背景知識
key school
The designation “key school” exists for selected schools at every level: elementary, secondary, and higher. In addition, there are various levels of the “key” designation itself: There are national key institutions; provincial or municipal key institutions, and county or district key institutions. Key schools all enjoy priority funding as well as the privilege of recruiting the best students. At the elementary and secondary levels, this concept is similar to that of a “magnet” or “college preparatory” school in the United States. Entry into such schools is based on examination and academic promise and achievement. For such schools, success usually is measured in terms of the percentage of its graduates entering colleges and universities----especially the key colleges and universities priority in the allocation of limited resources, the training of top-level manpower for China’s reconstruction can be carried out more efficiently. In certain areas, the “key school” concept has come under fire. Indeed, the success of the key elementary and middle schools has been measured too often solely in terms of the college placement of its students, rather than on more objective measurements of learning. Furthermore, remnants of the same sort of elitism that shut down the key schools during the Cultural Revolution have re-emerged, leading to questioning by education authorities. Nevertheless, the vast majority of students gaining admission to China’s colleges and universities are graduates of key upper middle schools. Thus, key schools are likely to continue to thrive as long as they enjoy the near monopoly of placing students in college. Finally, since 1992, a new informal category of schools has emerged: the so-called “elite schools.” These non-governmental schools with state-of-the-art facilities often charge astronomical tuition fees and cater primarily to children of the new and wealthy entrepreneurial class in China. “Elite schools: exist at all levels of education, from kindergarten through higher education.
