Chapter 040 Wang Zhongs Countermeasures(1/2)
"We are here this time because we have something else to do." Principal Bai's face darkened slightly, with a hint of sadness in his eyebrows. "Nowadays, there are many parents who know that their children are less than 16 years old, but they falsely report their age and give away their children.
Go work."
"I went to the development zone office to find Lucifer and the district chief, but they didn't take it seriously at all."
As he spoke, Principal Bai became a little excited, "Is it for the sake of the children's future to let the children study? Isn't it because the government sets the age limit of sixteen because it is afraid that the children under the age will be too young and not be able to distinguish right from wrong?"
If you don’t have the ability to enter society now, it’s easy to make mistakes!”
"Those children should stay in school and study hard at their age." Principal Bai said more and more excitedly.
"Principal Bai, don't get excited." Wang Zhong quickly advised him, "If you try to handle this matter, you will definitely not be able to get it done."
"Why can't I do it?" Principal Bai was still a little unhappy and unconvinced. Of course, it was not towards Wang Zhong, but towards this matter.
Having read the original work from a God's perspective, Wang Zhong can certainly understand Teacher Bai's mood, "It's useless for you to go to the parents about this matter. If you can persuade them, how can they lie about the ages of the children?
We have to send them to work!"
Teacher Bai was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh, shaking his head and sighing.
"Why!"
His face was full of helplessness.
"I know that too, but since I, as their teacher, have seen this situation, I can't just ignore it!" Teacher Bai was heartbroken over this matter.
"This is the case with many things. Even if you know you can't do something, you still have to do it!" Wang Zhong nodded, and then his voice suddenly changed, "Parents have to do the work. In the final analysis, this matter still comes from policy."
“If we want to solve this problem, we must start from the policy perspective.”
"Start from the policy?" Principal Bai looked at Wang Zhong, then raised his hand and said helplessly, "It's no use. I've been to the development zone office several times, Defu, and the Wang District of the development zone.
Chief, they all agree on this matter."
"Especially Defu, he told me that even if these kids go into society and make money, they can still learn if they want to in the future."
"If we really go out into the society and see the colorful world, those children are still young, how can they be restrained, and how can they think about learning to read."
Teacher Bai said angrily. Guo Minhang next to him also looked solemn, but because he had just arrived not long ago, he didn't have a thorough understanding of the situation here, so he just sat quietly and listened to Principal Bai and Wang Zhong.
Speak without interrupting.
Wang Zhong solemnly said, "Although you can study at any time, there is a huge difference between a teenage boy studying now and studying in the future."
"That's right!" Teacher Bai said with deep approval, and Guo Minhang couldn't help but nod.
"We, the children of farmers, reading is the fairest and easiest way to change our destiny."
The two of them deeply believed Wang Zhong's words.
If this were placed in ancient society, the people at the bottom would not even have the opportunity to study, let alone change their destiny.
Even if those children from poor families in the eyes of scholars were in a state of poverty for a while, their ancestors had once been rich, but their family fortunes were in decline, but even if their family fortunes were in decline, it was relative.
Like now, nine-year compulsory education, high school and university have opened their doors to the whole society.
"This matter must be solved from the root! We can't just rely on lobbying the parents of the children. Only by starting from the root and starting from the policy can we make it possible."
"The export of labor to Fujian Province is a strategic decision jointly made by the two provinces and is also one of the poverty alleviation measures. How could it be stopped just because of a few words from us?"
Principal Bai said helplessly.
Wang Zhong said, "The policy will naturally not stop. At this time, if you go out to work, you will not be tired and you can still make money, which can indeed solve the immediate needs of the villagers."
In order to build villages, prepare land, and build houses, many villagers have borrowed money from credit unions. Their families owe foreign debts. Now they are going to work in Fujian Province, and the governments on both sides are helping to cover the costs. There is no need to worry about being cheated. It is indeed a good job to make money.
A good way.
"What do you mean?" Principal Bai frowned and looked at Wang Zhong in confusion.
Wang Chong smiled and said, "You still have to find someone from the education system. If the county education bureau can't handle it, then go to the district to find someone. If the district can't handle it, then go to the province. As long as the education bureau issues a document,
Isn’t this matter settled?”
"Where will the Education Bureau issue documents?"
Principal Bai explained, "This matter is not that simple. I went to the development zone, the county, and the police station and asked. We are all immigrants. In addition, in recent years, we have been strict in arresting those who have passed the exam.
There are many dolls that don’t even have birth certificates. They go to the police station to apply for household registration certificates because of demand. Although we as teachers know the age of the students, the parents insist that the students have reached the age limit.
Even at the police station, there is nothing we can do."
"Even if the Education Bureau does issue a document, it will be of no use!"
This is a difficult thing to define. There is no birth certificate, and the age of the children is not determined by what the parents say. The police station will register the age according to what the parents say. The police station does not have that many manpower. Send someone to go down.
A survey verified the dolls' actual ages.
