Interpretation of the latest policies for Chongqing’s 2023 high school entrance examination

The latest policies for Chongqing’s 2023 high school entrance examination are interpreted as follows:

1. Chongqing High School Entrance Examination: Chongqing’s general high school admissions examinations are gradually diversified, and the selection methods for candidates in different regions are different. The main ways to enter Chongqing High School Entrance Examination include: Joint Entrance Examination, arrival at school, contract signing, school selection, and general high school entrance examination.

2. Joint Admission for High School Entrance Examination: The scope of the Joint Admission mainly includes the nine districts of the main city and some districts and counties. The nine districts of the main city: Yuzhong District, Shapingba District, Nan'an District, Yubei District, Beibei District, Jiangbei District, Banan District, Dadukou District, and Jiulongpo District. Other districts and counties: Changshou District, Yongchuan District, Qijiang District, Dazu District, Tongliang District, Rongchang District, and Bishan District.

3. Indicators arrive at schools: Chongqing municipal, district, and county-level key middle schools will allocate 70% of the enrollment plan quotas to the corresponding schools based on the number of unified enrollment plans of the Education Commission and the class specifications of each junior high school. For junior high schools within the jurisdiction, quotas for target students will be announced uniformly. Due to different local policies, the allocation method may be slightly different. All junior high school graduates can fill in the target student preference.

To put it bluntly, when the target reaches the school, it is the key recommendation of the district. The district's key middle schools are ranked according to a certain score (or a certain number of scores). 70% of the students are admitted in advance and recommended to the school's high school or the district's high school, leaving only 30% of the students to take the city's unified high school entrance examination.

Students who have attended the target school must also take the city's unified high school entrance examination, but the test papers are only marked within the district, not the city's unified marking, and the results have no reference outside the district. For them, the high school entrance examination is just Just a graduation exam. After signing the quota and arriving at school, the school will fill in the application form uniformly, and students cannot fill it in for other schools.

4. Independent enrollment: Another model is to implement a completely independent enrollment method in the three districts and counties of Jiangjin, Qijiang, and Tongnan. From propositions, marking to admission, everything is completed independently by the county education department. You cannot apply for ordinary high schools in other places, but key middle schools directly under the city recruit students separately in these three districts and counties. However, the number of admission places is very small, and the pressure of competition will be relatively high.

5. School selection: This is also a way to enter key middle schools. It is inevitable to pay a certain school selection fee. Parents must take the initiative to contact the school. The earlier you choose a school, the better. The higher your score, the better the discount, and even free tuition. The lower your score, the higher the school selection criteria! In fact, there are some JUPAS schools or municipal key schools in Chongqing that will accept some JUPAS offline students, but they have to pay a school selection fee. There are even many key middle schools directly under the Seven Major Schools that offer school selection, but the corresponding requirements for scores, selection fees, etc. are also very high.
