'優(yōu)師計劃'為中西部培養(yǎng)師范生

About 10,000 teachers' college students will receive targeted training annually starting this year, in a bid to improve the performance of primary and middle school teachers in underdeveloped areas in China's central and western regions, according to a recent plan. The special training will be conducted by six normal universities directly under the Ministry of Education (MOE) and local-level normal colleges for schools in counties that emerged from poverty and along the land borders, says the plan released by nine departments including MOE and the Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China Central Committee.

教育部、中央宣傳部等九部門近日印發(fā)《中西部欠發(fā)達地區(qū)優(yōu)秀教師定向培養(yǎng)計劃》，從2021年起，將每年為脫貧縣和中西部陸地邊境縣中小學(xué)校培養(yǎng)1萬名左右?guī)煼渡?，從源頭上改善中西部欠發(fā)達地區(qū)中小學(xué)教師隊伍質(zhì)量。優(yōu)師專項培養(yǎng)任務(wù)由教育部6所直屬師范大學(xué)和地方師范院校聯(lián)合承擔(dān)。

The students should make a pledge to return to serve in primary and middle schools in designated counties for at least six years, the plan says.

國家優(yōu)師專項師范生要承諾畢業(yè)后到生源所在省份定向縣中小學(xué)履約任教不少于6年。

Students enrolled in the plan will be exempt from tuition and accommodation fees and will receive living subsidies.
