The latest policy of delayed service in schools

The latest policy of school delayed service is as follows:

Policy change

Starting from 2024, the after-school delay service in primary and secondary schools will implement 52 new modes, namely, five-day after-school delay in grades and two-day interest activities every week. This arrangement allows students to have more time to participate in sports, art, music and other interest activities, and children can concentrate on completing their homework in a short time. The after-class delay service will also explicitly require students to complete the homework of the day and review after class under the guidance of the teacher.

Policy background

Education is an important pillar of the development of human society, and primary and secondary schools are an important part of education, which affects the growth of every student. In view of the huge number of primary and secondary school students in China and the heavy homework burden, the Ministry of Education began to take measures to reduce the burden of students' schoolwork, improve the family education environment and create a better learning environment for students by offering after-school delayed service.

This also gives the education sector more opportunities to adjust and implement policies. The policy update also reflects the government's emphasis on education reform, aiming at guiding people to pay more attention to students' physical and mental health and all-round development.

Policy significance

The implementation of 52-mode after-school delay service in primary and secondary schools is beneficial for students to review the learning content of the day in time after class, deepen their understanding of knowledge and consolidate what they have learned. Extracurricular interest activities can meet students' diversified and personalized educational needs, enhance students' interests and hobbies, and thus stimulate students' interest and initiative in learning.

With relatively little homework, students can have enough time to expand and cultivate their hobbies, so that students can find their own advantages and specialties in interest cultivation. At the same time, it also provides parents with more free time, greatly reducing the pressure of students' schoolwork and the burden of family education.

Policy implementation

The new after-school delay policy will be implemented in 2024, and the government will gradually promote and improve it. In the process of implementation, relevant government departments will regularly evaluate and monitor the implementation effect and risk of after-school delayed service to provide better services for students and parents. The school will also supervise and inspect students' schoolwork to ensure that students can make full use of the opportunity of delayed service after class.
