Sima Mou said: "Boss, No. 33 Middle School Education Group, a subsidiary of Donglin Group, has built No. 33 Middle School into the most powerful middle school in the entire Donglin City through the power of capital, using the private middle school No. 33 Middle School as its platform.
, the current No. 43 Middle School is not only the best middle school in our Donglin City, but also one of the best middle schools in our Xi'er Province. This school has a one-stop talent training pattern from kindergarten to elementary school, junior high school, and high school.
Especially in terms of foreign language teaching, No. 43 Middle School is very good and has a large number of recommended places for Qingbei and many other prestigious schools.
Last year alone, more than 120 people were recommended to major in foreign languages at top domestic universities such as Qingbei University, reaching a guarantee rate of 20%.
Especially in terms of junior high schools, No. 43 Middle School is very good, ranking first in all. Parents of many division-level cadres in our municipal party committee and municipal government almost all send their children to No. 33 Middle School to study.
Through this platform, Donglin Group has extended their reach to all aspects of our Donglin City officialdom and is extremely influential.
In sharp contrast, we are facing the severe situation of public education in Donglin City.
I have statistics here. During the high school entrance examination last year, there were more than 330 candidates who scored 570 or above in No. 43 Middle School, accounting for about 23% of the city's share, while there were more than 40,090 candidates who scored 560 or above, accounting for this.
34% of the number of people with high scores. Boss, think about it. There are more than a dozen junior high schools in the city, and the number of candidates with high scores in No. 43 Middle School accounts for such a high share of 34%. How can parents not fight for their lives?
Send their children here?
However, boss, you also know that No. 43 Middle School is so popular. If you want to enter here, you must either have connections or money. Even having money may not work. So at this time, connections have become the most important factor.
And what we civil servants are best at are relationships and resources.
Therefore, if you count the identities of the parents behind the students of No. 43 Middle School, you will find that at least 60% of the parents are civil servants or people with strong connections in public institutions. This does not include the 20%
The above parents are businessmen and relatively influential, resourceful and successful people in society.
In other words, in No. 43 Middle School, the proportion of students from poor families does not exceed 20%, or even a little more than 10%.
Boss, do you know what this means?"
When Liu Haotian heard this, his expression changed immediately.
Liu Haotian frowned and said, "Is the teaching quality of our public middle schools in Donglin City so poor?"
Sima Mou nodded gently with a solemn expression: "Yes, the problem is so serious. In some middle schools, more than 1,000 people took the exam, but there were only thirty or forty candidates with a score of 570 or above. Except for No. 43 Middle School
In addition, the proportion of the middle schools with the best scores does not exceed 9%! The proportion of the middle schools with the worst scores is actually only 2%!"
Liu Haotian took a deep breath, clenched his fists and said, "So, the problems in our Donglin City's education system are very serious."
Sima Mou nodded lightly: "Yes, the problems in Donglin City's education system are far more serious than imagined. And this phenomenon is definitely not just a product of natural development, it definitely involves some rights and capital.
There is also a serious deviation in the ideology of civil servants in the education system. If this phenomenon does not change as soon as possible, as time goes by, the position of No. 43 Middle School in our Donglin City will become more and more stable and high.
There are more and more students taking the test, and the teaching quality of other public middle schools will become lower and lower.
Although there is nothing wrong with this phenomenon on the surface, in fact, when private capital dominates the education industry, it will bring about a series of serious social problems."
Liu Haotian nodded vigorously. Sima Mou was right. Education is the foundation of a century-old plan.
Liu Haotian thought for a while. He knew that he was just the secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. If he wanted to ask questions about the education system, he would not be justified. Therefore, Liu Haotian stood up without hesitation and came to the office of Municipal Party Committee Secretary Chen Songlin.
The materials Sima Mou investigated were placed in front of Chen Songlin.
After reading these materials, Chen Songlin's expression became solemn.
Although Chen Songlin did not think as deeply as Liu Haotian thought, he also knew that the decline in teaching quality in public middle schools was definitely not a good thing.
Chen Songlin stared at Liu Haotian and asked, "Liu Haotian, do you have any suggestions?"
