmaster and vice headmaster of the whole county to dissect the successful cases of Taijiang nationality middle school. Every time he went to a school, he carefully investigated and gave suggestions for improvement after diagnosis. "Give the child a little light and he will give you a sky" Before the outgoing president left Taijiang, Chen Liqun received a special "gift" from Taijiang ethnic middle school - a list of 38 poor students who were admitted to university. As soon as he returned to Hangzhou, he ran around and contacted 38 poor students to implement their college expenses one by one. Speaking of this, he especially thanked the caring people who are enthusiastic about helping the poor and the public in Hangzhou. With their enthusiastic help, the problem of children's school expenses was quickly solved. When people are in trouble, they may only need one chance. Chen Liqun was born in rural areas and dropped out of school several times. He chose to support education in order to let more people receive better education. "Do ordinary things with an ordinary mind. After I came to Taijiang, the school's college entrance examination scores improved year after year, which shows that Miao children are smart. What they need is an opportunity to receive a better education." Chen Liqun said. There are more than 3000 students in Taijiang ethnic middle school, and more than one third of the students come from poor families with file and card. "When you encounter difficulties in life, come to me." This is Chen Liqun's promise to the students. During his tenure as president, he funded more than 60 students in his own name, with a cumulative subsidy of more than 100000 yuan. "Dear headmaster: Thank you for your help. You are like a lamp, illuminating my heart and giving my life a glimmer of brilliance..." Chen Liqun has a thick stack of letters written to him by students. Every letter is neatly written, with real feelings flowing between the lines. "Whether teachers love their students or not, they can feel it." Chen Liqun said. Over the past five years, he has visited more than 300 poor families to understand the living conditions of children from poor families and give appropriate subsidies. Not only that, he also mobilized friends from Hangzhou to visit their homes. Last summer vacation, the son of an entrepreneur friend followed him to his home in Taijiang and paid a total of more than 500000 condolences. In 2001, he founded the first Hongzhi class in Zhejiang Province in Hangzhou Changhe senior high school. Inspired by the spirit of Hongzhi, students established the "Hongzhi student fund of Taijiang nationality middle school", which has funded more than 800000 yuan. "Why did a poor family give birth to a noble son? Many times it depends on someone pulling at the critical moment. I can't do anything less. All I can do is hold one by one." Chen Liqun said. "Give the child a little light and he will give you a sky." In an article published in the people's education magazine, Chen Liqun wrote, "if school education is a kind of awakening and discovery, how I wish I were a Panhu. The brave dragon dog in the Miao myth uses a keen sense of smell to find the shining points on children, and uses an insatiable bark to awaken the inner potential of every child..." (outlook new era)
