Defects in China's education

In the new era, there are still some shortcomings in education in China. The following are some major issues.

The quality of education is uneven.

The educational development gap between urban and rural areas and between regions still exists. Some developed areas are relatively rich in educational resources and teachers, while some poor and rural areas have relatively poor educational conditions and the quality of education is not high enough.

The subject structure is unreasonable.

The importance of liberal arts in senior high school is more prominent, which leads some students to pursue liberal arts too much and ignore the development of science. This imbalance also affects students' professional choice and future employment.

The educational evaluation mechanism is not perfect

The current education evaluation system mainly focuses on test scores, knowledge memory and test-taking ability, and ignores the cultivation and development of students' comprehensive quality. This evaluation mechanism easily leads to the utilitarianism of education, which makes students take too many exams and ignores the cultivation of creativity, practical ability and team spirit.

Insufficient vocational education

Vocational education is not closely integrated with industrial demand. Many college graduates find it difficult to find jobs, on the one hand, because they lack practical experience and professional skills, on the other hand, because some professional skills are in short supply. Therefore, reforming and promoting vocational education is still an important topic.

The disconnect between school education and social needs

At present, the demand for innovative, entrepreneurial and comprehensive quality talents is increasing, but the relationship between school education and education is not close enough. School education should pay more attention to cultivating students' innovative ability, practical ability and teamwork spirit, so that they can better meet the needs of social development.
