Grasping high-quality and effective thematic education with a highly responsible spirit | Ideology | Education

According to the central arrangement, the second batch of themed education will be carried out in government agencies at and below the provincial level, their directly affiliated units, and other grassroots party organizations. All regions, departments, and units should understand the spirit of the central government, implement the goals, requirements, and key measures proposed by the central government, and ensure the connection and linkage between the first and second batches of theme education. With a highly responsible spirit, high standards and high-quality requirements should be consistently implemented to ensure that the second batch of theme education achieves tangible results.

We should pay attention to meeting the target requirements. The overall requirements of the second batch of thematic education are consistent with those of the first batch. We must firmly grasp the overall requirements of "learning ideology, strengthening party spirit, emphasizing practice, and building new achievements", and integrate theoretical learning, investigation and research, promoting development, inspecting and rectifying, and establishing regulations and systems. We must make "learning ideology" the primary task throughout, adhere to the dual focus and promotion of education and practice, guide party members and cadres to continue to work hard on using learning to shape their souls, enhance their intelligence, improve their conduct, and promote their work, and avoid the phenomenon of "two skins" of knowledge and action.

We should pay attention to strengthening classification guidance. Compared with the first batch, the second batch of thematic education has been downgraded, with a wide range, diverse types, and a large number of participating units. To accurately grasp these characteristics, while highlighting the focus on the leadership team and cadres at or above the county level, we should make arrangements according to different levels, fields, and objects, adapt to local conditions, scientifically and reasonably, improve organizational guidance methods, identify the focus and development points of the second batch of theme education, and enhance targeted effectiveness.

We should focus on solving practical problems. The effectiveness of theme education is best seen by the public and has the most say. The second batch of theme education participating units have a more direct connection with the masses, focusing on the urgent and difficult needs of the masses, guiding party members and cadres to strengthen their sense of purpose, respond to the needs of the masses, and promote problem-solving. We should seize prominent issues in the fields of employment, education, healthcare, elderly care, housing, and other areas of people's livelihood, and propose solutions. We should be good at dissecting sparrows, draw lessons from others, and promote the resolution of a type of problem through dissecting a problem.

We should pay attention to the coordination and linkage. The transfer of theme education from the first batch to the second batch is a relay race, and it is necessary to prevent separation and batch disconnection. While learning from the effective practices and successful experiences of the first batch of theme education, the second batch of theme education units should effectively connect with the work related to the first batch of theme education, establish a system of problem lists, responsibility lists, and task lists for difficult problems that are manifested at the grassroots level and rooted at the top, and coordinate up and down to do a good job of answering the same questions.

We should pay attention to preventing formalism and bureaucracy. The second batch of themed education extends to the grassroots level, and the more it goes to the grassroots level, the more we should guard against the tendency of "layer by layer reinforcement". We must establish a correct view of political achievements, adhere to the principle of starting from reality in everything, and not focus on superficial achievements or fame. We should focus more on practical results and less on formal efforts. We should not make superficial or arbitrary renovations, and focus on practical work, laying a solid foundation, and taking solid steps. In terms of investigation, research, and inspection of rectification, we should avoid being greedy for the bigger picture and avoid avoiding the bigger picture. We should pay more attention to open door education, humbly listen to the opinions of the masses, and use the sense of gain, happiness, and security of the masses to test the effectiveness of theme education.

Thought leads action, attitude affects effectiveness.
