Recently, "Yang Wei's twin daughters are studying at home" has triggered heated discussions. On March 14, Yang Wei posted a video response.
Yang Wei said in the video that many netizens left messages saying that "letting your children go to private tutors means you are rich", but he was just because his children (three children) got sick 11 times a year (3 major illnesses and 8 minor illnesses), and his wife Liu Yun was exhausted from taking care of the children. He had been unable to sleep for four nights, so he decided to let the children take leave to go home to recuperate and hired a private tutor to make up for their homework.
Yang Wei said that he did not recommend that everyone follow suit, but only shared his experience in cultivating children's learning. When the children recover, they will return to school.
The Ministry of Education has clearly stopped homeschooling
The topic of Yang Wei letting his twin daughters go to school at home has once again triggered people's discussion about "homeschooling".
In fact, this is not a new concept - as early as around 2016, when the "Chinese Studies craze" began, many parents arranged for their children to drop out of school and transfer to "private schools". A survey at that time showed that about 6,000 people in China had practiced homeschooling, and about 50,000 parents were interested in trying this education model.
This matter attracted the attention of the Ministry of Education. In 2017, the Ministry of Education issued the "Notice on Compulsory Education Enrollment in 2017." The "Notice" points out that we must pay close attention to students who receive education from social training institutions such as "private schools" and "Bible Reading Classes". For those who really need to postpone school due to physical health and other reasons, parents or other legal guardians should apply to the county-level education department. , students can defer their studies only after being approved, and they are not allowed to substitute home learning for compulsory education uniformly implemented by the state without authorization. It is reported that this is the first time that my country has explicitly stopped "homeschooling" and "private school" education.
At the legal level, the "Compulsory Education Law" also clearly stipulates that compulsory education is a unified education implemented by the state that all school-age children and teenagers must receive, and it is a public welfare undertaking that the state must protect. At the same time, “Parents or other legal guardians of school-age children and teenagers shall ensure that they enter school on time, accept and complete compulsory education in accordance with the law.”
