Importance of entrance examination mechanism for primary and secondary school students
Choose students with high learning potential
Examination can test students' basic learning knowledge and ability to a certain extent, which is conducive to selecting those students with great learning potential. Random enrollment can't do this, which will lead to uneven learning foundation and potential of admitted students.
It is not conducive to educational equity.
If you only get admission opportunities through random opportunities, those students who have learning potential but unfortunately are not admitted will lose better educational opportunities and find it difficult to give full play to their talents. This is not conducive to educational equity.
Prevent polarization of educational resources
High-quality educational resources will be more easily obtained by students with good family background, while students with poor learning foundation will be more and more concentrated in some schools. This will accelerate the polarization of educational resources and is not conducive to social mobility.
Increase teachers' teaching pressure
Students' learning foundation and potential are uneven, which will bring great difficulty to teachers' teaching. Teachers need to take care of students at different levels, which will undoubtedly increase teaching pressure and affect teaching quality.
Parents' anxiety
Parents always want their children to go to better schools out of concern for their children. If the enrollment process is too casual rather than relying on children's strength, parents' anxiety will not be alleviated.
