Today at 12 noon, about 30 parents of candidates went to sit-in and demonstrate outside the provincial government. It was obvious that they had been contacted in advance.
The parents of these sit-in candidates held up a banner that read: The college entrance examination admissions work in Jiangnan Province is completely corrupt! Also: We want a fair and just admission policy!
As a result, it immediately attracted many citizens to watch, and reporters from the provincial TV station and major newspapers came.
The Provincial Government Office called me, but I found that my mobile phone had no signal! Then I called Secretary Leng. Secretary Leng also called me, but the result was the same. Then he contacted me
Director Liang.
Fortunately, Governor He happened to be in the office at the time, and she immediately took measures: asking the candidates' parents to nominate ten representatives to enter the provincial government for a discussion, and at the same time asked other sit-in participants to disperse immediately.
Of course, Director Liang and Secretary Leng also participated in the discussion. The final result of the discussion was: Governor He’s words made the representatives of the candidates’ parents express their understanding——
Parents of candidates mainly have the following opinions: Jiangnan Province’s college entrance examination admissions are not handled in accordance with national policies, and everything is centered on acquaintances and relationships; special recruitment is actually a privilege enjoyed by certain special relationships; this year’s increase in enrollment plans for prestigious schools is for power and wealth.
Another opportunity to enjoy privileges provided by the human class. And so on.
Parents were very excited when talking about these issues and gave many examples.
Governor He asked Director Liang to first explain the opinions of the parents of the students one by one.
Director Liang has been engaged in admissions work for a long time and is quite familiar with admissions policies. Therefore, he has sufficient policy basis for explaining these issues. However, policy basis is one thing, while rationality is another matter. Regardless of
How to describe the unreasonableness and unfairness of the issues raised by the candidates’ parents? The unfair situation is a fact, so Director Liang’s explanation also made people feel far-fetched.
Many things are like this. In fact, our people are very tolerant. In the past, everyone has always tolerated such situations. They even regard such unfairness as a normal part of contemporary society. If they feel that they are to blame, they can only
I blame myself for not having connections and abilities, but conflicts will slowly accumulate and eventually they will explode. And this year, due to the addition of more enrollment plans for prestigious schools, more people will enjoy the privileges, that kind of slow
Conflicts that slowly accumulated erupted due to the dissatisfaction of more people.
People living at the bottom can tolerate a very small number of people enjoying privileges, but they cannot tolerate the expansion of the scope of privileges.
Governor He made three points:
First, I disagree with everyone’s opinion that our Jiangnan Province does not conduct admissions in accordance with national policies. She said: “Just now, Director Liang of the Provincial Admissions Office has explained to you some policy basis in admissions, and according to my opinion
As we know, in the enrollment work anywhere in the country, not only the national admissions office has been monitoring the enrollment situation online, but also the Central Discipline Inspection Commission inspection team is constantly checking for disciplinary violations and irregularities at each admission site. Especially now that online enrollment is taking place
After that, the phenomenon of human irregularities has been basically eliminated. In other words, if a candidate’s score is not enough, then his file will not be released at all, and he will not be admitted to the relevant colleges and universities. I am absolutely sure of this.
;"
Second, regarding the special recruitment. Governor He said: "The special recruitment was originally a relatively special admissions system established to take care of candidates with special skills, such as top students in sports and special talents in art.
Students who have obtained excellent results in a certain national competition, etc., are intended to allow such students to get as many opportunities for higher education as possible. But now it seems that this policy has slowly gone out of shape, and many people
We began to look for loopholes in this policy, using fake award certificates, and creating fake certificates of certain skills to gain recruitment opportunities. This made our college entrance examination admission work somewhat distorted, causing the majority of candidates to
This caused strong dissatisfaction with the parents of the candidates. I admit that we made mistakes and deficiencies in this work, but for the provincial admissions office, their workload is also very heavy and they cannot distinguish the true from the false one by one, so this
Please forgive me at all. However, this problem must always be solved. In fact, when I reported the matter to the provincial leaders recently, they have already expressed their position. Here I can tell you that regarding the policy of targeted recruitment, we in Jiangnan
The province will completely cancel it starting next year. Here, I am also very grateful to everyone for supervising our enrollment work."
The third is the increase in enrollment plans for prestigious schools starting this year. Governor He said: "This work is an innovative work carried out by our province this year, and its purpose is to allow more candidates in our Jiangnan Province to
people can enjoy high-quality education from prestigious schools. For this matter, the main leaders of our provincial recruitment office have done a lot of work. The leaders in the province, including me, are also fully supporting this matter, and finally we have made this matter happen.
It can be said that this matter is a huge blessing to our candidates in Jiangnan Province. However, since this is the first time this matter has been carried out this year, a complete set of reasonable plans has not yet been established in terms of relevant admission standards and other aspects.
