Innovation for a 21st century education

IN a bid to further develop local education and to reform the educational system, Putuo District formed an education association at a meeting held by the district education bureau and East China Normal University in late February.

The association is made up of 13 local schools in the district, including kindergartens, primary schools and middle schools, and will serve as a platform to share teaching resources between the university and participating schools.

Led by the division of schooling and lifelong education of East China Normal University, the association will benefit all members and make plans for how to train teachers, develop new curricula, manage schools and recruit talent. It will also work on better cooperation and projects between the members.

A director from Nujiang Middle School said that the association would make high-quality teaching resources more accessible.

It will also allow the members to gather valuable new experience and exchange ideas with other member schools, which will improve school management and teaching quality.

The alliance will help young teachers to learn from more senior peers and experts within the district.

The working mechanism will include a school, two groups and three teams.

The school will provide training programs to young teachers; the two groups are designed to strengthen education supervision and guide subject development; and the three teams are set up to strengthen communication and collaboration between different grades, schools, and projects.

In the past few years, the district education bureau has established the local education positioning, namely, the educational circle led by East China Normal University, the Caoyang No. 2 High School Educational Park, and 10 sub-district educational associations.

By now, nine sub-districts have established the educational associations. The bureau will continue to push forward the initiative in Wanli Sub-district and strive to meet the growing demands from the public with better educational quality and resources.

Caoyang No 2. High School Educational Park was officially established on March 1.

The school will absorb high quality teaching resources from China and the world, conduct experiments in classroom teaching and campus management and share its resources with other schools.

Some member schools are already offering optional German and Italian classes.