"Principal Bai, don't worry!" Wang Zhong said with a smile, "Without birth certificates, the ages of the children are indeed decided by their parents."
"But we don't focus on the age of the dolls, we change our thinking."
"Change your thinking?" Principal Bai and Guo Minhang looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
"What's the new idea?" Principal Bai quickly asked Wang Zhong with an expectant look on his face.
Wang Zhongdao "Rejuvenating the country through science and education is one of our country's important national policies, and nine-year compulsory education is a fundamental plan for our country to realize the four modernizations."
"The parents of children here are basically farmers, ordinary people, and they don't have much foresight. Sometimes they are inevitably blinded by the immediate interests, but people in the education department, I am sure everyone knows about education.
How important it is to our children, how important it is to our country."
"We can't convince those parents, so let's let the Education Bureau issue strict orders and policies to them. Let's be more flexible and not limit the age of children going out to work, but can we make a fuss about the nine-year compulsory education!"
Principal Bai's eyes lit up, but then the light that had just risen quickly dimmed. "If only it were that easy!"
"Our school only has primary school. Nowadays, many children drop out of school and are sent to work by their parents before they even finish primary school, let alone junior high school."
Although Principal Bai doesn't want to admit it, this is indeed the most real situation at the moment.
"This is not something we should consider." Wang Zhong shook his head and said with a smile, "What we can do is to report this situation to our Xihaigu education system and give us suggestions that we think are feasible, but in the end
It is not up to us to decide whether to adopt it or not.”
"Principal Bai, you are just the principal of a rural primary school, Teacher Guo is just a support teacher, and I am just an ordinary citizen. We can't change the policy. We can only make suggestions and report to the higher authorities what we know.
Case."
Although I hate to admit it, this is indeed the reality.
Teacher Bai was still a little unwilling, "Is there really no other way?"
Wang Zhong shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not completely impossible. The reason why parents send their children to work is because studying costs money, and working can make money."
"Another point is that we have to admit that there are many children who are really not suitable for studying. For example, those who have stayed in grade for three or four years and those who have been in elementary school for more than ten years. It's not that they don't want to study, but they are not suitable. They are also
They work hard and work hard, but they really can't learn."
"Although there are not many students like this, there are a few. Their parents don't want them to continue studying and send them to work to earn money. I think it's understandable."
“But if you are too young, your mind is not mature enough, and you have not yet established a correct social outlook and values, and you are sent out to work by your parents, it is true that you will most likely end up in the society by mistake due to premature contact with society in the future.
Wrong path."
"I know everything you said." Principal Bai was a little anxious. "Tell me your method."
"Don't these parents want their children to make money? If the scale of our student aid fund is large enough, we can make the coverage of academic examination rewards wider. For example, if those who are admitted to the county No. 1 middle school from primary school to junior high school,
If we give rewards to those who get into the top classes in the college entrance examination, and if we do well in the college entrance examination, those who get into the undergraduate program, and those who get into the undergraduate program, if we provide greater rewards and stimulate them, won't those parents be tempted?"
"The children have a future and can make money. If there is such a good thing, I will definitely be willing to let my children study." Guo Minhang said thoughtfully, but then he changed his voice and became a little hesitant again.
He glanced at Wang Zhong and said cautiously, "But if this is the case, will it change the taste?"
Principal Bai also had a look of confusion on his face.
"No matter what the process is, as long as the goal can be achieved, there is no need to think too much about the details."
"And if this is the case, to a certain extent, it can indeed stimulate children's enthusiasm for reading, stimulate their ambition, and make their parents willingly send them to continue studying."
"But the student aid fund is linked to the kiln factory's income. Now the kiln factory's business life and the funds in the student fund account are sufficient, but if one day the kiln factory's business deteriorates and the income drops, this assistance will
The funding issue of the student fund may not be guaranteed.”
"And this method is indeed, as Teacher Guo said, a little stale. It is okay for temporary use, but the children's current world view and values are not yet mature. If they really keep doing this, they may be given to the children.
What bad effects will it bring?"
"If we encounter some paranoid parents again, regardless of the consequences, they force their children to study and study without any method, just to get that reward, maybe it will be counterproductive to some extent."
Wang Zhong feels that this is not unfounded worry. The children are still young now. If they are taught that everything is like money at this time, then these children will most likely lose many very meaningful things in the future and become
Only profit-seeking, money comes first.
Perhaps they would have had various dreams and become astronauts, pilots, soldiers, scientists, teachers, doctors, lawyers, etc. in the future.
Wang Zhong's words also made Principal Bai and Teacher Guo fall into deep thought.
Children at these ages are like a blank sheet of paper. They are influenced by their parents, taught by their teachers, and changed by their living environment. No one can tell what they will look like in the future.
Principal Bai and Teacher Guo sat at Wang Zhong's house for more than an hour. They talked about many aspects of the student fund and the children's schooling, although many of their words were of no use.
But Principal Bai, who left Wang Chong's house, made a decision after thinking about it for a night.
To be continued...
