The Development And Enlightenment Of Educational Policy Of CPC Since The Founding Of PRC

Educational policy is total directing thought about education work in certain historical period put forward by Party or country. It regulates total direction of education and is fundamental guide of reform and development in educational cause.Since new China was founded, Party’s educational policy has approximately experienced four stages of development. The first stage includes 17 years after the founding of our country , this was the preliminary stage of Party’s educational policy, it put forward abundant thoughts on educational policy, such as“over-all developments”,“the combination of education with labor”, and“placing health first”. The second stage includes the ten years of the Cultural Revolution,this was the stage when Party’s educational policy was seriously distorted. In this stage, educational policy was replaced by leader’s directions, and suffered from extreme distortion in practice.The 1980s was active exploration stage of Party’s educational policy, and it ended the policy that“education serves the proletariat politics”, and put forward thoughts on educational policy such as“three orientations”and“new people with ideal, morality, knowledge and discipline”. The period since the 1990s was the formal establishment and important development stage of Party’s educational policy and it formally established Party’s educational policy in the new period. In the new century, educational policy experienced important development, from the viewpoint that“education serves socialist construction”to the viewpoint that“education serves socialist construction and people”, from the viewpoint that“education combines with productive labor”to the viewpoint that“education combines with productive labor and social practice”, from“developing in an all-round way, morally, intellectually and physically”to“developing in an all-round way, morally, intellectually, physically and aesthetically”, and it put forward important policies such as“giving priority to educational development”and“providing satisfactory education for people”.Looking back upon the history of development on Party’s educational policy since New China was founded, we found that the road for Party to explore socialist educational development with Chinese characteristics is the same as the road for Party to explore socialist development with Chinese characteristics. Neither of them was always developing smoothly. It leaves abundant educational policy thought which now still has important practical significance, and also it leaves us a lesson that we should absorb. The Party should foot hold actual national conditions, Chinese tradition and the phase characteristic of scientifically mastering education under the direction of the theory of people’s overall development of Maximum, correctly place educational function and orientation, follow common people’s expectation and constantly promote educational theory and practical innovation. When it keeps relative stability of educational policy, it constantly consummates Party’s educational policy.The historical development of Party’s educational policy inspires us that the educational policy should be an open system containing education career development policy and educational policy. It mainly answers important questions like what kind of education to hold in China, how to hold education, what kind of talents to cultivate and how to cultivate talents.“make a good job of education which people feel satisfactory”and“give priority to developing education”should be the major concern of Party’s educational career development policy. The core of Party’s educational policy should be: serving socialism, serving people, being constructer and successor of socialism; education combines with productive labor and social practice. Ability is very important and study is for practice; education people first and take moral education as advance, implementing quality education, promoting students’overall development and making healthy growth cultivation.
