May 6-7 is the time for the entrance interview of 171 non-governmental primary school in Shanghai in 2017. Some parents reported that during the student interview, parents were required to do a questionnaire survey. The questionnaire not only examined parents’ knowledge, but also required to fill in information such as grandparents’s educational background, work units, etc, it is just like the posture of “three generations of investigation. In this regard, the school involved responded that the question was to let parents have fun while waiting. After learning about this, the Shanghai Municipal Education Commission asked the relevant schools to rectify immediately, and reported the relevant situation and handling opinions, and will approve the enrollment plan for next year.

In addition, it is revealed that the “two sides” of a primary school in Shanghai depends on the figure of the parents, and the obese and overweight people should not be in all kinds of farces, recruiting students into parents, which not only deviates from the basic game rules of fair competition and survival of the fittest, but also has the suspicion of naked identity discrimination and personality insult.
After the incident came to light, the school involved hurriedly clarified: the questionnaire was just for parents to spend time, not to test their knowledge, and had nothing to do with the recruitment of students, of course, I can’t believe it. Otherwise, the Shanghai Municipal Education Commission will not issue a ticket or order rectification. So, what exactly did these private elite schools do to test their parents and check for three generations?
There is no doubt that in terms of private education in primary schools, big cities have always been in the “seller’s market”. In particular, a very small number of well-known private primary schools are very popular every time they enroll students. Under this background, the school is in an absolute psychological advantage, and it naturally has the confidence to dominate parents to do this and that. On the other hand, in view of the fact that Shanghai has banned the entrance examination non-governmental primary school, the “famous Primary School” objectively faces a problem of “how to find high-quality students”-since statistically speaking, if parents are excellent, children are more likely to be excellent. Then, it is not surprising that some schools “test parents” to choose students.
It is worth noting that in the past few years, non-governmental primary school “parents” have rarely happened. However, in the last year or two, due to the ban on the written entrance examination, the core competitiveness of private elite schools in the past is no longer “pinching” in advance. In order to maintain the retention of “high quality students”, some non-governmental primary school have to find and lock those “top excellent students” through the alternative screening scheme of “curve examination”. And this is exactly the key to continue to maintain the aura of famous schools, but did famous schools make good students, or did good students make famous schools? This is an unknown thing.
You can say that this is the arrogance of a famous school, but why can’t you regard it as the deficiency of a famous school. Based on the fear of “missing quality students”, these schools are not allowed to be decent and rules, and turn to disguised examinations and continue to “pinch the point” by any means “. Although many people think that this kind of practice is only the exercise of market-oriented independent right of running schools by private schools, so it is understandable. However, we should reiterate that the autonomy of non-governmental primary school is by no means borderless. If these schools are allowed to continue on their own, then the basic educational rights and fair order established by the compulsory education law will be impossible to talk about.
