Only by ensuring a fair starting point for the college entrance examination can we achieve "unrestricted selection of talents" and maintain social fairness and justice
A college entrance examination selection mechanism that better adapts to the requirements of building a high-quality education system and provides better services to improve the quality of independent talent cultivation will allow more people to enjoy the opportunity to excel in life
The 2023 college entrance examination has arrived as scheduled. Millions of candidates from across the country walked into the exam room, facing challenges and pursuing their dreams.
In order to achieve a safe college entrance examination, the Ministry of Education recently issued a notice deploying various regions to carry out the "2023 College Entrance Examination Escort Action", taking practical and effective measures in exam organization, exam safety, policy promotion, and candidate services. Public security and traffic management departments in various regions are also on high alert, strictly managing the traffic order around the examination venues, actively serving the travel of candidates, parents, and examination staff, and fully ensuring the safety and timely response of candidates.
The annual college entrance examination concerns the vital interests of many families and the future and destiny of countless students. For the vast number of candidates, the college entrance examination is a condensed period of youth, and years of sweat and hard work will be tested in this moment. The college entrance examination is also a "coming of age ceremony" with struggle as the foundation. In preparing for the exam, one should understand oneself, think about the future, integrate personal interests into the trend of social development, and carefully choose the direction of future development. There are so many crucial steps in life, and the college entrance examination may be one of them. Guarding the dreams of the students has planted the seeds of sunshine in their hearts.
At present, the channels for growth and success have been greatly expanded, but the college entrance examination is still an important channel for promoting orderly upward mobility of social classes, an important way for underprivileged students to change their own destiny, and an important bottom line for safeguarding educational and social equity. There cannot be any relaxation in ensuring fairness in exams. In addition to ensuring the absolute safety of exam questions and papers and cracking down on exam fraud, it is also necessary to improve the exam epidemic prevention plan and emergency response plan, adhere to scientific and precise epidemic prevention, and ensure that "all exams should be taken". In addition, in order to maintain and promote the fairness of enrollment opportunities in universities, relevant departments have continued to take a series of measures in recent years, such as implementing the national support for enrollment cooperation in the central and western regions, implementing special plans for key universities to face rural and poverty-stricken areas, improving the participation of migrant children in the college entrance examination in their destination areas, cracking down on illegal issues such as missing student registration, separation of student registration, and false student registration, severely cracking down on "college entrance examination immigrants", and enforcing strict discipline in enrollment work, etc. Only by ensuring a fair starting point for the college entrance examination can we achieve the goal of selecting talents without any constraints and maintain social fairness and justice.
The examination and enrollment system is the basic education system of the country, which is related to the overall development of the country. Today, our need for high-quality higher education is more urgent than ever before, and our thirst for scientific knowledge and outstanding talents is stronger than ever before. Whether it is to achieve the goal of "accelerating the construction of a strong education, technology, and talent country", or to implement the requirement of "comprehensively improving the quality of independent talent cultivation, focusing on cultivating top-notch innovative talents, and gathering talents from all over the world for use", we must make good use of the talent selection mechanism of the college entrance examination to select more outstanding talents for the country. On this basis, we will solidly promote the comprehensive reform of the college entrance examination, continuously deepen the reform of exam content, deeply implement the pilot work of the Strong Foundation Plan, and continuously improve the enrollment system of higher vocational education exams. Only in this way can we further enhance the scientificity of college entrance examination selection, help cultivate socialist builders and successors with comprehensive development in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor, and provide stronger talent support for China's economic and social development.
Cultivate in four seasons, harvest in midsummer. There is a letter to candidates, in which a paragraph is warm and powerful: "There is no wasted time on the desk of a young man. Ten years of sharpening a sword, those seemingly unremarkable days will eventually show you the meaning of perseverance." We believe that every student with dreams can live up to their youth and era, and strive towards a broader stage of life. We believe that a college entrance examination selection mechanism that is more adaptable to the requirements of building a high-quality education system and better serves to improve the quality of independent talent cultivation will allow more people to have the opportunity to shine in life, the opportunity to realize their dreams, and the opportunity to grow and progress together with the motherland and the times.
