英語新聞丨嚴禁校內發生學生欺凌行為！教育部發布12個“嚴禁”

China has launched a nationwide campaign to address key issues such as campus bullying and excessive homework in basic education.

中國在全國范圍內開展了一場運動，以解決校園欺凌和作業過多等基礎教育中的關鍵問題。

According to a circular made public by the Ministry of Education on Tuesday, the campaign will continue until the end of this year and will primarily focus on regulating and rectifying problems related to safety breaches, disorder in daily management, and faculty misconduct.

根據教育部5月14日發布的通知，此次活動將持續到今年年底，主要針對安全底線失守、日常管理失序、師德師風失范等問題進行規范整治。

The circular also outlines a detailed list of 12 negative practices in basic education. These include encroachment on students' scheduled ten-minute breaks, neglect and tolerating of bullying behavior, and compulsory education institutions organizing various exams with the intention of selecting students.

通知還詳細列出了基礎教育中的12種不良行為。其中包括擠占學生“課間十分鐘”休息、漠視和縱容學生欺凌行為、義務教育階段學校組織以選拔生源為目的組織各類考試等。

Other prohibited activities include concealing or mishandling significant accidents, discriminating against students from vulnerable groups, subjecting students to corporal punishment, or engaging in unauthorized fee charging.

其他違禁活動包括隱瞞或不當處理重大事故、歧視弱勢群體學生、體罰學生或擅自收費。

The Ministry of Education has instructed local authorities to refine the negative list, conduct self-inspections, and implement corrective measures.

教育部已要求各級教育行政部門完善負面清單，開展自查，落實整改措施。

Additionally, the authorities will advance the campaign through various means, such as conducting research across different cities and counties, appointing inspectors to supervise schools, and providing professional guidance.

此外，有關部門還將通過各種方式推進這項活動，如在各市縣開展調研，任命督學對學校進行監督，并提供專業指導。

To ensure effective enforcement, a supervision and exposure mechanism, as well as a reputation evaluation system, will be established during the campaign.

為確保有效執行，活動期間將建立監督曝光機制和信譽評價體系。

China is home to nearly 500,000 primary and middle schools and kindergartens, with over 16 million teachers and 230 million students. Its education system faces disparities in urban-rural and regional development, leading to notable variations in school management levels across different areas.

中國有近50萬所中小學幼兒園、1600多萬名教師、2.3億名在校學生，城鄉、區域發展不平衡，不同地方學校管理水平存在較大差異。

Shi Zhongying, head of the Institute of Education at Tsinghua University, noted that the 12 prohibited behaviors outlined in the circular are not new policies or requirements, but rather a reminder of the minimum standards. The objective is to raise awareness and ensure that school faculty uphold and adhere to these standards.

清華大學教育研究院院長石中英指出，通知中列出的12項禁止行為并非新政策或新要求，而是以底線的形式予以重申提醒。其目的在于做到人人皆知，讓校長教師知敬畏、守底線。

The campaign will have a positive impact on improving the governance and capacity of basic education in the new era, as well as optimizing the overall ecosystem of the education sector, Shi said.

石中英說，這項活動將對提高新時期基礎教育的治理水平和能力，優化教育領域的整體生態系統產生積極影響。