Liu Haotian said: "Secretary Chen, I suggest that you take me directly into the education system to conduct in-depth research. We will look for problems during the research, and at the same time we will also look for solutions to the problems."
Chen Songlin knew very well that Liu Haotian must be holding back some bad water again, but Chen Songlin was very relieved about Liu Haotian. Although this young secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission did not follow the routine, he carried out his work with the people as the core.
Man, Chen Songlin quite admires young people like this.
Moreover, Chen Songlin also knows that when dealing with people like Liu Haotian, he must learn to use his strengths instead of being too harsh on him.
Thinking of this, Chen Songlin said with a smile: "Well, the issue of education is related to the country's century-old plan, so without hesitation, I immediately asked the municipal party committee office to call the Education Bureau, and we took the easy way and went directly to several middle schools in the city.
Go and investigate."
Liu Haotian nodded. From Chen Songlin's decision just now, he could tell that Chen Songlin was also a resolute person. At this moment, Liu Haotian suddenly realized that the leaders of the provincial party committee were still very smart in hiring people. With Qiu Dezhi's huge strength,
It is very necessary to send a municipal party secretary like Chen Songlin who has extremely strong endurance and decisive decision-making power.
Chen Songlin's patience ensured the overall stability of Donglin City, and Chen Songlin's decisive personality ensured that once he took control of the overall situation, Donglin City could move forward boldly.
The beauty of employing people lies in one intention.
Liu Haotian seemed to have understood something at this moment, but at the same time he seemed to have understood nothing. It was a very mysterious state.
Later, Liu Haotian followed Chen Songlin to conduct on-the-spot investigations into the actual conditions of the No. 41 Middle School, the Ninth Middle School and the No. 22 Middle School in Donglin City, and listened to the work reports of the principals and main school leaders of the three schools.
Huang Xinliang, director of the Municipal Education Bureau, followed the entire investigation and inspection.
Huang Xinliang was very uneasy because from the beginning of the investigation, neither Chen Songlin nor Liu Haotian had ever told him what the real purpose of the investigation was.
After the investigation of these three middle schools was completed, at Liu Haotian's suggestion, they went directly to No. 43 Middle School and listened to the report from the school leaders of No. 43 Middle School.
After all the surveys in the four schools were completed, it was already evening. Huang Xinliang proposed to have a meal first to express his condolences to the leaders. Chen Songlin waved his hand and refused, saying: "Go directly to the conference room of your Education Bureau and ask the main leaders of your bureau to
Everybody attend. We are going to hold an on-site research office seminar.”
Huang Xinliang suddenly became nervous, but facing the Municipal Party Committee Secretary and the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary coming hand in hand, he did not dare to neglect, and immediately went out to arrange the matter, and took the opportunity to make a call to Qiu Dezhi.
Qiu Dezhi said with a smile: "Old Huang, please keep your heart in mind, our education in Donglin City is still good. Even if Chen Songlin and Liu Haotian want to cause trouble for you, it shouldn't be that easy. After all,
Our No. 3 Middle School in Donglin City is the best in the field of junior high schools in the entire Xi'er Province. Liu Haotian can't find any fault with it at all."
Twenty minutes later, all the leaders of the Municipal Education Bureau arrived, and Liu Haotian, Chen Songlin, and Huang Xinliang walked into the conference room together.
After sitting down, Chen Songlin presided over the meeting. After saying a few words, he said: "Now, on behalf of me and the municipal party committee, I would like to ask Comrade Liu Haotian to have a good chat with your Education Bureau."
When Chen Songlin said these words, not only Huang Xinliang and the leaders of the Education Bureau were a little surprised, but even Liu Haotian was a little surprised.
However, Liu Haotian did not refuse. He looked directly at Huang Xinliang and said, "Director Huang, after conducting research on these schools, please share your own opinions first. What problems do you think exist in education in Donglin City?"
Huang Xinliang said with a smile: "Secretary Chen, Secretary Liu, I believe you should have heard the reports from the principals of various schools during the investigation. From what I learned about the actual situation, although our Donglin City ranks second in the province economically,
We are not in a leading position, but in terms of education, our Donglin City ranks third in the entire Xi'er Province. For this result, all our colleagues in the Donglin City Education Bureau and the school leaders of each school have made a lot of efforts.