Come on, I think this matter will become more mature starting next year, but as you have seen this year, there are still many children from ordinary people who have been admitted to Tongji University, Fudan University, etc. because of insufficient scores.
From a prestigious school. I think it is not difficult to do this job well. That is, in the future, wouldn’t it be necessary to strictly admit students based on scores from high to low? Of course, according to the national admissions policy, 20% of colleges and universities have
We have no right to deprive others of their right to merit-based admission, because merit-based admission is one of the most basic principles in college entrance examination admissions. Also, just now Director Liang was explaining the process of some of the situations you provided.
I have also noticed that some of the things are indeed false. For example, there is a candidate whose score is nearly 30 points higher than the admission score of Union Medical College, and he is the first choice, but he was not admitted to this institution.
Therefore, many people think that it is because this candidate has no connections. Here I will also explain to you that in the college entrance examination admission process, candidates who are twenty points higher than a certain college cannot be withdrawn at will.
This is a very strict admissions policy stipulated by the state. For example, the candidate I just talked about, why was he rejected? It was because he was color blind. There are strict regulations in the admissions brochures of medical colleges.
Candidates who are color-blind cannot have physical defects such as color blindness. This is also for the sake of the patient. The same is true for police colleges. Color-blind people cannot be admitted. Think about it, if this candidate is admitted to a medical college or police academy, what will happen to him?
What kind of situation is it? People with red-green color blindness see blood in green, so what happens when the patient develops ascites? Ascites is often green after suppuration. Wouldn't it be scary if the blood and ascites fluid are not clear? Traffic police
If you can't see the traffic lights clearly, wouldn't the traffic be chaotic? What would be the result if the criminal police saw that the blood is green? Haha! I won't say more about these reasons. In short, I thank you all for supervising our work, and we will too
Continuously improve the deficiencies in our work..."
Director Liang told me in more detail. In short, the matter was finally resolved satisfactorily, and Governor He also specifically communicated with the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee afterwards to prevent all media from reporting on the matter.
I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. However, I still felt that something happened too suddenly. "Director Liang, did Governor He really say that we will cancel the recruitment starting next year?"
He nodded and then said: "Actually, this matter is also the general trend. Since the implementation of the point-based recruitment system, candidates and candidates' parents have had great opinions on this. The Ministry of Education has also ordered a stop to this recruitment method. Last year, the Ministry of Education @ Ministry of Education
The inspection team found out that colleges and universities in several provinces collected large amounts of unreasonable funds during the recruitment process, and ordered them to return them to students. In fact, the Ministry of Education knew that this was happening across the country, and it just targeted a few provinces.
Just let the people see it. But this matter will be stopped sooner or later. So it makes sense for Governor He to talk about this matter today."
I said: "Then the plan to increase the number of prestigious schools we are carrying out this year is also a kind of recruitment? Will it also be stopped?"
He smiled and said: "Director Feng, to be precise, it is indeed a recruitment process. However, a famous school is a prestigious school after all, so it can use special policies to cover up the fact that it recruits students through special recruitment. In any case, this is good for our Jiangnan candidates.
Well, if we do what Governor He said, the contradiction will not be so prominent. As long as the candidates and their parents no longer have too many opinions in the future, this matter can go on. The key point is
The problem is to give ordinary people's children a chance, even if they have to pay money, it doesn't matter. Opportunity is the most important, because equal treatment is what everyone needs most."
I deeply agree.
Then, I called Governor He in front of Director Liang and said, "Governor He, I'm sorry, I was delayed because of some other urgent matters today. The mobile phone signal where I am is not very good. I want to inform you.
Do a review.”
But she laughed on the phone, "What did you delay? Hasn't the matter been dealt with? Hasn't your provincial admissions office sent someone here? Your director Liang is very familiar with the admissions policy. Without his understanding of the admissions policy,
To explain in detail, this matter may not go smoothly. Even if you receive the call, you will definitely send him, right?"
I hurriedly said: "Yes. You are right."
She smiled and said: "Isn't that enough? But I still want to criticize you. Now is a special period for your province's recruitment. It is very necessary to keep the phone open at all times. Do you understand?"
I respectfully answered "yes" again
She immediately hung up the phone.
Director Liang asked me: "Director Feng, are you okay?"
I shook my head and immediately told him what Governor He said. He nodded, "Governor He is right. But Secretary Leng looked terrible when he was angry today, so I am also very anxious."
I patted his shoulder and said, "Director Liang, thank you. You have done a very good job on this matter. But you still have to go for this matter. If I receive this call, I will take you with me."
Go. After all, you are the person most familiar with the recruitment policies in our province." (To be continued)
