CCTV News: The Ministry of Education launched the 2025 sunny enrollment special campaign for compulsory education on March 27, which will further rectify "blind-box operations" and "picking the best enrollment". This year, it is specifically proposed to strictly control specific types of enrollment.

It is understood that in 2024, the Ministry of Education made comprehensive arrangements for the national compulsory education enrollment through a special action for the first time. This year, focusing on key issues and weak links such as the internal examination of the mathematics Olympiad and the illegal picking of the top scores that the masses strongly reflected during the enrollment process, the Ministry of Education will continue to draw its sword. For example, it is emphasized again that testing and selection and resumes are not allowed, including setting up key classes, fast and slow classes, and using campus open days to conduct illegal enrollment.

This year, it was also specially proposed to draw the sword for the unhealthy trends in specific types of enrollment. For example, strictly control the enrollment scale of specific types such as foreign languages, arts, and sports, and be reviewed by the provincial level. After admission, it must be announced to block the possibility of "border balls". These projects can only test their interests and specialties in junior high school admissions, and cannot take cultural courses. Such projects are not allowed in the enrollment of "school-aged and primary school students".

At the same time, we will draw the sword for the behavior of picking the best in the name of cultivating top talents. At present, some places and schools have a wide range of early training projects, and under the name of a pilot reform of top-notch innovative talents, they have actually become the guise of being the best in the operation process. For example, some mathematics and science and technology, and some even carry out cross-provincial and cross-city cross-regional selections. The Ministry of Education will focus on controlling such behaviors.

In this special action, the Ministry of Education specially released the "Provincial Reporting and Complaint Acceptance Channels", and also clearly stipulated that county-level education administrative departments should set up special enrollment hotlines, establish a ledger for issues reported by the masses, and carefully check and deal with them one by one. Areas and schools that have frequent enrollment problems, serious circumstances and strong social reactions will be held accountable.

This special action emphasizes: improve the monitoring and early warning of school-age population changes, conduct surveys on the number of students and degrees in each school stage, make predictions and responses in advance, and clarify the dynamic adjustment rules and excess diversion mechanisms for degrees and areas during the enrollment of compulsory education.