,As far as I know, some school leaders, except during winter and summer vacations, focus on school almost every day and pay close attention to the quality of teaching..."
Afterwards, Huang Xinliang spoke eloquently for a full 20 minutes, boasting about his achievements in the education system, and then talked about the problems in the education system in an understatement, but they were just scratching the surface and disappeared.
.
After hearing this, Chen Songlin shook his head gently.
Now Chen Songlin finally understands why Liu Haotian was able to become a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Committee at such a young age, while Huang Xinliang, who is over 50 years old, can only be the director of the Education Bureau.
Huang Xinliang is too pragmatic in his work, especially when reporting to leaders, and he likes to show off his achievements too much. This is also what many civil servants are good at. Some people can turn a democratic life criticism meeting into an achievement bragging meeting.
This is indeed a skill, but this skill is used in the wrong place.
Although Liu Haotian is only 33 years old, he can clearly see the serious problems that Donglin City has in education, a century-old plan.
Liu Haotian did not interrupt Huang Xinliang's speech. After he finished speaking, Liu Haotian asked specifically: "Director Huang, do you think there are other problems in your education system besides the problems you mentioned?"
After Huang Xinliang recalled it for a while, he shook his head and said, "What I said should be more comprehensive. There are no other questions."
Liu Haotian nodded: "Then I would like to ask Director Huang, what do you think is the gap between the teaching quality of our Donglin City public middle school and the private middle school No. 43?"
Huang Xinliang suddenly started sweating on his forehead.
He didn't expect that Liu Haotian would ask the question from this perspective, which made it difficult for him to answer.
If he answers truthfully, Liu Haotian will definitely be followed by a series of questions. If he doesn't answer, Chen Songlin is sitting next to him. That is the secretary of the municipal party committee. Although he asked Liu Haotian to represent him, it does not mean that he will not speak.
No matter how weak he is, he is still the secretary of the municipal party committee and the top leader in the personnel field of Donglin City.
Liu Haotian saw Huang Xinliang was speechless for a long time, and said coldly: "What, Director Huang, is it difficult to answer my question?"
Wang Xinliang said quickly: "Secretary Liu, I think that whether it is a public middle school or a private middle school, they are all schools under the leadership of our Donglin City Education Bureau. As long as their comprehensive teaching quality improves, this will be of great benefit to our students and parents in Donglin City."
In other words, it is great news.
Judging from the feedback we have received from parents, most parents are quite positive about the work of our education bureau.”
Huang Xinliang is indeed a veteran. Although Liu Haotian's questions are very easy to answer, he avoids the important and takes the easy when answering. He always boasts about the achievements of the Education Bureau. The achievements of the Education Bureau are the achievements of him as the director.
This is definitely a self-praising professional.
Liu Haotian was really speechless after hearing this, his face darkened at that time, and he said coldly: "Director Huang, haven't you noticed that the number of students with scores above 570 in the public middle schools we inspected before is also
It’s not as large as the private middle school No. 43. Don’t you think this phenomenon is very abnormal?”
Huang Xinliang shook his head slightly: "I don't think this phenomenon is abnormal. The reason is very simple. Once a top teacher in a certain field appears in No. 41 Middle School, No. 22 Middle School or other middle schools, then this teacher will
He will soon be poached by No. 43 Middle School with a high salary. There is nothing our Education Bureau can do about this situation.
Because outstanding teachers with good teaching performance in public middle schools can indeed get higher wages than other teachers, but compared with private middle schools, the salary benefits are much worse. People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places, and more people are trapped in the net.
Private middle schools with many excellent teachers will naturally have higher teaching quality than public middle schools. This is something that our Education Bureau cannot do anything about. We can never raise their salaries to the same level as those in private middle schools in order to retain these teachers.
, if we do this, our Education Bureau will not be able to do its job.
I believe Secretary Liu should also know that we are not worried about the shortage but the inequality. We cannot affect the fairness and impartiality of the entire teaching system just because of a small number of teachers."
Liu Haotian said coldly: "So, in your opinion, the teaching quality of public middle schools will never catch up with private middle schools?"
