Chapter 457 The key is to rely on peers to set off!
In Lu Di in July, the sun was blazing. After participating in the training, the teachers were originally preparing to rush home. As a result, another official document came from the capital, informing them that this year's university admissions examination in Shandong will be held in mid-July. The Ministry of Etiquette
The test papers issued in Shandong have been sealed and dedicated personnel are being dispatched to escort them.
That is to say, in the future, scholars do not need to go to the capital for reference. The university examination can be held directly in the government, and the Ministry of Rites will send the test papers. After the examination is completed, the test papers will be sealed and escorted to Jinan Prefecture for review by the people in the Ministry of Rites.
After the test is completed and the scores are announced, the candidates voluntarily fill in the universities they want to apply for. The auditorium in Shandong and the admissions staff sent by each university will determine the admission list based on the previously determined quota, from high to low.
In order to facilitate the organization, the auditorium in Shandong simply informed those who participated in the training in Jinan not to go back yet. They would go back after taking the exam. At that time, whether they are from Jinan Prefecture or from other prefectures, the transcripts will be sent to them.
In the county, it will save everyone a lot of trouble. You can refer to the university's standards, which are very wide this time. Those who have previously had the title of scholar are directly referenced, and those who have been recruited into the government and teaching system are regarded as having obtained the title of scholar.
, can also be used as a reference. In the next three years, all students and teachers who have completed elementary school or have a higher level of education than those who have completed elementary school will be eligible to enter university. After three years, the criteria for university entrance will be narrowed, and they must enter an institution above junior high school.
Only those with a junior high school diploma or above can take the exam after six years.
The current Shandong and the Shandong of later generations are different in terms of zoning. The Jiaodong Peninsula is basically independent in terms of administration and examination area division, and has little connection with the Shandong Governor's Mansion. When the examination area was established, the Ministry of Rites and Zhu Youjian were both
I feel that if it is set up as an examination area, it will be unfair to the areas that were later restored. Dengzhou Prefecture in Jiaodong already has a high school, but in other places in Shandong, the preparation process for junior primary schools is not at the same pace at all, and there is no way to go there.
Do it together.
With the deepening of restructuring and the increase in newly restored places, the construction of a perfect education system is accelerating. According to Zhu Youjian's requirements, except for border areas, other newly restored places must put in place a systematic framework within three years.
It will be basically perfected in five years, basically covered in ten years, and within twenty years Ming Dynasty will form the basic situation and pattern for launching the literacy movement to the whole society.
Changing the education pattern is a very slow process, and the cost is huge. This time the system was established throughout Shandong, the imperial court allocated one million silver dollars per year to Ma Shiying, and the tax revenue in Shandong in the next three years will also be
Everything is thrown at this. In order to reduce the pressure on Shandong, the salaries of all officials within three years will also be borne by the imperial finance.
In other words, starting from this year, Shandong will not only not be responsible for the imperial government's finances within three years, but also rely on the imperial government's finances for its main expenses. According to this situation, every time the imperial court regains a place, it will have to operate at a loss for several years. Despite this, Ma Shiying has
I feel that the burden on me is quite heavy. Because three years later, the court's requirement is that the government must independently bear the operating expenses of the bureaucracy and education system, and at that time, the court will receive at least 40% of the fiscal and tax revenue into the national treasury.
I went and calculated the accounts carefully. In three years' time, Shandong's fiscal and tax revenue must reach at least four million silver dollars.
But according to the estimated income from agricultural taxes calculated by the working group, the annual input is only about 1.3 million taels of silver dollars. Where can we find the remaining income and expenditure of nearly 3 million yuan? Ma Shiying still has no idea.
Think of eyebrows.
Our Shandong Province is not the capital of Beizhi and Beijing, where most of the industrial and commercial taxes are taken up. The factories and palaces opened in various places in Guanggong contribute millions in tax revenue a year, but there is no palace in Shandong.
Factory! In addition, there is no room for mixing the tobacco and alcohol monopoly tax and customs tax for large tax importers. They are all collected directly by the national tax and are not included in the local tax accounts. Even if it is a warehousing and transportation company in the port area
Even if you cross the water, you won’t be able to eat. Where to expand tax sources, Lao Ma is one of the top two. So even though he is spending money happily now, in fact he is also suffering. Three years later, if he doesn’t
The financial situation has turned around, and this is the end of his career.
Money is always a troublesome thing. The big officials in the feudal territories have a headache for making money, and the common people also have a headache for making money.
In Beijing, the private school run by Liu Dazhuang and Li Yuting's mother has been eagerly waiting for money in the past few days. The primary school admissions examination has just been held in Beijing, and the registration for the fifty-something children of Qiming Private School is based on the policies given by the imperial court.
Students from private schools are given a subsidy of three taels of silver dollars for each student who has passed the elementary school entrance examination. If more than 20 students can pass the elementary school entrance examination this time, Liu Dazhuang and the others will be able to secure a large portion of their school funding, and the school will be able to maintain daily operations.
.
"Master's wife, don't worry. Even if this year is like last year, with only eight or nine passing the elementary school, I can still find a way to raise enough money to run the school next year." After the exam, Li Yuting quickly asked the students about their exam status and
The students analyzed the test papers together and answered correctly. Then they found that this year's test papers were much more difficult than last year, and the students' scores were quite unsatisfactory. This situation made Li Yuting anxious, and Liu Dazhuang hurriedly
The man next to me said words of comfort.
"The Point Guard Is Here"
"Dazhuang, I am not only worried about the school funding, but also about delaying the children. The test papers issued by the imperial court are so difficult, and I have to struggle to answer many of them. I am afraid that my knowledge is not qualified for teaching.
Recruited."
The difficulty of this year's test paper made Li Yuting even doubt her own level. With this level of difficulty, it would be a bit misleading to run a private school.
After they had been anxious and self-doubting for five days, the list of primary school admissions students was announced. Liu Dazhuang didn't even bother to pick up the car, but ran to look at the list, more concerned than taking the exam himself.
"Hey, dear, this Qiming private school is amazing. Look at the students from our Nancheng No. 2 primary school, they actually got nearly thirty students, which is more than some public schools! I heard that their
The students here only go to school at night, and they are still working during the day! And most of the children have been in school for one or two years, unlike public schools, where most of them have been in school for three years."
Before Liu Dazhuang could finish counting how many people had passed the exam at his school, someone watching the results expressed emotion.
More than twenty students passed the exam? Liu Dazhuang listened to the gossip and counted the list hurriedly. After counting for a long time, he finally determined that there were twenty-seven students from Qiming Private School who had passed the exam.
What's going on? Obviously the results in the exam were not ideal, but when they came down from the list, there were a few more people who passed the exam than they expected. Liu Dazhuang was a little confused about this. If you can't figure it out, just don't figure it out, and hurry up and give it to the teacher's wife.
Announcement of good news is the right thing to do.
Liu Dazhuang and the others overlooked a problem. The students from their school did poorly in the exam, but the problem is that the students from other schools did worse than them. The exam is not about how well you study. The key is that you have
There is no peer support. This time, Qiming School’s high enrollment rate is due to the poor performance of its peers.
The increase in the difficulty of the primary school entrance examination is the result of Zhu Youjian's personal attention. He wanted to see whether the education reform in recent years has effectively improved the quality of education and improved the basic literacy of the people!
