The task is to focus on the role of the main position of school education, actively promote the high-quality development of basic education, make great efforts to strengthen and improve school education with a deep, detailed, strict and practical style, and fully stimulate the enthusiasm and creativity of teachers in teaching and educating people. Improve the school's education quality service system, and ensure that teachers should do what they should teach and students learn well.

All localities and schools should conscientiously organize the faculty and staff to conduct special studies, deeply understand the spirit of the central government's "double reduction" document, especially the important deployment and related requirements for school education and teaching, and fully understand the significance of the "double reduction" work.

Third, effectively reduce the burden of heavy work.

Reducing the burden of excessive homework for compulsory education students is one of the main tasks of the "double reduction". According to the deployment of the central government, the Ministry of Education has put forward clear requirements for strengthening operation management. Schools in all regions must attach great importance to implementation in terms of grasping functions, strictly controlling total volume, improving quality, and strengthening management, and resolutely suppress the burden of excessive work.

The administrative department of education shall check the compulsory education schools one by one, focusing on whether the school has formulated a sound homework management method, whether it has established a total homework control and regular quality evaluation system, and whether the majority of students can complete it within the specified time. Homework, whether a system of assistance, answering, and guidance for students with learning difficulties has been established.

The Ministry of Education has included the above requirements in the important content of education supervision and the "double reduction" key work monitoring account, and publicly conducted questionnaire surveys through the national network cloud platform for primary and secondary schools. The survey results will be used to judge the effectiveness of the work management of local schools. An important reference basis.

Fourth, promote comprehensive coverage of after-school services.

Promoting after-school services is an important measure to support the realization of the "double reduction" work goal, and an important way to highlight the school's characteristics of running a school and promote the overall development of students. In the past two years, positive progress has been made in after-school services, which has effectively alleviated the problem of parents’ difficulty in picking up their children, and has been generally welcomed by the masses. In June of this year, the Ministry of Education issued a notice to further improve after-school services. According to our understanding, during the summer vacation, various localities have made careful preparations for after-school services. After-school services in the new semester should be fully covered and guaranteed. Time "5+2", enrich the content and improve the level, attract students to participate widely. These four sentences are an important goal of after-school service work.

School after-school services should reflect the school’s characteristics and fully tap the potential of teachers.

Schools should strengthen publicity and guidance to parents and students, and promote students to better voluntarily choose to return to campus to participate in after-school services.

To care for teachers, we can make overall arrangements for teachers to implement "flexible commuting" and give corresponding subsidies to teachers who participate in after-school services.
