| The full-scale implementation of after-school services is considered to be a crucial measure in enhancing the "double reduction" work of public satisfaction,while also serving as a significant tool for implementing the fundamental task of establishing moral education.However,the current level of implementation of after-school services in schools falls short of meeting new expectations of urban parent groups for diversified and high quality after-school service education needs.The mismatch between the supply and attractiveness of in-school after-school services and the intended policy goals is increasingly evident.There is an urgent need to improve the policy implementation capacity of in-school after-school services,especially for the issues mentioned above.R City in Sichuan Province,as a model city for compulsory education in China and one of the national pilot units for after-school service education,has achieved some empirical results in the implementation of after-school service policy.However,there are still some shortcomings that need to be addressed.Therefore,based on the current situation of the implementation of after-school services in elementary school in R city,this paper aims the implementation of after-school service policies in three representative public elementary school in urban areas of R city from the perspective of government governance.On this basis,this study further analyzes the causes of the problem and seeks to propose countermeasures and recommendations that correspond to its actual problems.This paper employs theoretical knowledge and research tools,such as quasi-public goods theory,policy implementation theory,and Smith’s policy implementation process model.Furthermore,it conducts literature research,questionnaires,and field interviews to identify the shortcomings in the implementation of the current after-school service policy in R City.These shortcomings include inadequate policy content,a narrow range of curriculum content,teacher burnout,cognitive bias of some parents,low level of cooperation,insufficient financial support,and a backward educational philosophy.The analysis takes into consideration the supply of after-school services by government departments and schools,as well as the demands of teachers and parents for after-school services.On this basis,we further analyze the causes of the problem.In response to the issues discussed above,this paper proposes countermeasures and suggestions from a government governance perspective,including the improvement of relevant laws and regulations;the guarantee of policy implementation within education and other government departments;the encouragement of school and teacher initiative;the enhancement of parent awareness and collaboration;and the establishment of the correct educational concept.All of these measures aim to contribute to the construction of a positive educational ecology in the new era. |
