The Functional Positioning and Practical Rationale of Private Compulsory Education in the New Situation
The global average proportion of private basic education is more than 20 per cent and showing a steadily increasing trend,and the proportion of privately-run education has been gradually formed in the specific economic,cultural and social contexts of each country.In the course of its development,China's private compulsory education schools have gradually formed two functional types:supplemental and selective,playing the roles of supplementing educational resources and promoting students'educational choices,respectively.Private compulsory education schools have the institutional advantages of flexibility and high efficiency.As the government continues to raise the level of investment in basic public education services,low-end supplementary private schools will gradually withdraw from the field of compulsory education,and high-quality,distinctive,selective private schools will become the mainstream of China's compulsory education private schools,which should be strongly supported and encouraged.At present,the negative feelings and development pressure on private compulsory education should be alleviated,and private schools should be guided to improve their quality and develop their own characteristics,so that they can develop in a disjointed manner with public schools,provide selective functions that public schools do not have,maintain the diversity and flexibility of the educational ecosystem,and better satisfy the people's need for diversified,high-quality education.
