Chapter 20 Responsibilities of the School
The empty corridor could easily hear the distant voice, and I heard Teacher Xia following the principal's footsteps and asking, "Principal You, Zhang Wei's brother called me yesterday and said that his younger brother wants to come back to school, I think this is feasible, but the director of education disagrees, please help." ”
You Cunxi smiled: "Why doesn't he agree? Why do you think he can come back? That student I know that fighting in school is more important than taking the initiative to suspend school, and it has a profound impact." ”
Teacher Xia said anxiously: "But as a teacher, since students want to come back to school, shouldn't we support them vigorously?"
Ye Huai'an, who heard this, was a little surprised, since the last time they met, he thought that this Teacher Xia was quite clear about good students and bad students, and it was obvious to look at her attitude towards Lin Yawen, but now she actually asked the principal to help Zhang Wei in order to return to school, and she didn't look like a teacher who hated bad students.
You Cunxi stopped and said: "But now it's a special situation, there is less than a month to take the high school entrance examination, and now when you go back to school, do you dare to guarantee that he will not disturb other students?"
"This ......" Teacher Xia hesitated for a while, this was also what she was worried about.
You Cunxi nodded and said: "You see, but as you said, the school should support every student who wants to study, I can help you talk to the director about it, but not now, but after the high school entrance examination, and he must be allowed to score more than 400 points in the high school entrance examination, otherwise I will not agree." ”
"400 points?" Teacher Xia was taken aback, the full score of the BH City High School Entrance Examination was 630, which means that the passing score may not be anything for ordinary students, but for a student like Zhang Wei who has been suspended for almost a year, can he really do it?
The two of them had walked in front of Ye Huai'an as they talked, and You Cunxi saw Ye Huai'an standing at the door of his office, and asked strangely, "Are you?"
"Teacher Ye?" Ye Huai'an was not born yet, Teacher Xia immediately shouted out in surprise, it seems that Ye Huai'an left a deep impression on her last time.
Ye Huai'an smiled and said, "Teacher Xia, we meet again." Well...... Hello Principal You, I am here to apply for a job this time. ”
"Apply?" You Cunxi was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Teacher Ye, hello, I'm glad that you came to our school to apply, but the teachers in our school are all directly transferred from the Education Bureau, and they don't apply directly." ”
Ye Huaian smiled: "I know this, but it is all a procedure taken by ordinary teachers, and what I want to apply for is not an ordinary teacher." ”
"Oh?" You Cunxi had an inexplicable smile on his face.
Teacher Xia looked at these two people and suddenly felt that the temperament of the two was actually somewhat similar, especially when they laughed, they were all the kind of smiles with deep meaning and confidence. Seeing that the two seemed to have something important to talk about, he nodded hurriedly and said, "Principal You, I won't bother you if you have something, I will convey it to Zhang Wei and say goodbye." ”
Seeing Teacher Xia leave with high heels, You Cunxi stretched out his hand to Ye Huai'an and said, "Please come and sit in my office for a while." ”
Ye Huai'an followed into the principal's office, the interior dress is not luxurious, but it is by no means mediocre, especially the two-meter-long desk is particularly conspicuous, You Cunxi sat on the chair and then asked Ye Huai'an to sit down, behind him was a display cabinet, which was full of various awards, medals, trophies, copper, iron, wood, crystals, all kinds of piled up together, quite imposing.
"Tell me what's so special about you as a teacher," You Cunxi put his hands on the desk, crossed his fingers under his lips and said slowly.
Ye Huai'an took out a scroll from his hand and handed it to You Cunxi and said, "Principal You, please take a look at this." ”
"This is?" You Cunxi curiously took the scroll and slowly opened it, inside the scroll was a pair of brush words, on which only one word was written, the lines of this word were like flowing water, making people feel that the pen and ink were fragrant at a glance, bringing people a kind of artistic conception that traveled to ancient times. And the handwriting of this word is still a little familiar, but You Cunxi is a little afraid to confirm it.
Ye Huai'an smiled and said, "Principal You, I want to ask what are the responsibilities of a school?"
"Nature is to teach people to read and educate people to be upward. You Cunxi looked at Ye Huai'an with interest, wanting to see what this young man wanted to say.
Ye Huai'an laughed softly: "Wrong, reading is the way, and upward is the attitude." But learning is the method, and success is the goal. Therefore, reading is not the only way to succeed! Lu Xun once said that schools are the cradle for cultivating talents, and they are the first basic position for laying good moral character and cultural and scientific knowledge for the growth of students and their future careers. So your sentence should be changed to teach people to learn and educate people to succeed. ”
You Cunxi nodded and smiled: "I agree with you, but reading is the easiest and fastest way to succeed, how is it wrong for schools to educate students to succeed in the simplest and fastest way?"
Ye Huai'an knocked on the table and said with a smile: "Wrong again, what do you think success is? Studying in a good university and then having a good job? Is that called success? I don't think so, isn't it considered success for an athlete to give up study, insist on exercising, and win glory for the country? Isn't it considered success for a star actor to be successful in filming, and entertaining others in the wind and sun? The purpose of the school is not to teach people the easiest and fastest way to succeed, and to import people with high scores and excellent grades to the society! But to teach people the most capable and most likely way to succeed, to tap their talents, and to achieve success in various aspects! ”
"The world-renowned educator Edward Courter has shown through research that everyone has their own unique talent, which cannot be imitated by others, but many people do not discover it. So what are the test scores? What are they? How many talents are wasted for society every year? Even when they die, they don't realize that they are actually very talented people! So this is a failure of school, they don't find the talent of others, they just blindly take exams, and the reward is to choose a layer of people among all as successful people, as for the others? Hehe, no one looks at them. ”
What does a teacher do? Zhang Juzheng once told Ye Huai'an that as an emperor, the extent to which an emperor can grow has little to do with the teacher, otherwise why would there be so many emperors killing teachers? The teacher only plays a leading role in pulling your students' real talents, and what students can fully display with the help of the teacher is success! Therefore, the grades cannot represent the quality of any student, nor can we see what any student's talent is, let alone know whether the student will succeed in the future!
You Cunxi put away his smile and leaned back on the chair, picked up the pen in his hand and kept tapping on the tabletop, and said calmly after Ye Huai'an finished speaking: "What you said is very reasonable, I have heard many such theories abroad, and I also accept such statements, but the national conditions are different, and the methods of education are also different." Do parents want to listen to all that, who wants to give up exams to find their talents?"
Ye Huai'an said without giving in: "Don't take incompetence as an excuse, what national conditions are different? What is the difference between everyone and people? It's not that parents don't want to listen, but educators don't do enough! In the three years of high school, a three years when students and parents are worried and afraid, how many parents go from being full of hope to finally just want to finish high school? Will these parents be unwilling to listen? No! They are very willing, and even the slightest possibility they hope that their children can succeed in other aspects!"
Ye Huai'an's tone was a little excited, in fact, when the children could not see the road to success, parents were also confused, many of them did not receive a high level of education, and could not show their children the way! Because of this, I don't know how many liar schools have been bred, they take advantage of the fact that parents want to see hope to defraud them of their money, but in the end they did not bring them real hope, for Ye Huai'an, these people are a shame in the education world.
"Hmph, what a big breath! Looking for you to say that, we are all incompetent as teachers?" You Cunxi asked with a cold snort.
"Hehe, not all. Ye Huaian said unceremoniously.
You Cunxi stared at Ye Huai'an's eyes for a long time, and suddenly laughed and said, "Hahaha! I have long heard that Lao Zhang has a talented student, I think it's you, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation! Tell me, what do you want to do?"
