Multi-dimensional Cooperation:A Path to Enhance After-school Services in Guizhou's Primary and Secondary Schools

Optimizing after-school services for primary and secondary schools is an important initiative to carry out the spirit of the 20th Party Congress, implement the “double reduction” policy, adhere to the “five education” and explore the integration of the “five education”, and promote the diversified and distinctive development of the “five education”, and it is a milestone event in the transition from traditional examination- oriented education to quality education. In order to solve the problem of “three and a half hours” for parents and increase the people's sense of gain and happiness, more and more primary and secondary schools in Guizhou are offering colorful after-school services, “growth class” courses and interest activities. In recent years, around the “burden” policy documents one after another, but the burden of primary and secondary school students has not improved significantly, “school pressure, outside the school burden”, “only the theory of scores” and so on. The chaotic phenomenon of education has accumulated and is difficult to return. After a long period of field research, visiting typical cases, understanding special cases and summarizing and analyzing the research data, the research group found that there are problems such as unsound supervision and management mechanism, insufficient teachers' strength, incomplete resource allocation, and low parental participation in Guizhou's primary and secondary school after-school services. Based on the multifaceted and collaborative approach, the research group proposes measures to improve the quality of after-school services, such as establishing a sound management and supervision system, improving teachers' teaching and learning abilities, optimizing the allocation of after-school education resources, and promoting the development of co-operation between home and school, with a view to providing decision-making references and suggestions for improvement to the governmental departments, educational institutions and parents.
