上海市静安区教育学院附属学校的前身海防中学,因“弱”“差”而出名。1998年6月,由静安区教育学院承办后成为该区一所九年一贯制的学校。8年后,该校发生了翻天覆地的变化,这里已成为全国知名的素质教育示范校。2004年上半年调查问卷显示,该校小学、初中学生平均每天睡眠时间分别为9.16小时和8.5小时,小学生每天只需0.7个小时即可完成作业,90%的学生感到学习不累;升学指标反映,学校首届初中毕业生合格率达到了100%,承办后的6届中考,60%以上的考生达到了上海市重点高中分数线。《解放日报》曾连续三天头版头条对静教院附校进行了“轻负担”照样“高质量”的连续报道,引起了社会各界的强烈反响。其后,《人民日报》《新华社》等全国各大媒体也予以了跟踪报道。那么,该校是如何开启素质教育的大门呢? The former Hai Phong Middle School, a subsidiary of the School of Education of Jing’an District, Shanghai, is famous for being “weak” and “bad”. In June 1998, after being contracted by Jing’an District Education Institute, it became a nine-year school in the district. Eight years later, the university has undergone earth-shaking changes, and it has become a national model school for quality education. The questionnaires in the first half of 2004 showed that the average daily sleeping time of elementary and junior high school students was 9.16 hours and 8.5 hours respectively. Pupils only needed 0.7 hours per day to complete their homework. Ninety percent of students felt that learning was not tired; The qualified rate of the first junior high school graduates in schools reached 100%. After the contractors’ six-year senior high school entrance examination, more than 60% of the candidates have reached the key high school scores in Shanghai. The “Liberation Daily” had consecutive reports on the first three consecutive days of headlines to the “Supplementary School” school attached to the school, which caused continuous reports of “light burden” and “high quality”. This has aroused strong reactions from all walks of life. Afterwards, various major national media such as the People’s Daily and the Xinhua News Agency also tracked reports. Then, how does the school open the door to quality education?
