The Rebuilt of Schools in Yuezhou in the Song Dynasty
Since the Tang Dynasty,Shaoxing has begun to set up official schools.They were abolished in the Five Dynasties,while temples were kept to offer sacrifices to the saints.In the early Northern Song Dy-nasty,the government adopted its policy of attaching importance to martial arts instead of culture and edu-cation,mainly focusing on the imperial examinations rather than education.The local official schools were not taken seriously,and the Yuezhou official schools existed in name only.Later,although the Yuezhou of-ficial school was repaired under the promotion of people of insight,The schools were too small and noisy,which seriously affected the teaching and training of talents.In the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty,Wu Zi,the supervisor of Yuezhou,student of Hu Yuan,resolutely donated his own mansion as a school.It was shocking in the context of the flourishing of Buddhism and Taoism at that time.Wu Zi's foresight and lofty character were not only deeply appreciated by the people,but also had a profound impact on leading the social atmosphere and advocating the emphasis on education and learning.
