It's school season again, and at this time of year, a group of parents are hesitant.
It is difficult to be a citizen of Beijing. With a house and a hukou, it is basically impossible to go to school across districts.
Two days ago, a friend from Beijing called me to ask about school choice, her family lives in Shunyi and her hukou is also in Shunyi, but non-foreigners can't go to international schools, and other schools don't think they are suitable for children, so they want to send their baby to Chaoyang to study, but they can't.
I said, why not? Renting a house allows you to apply for admission, and many non-Beijing nationals do this.
She said that because she is a Beijing national. The admission policy of Beijing nationality is that you must have a house in Chaoyang to apply for school, and you have no plan or financial resources to buy a house in Chaoyang for your children's schooling.
I slammed my head, oh! She is a Beijing national.
Recently, there are always too many non-Beijing parents who are anxious about how to let their children enter a better school, so that I almost forget that Beijing nationality also has the trouble of Beijing nationality: if they don't buy a house, they can't even go out of the school district.
However, it is more difficult for non-Beijing nationals.
Although I can rent a house and buy a house, I still can't get into a good school; If you choose the public path, you can't even go to high school in Beijing...
The hukou is an insurmountable divide.
There is a mother in Xiaohongshu who is very anxious, and in September the child will go to junior high school, and there are only two ways for non-Beijing nationality to choose:
Either go back to the original place to roll (original Shandong Hell mode); Or stay in Beijing to study at an international school and go abroad to go to university in the future.
She learned that international schools are too expensive to attend. Prices increase year after year, and the cost performance may be the lowest in the world.
However, even if the price is not considered, the TOP level is not only expensive but also difficult to enter, not only to test the child's academic but also to see the parent's education and social background; Those who can enter casually will only brag, and checking the teachers and students on the Internet is not very good...
There are few options left.
She sighed about life, leading to countless people in the comment area to teach on the spot:
Some people wonder why she didn't get a Tianjin hukou earlier, knowing that the college entrance examination in her hometown of Shandong is so difficult? Tianjin is close to Beijing and has a low threshold for settling down, and I don't have enough education to rely on social security points (the pit is good and detailed in the next article), in the end, I still don't want to get it too much;
Some people suggested that she take her baby to Hainan to study, and stay in Beijing to slowly save points. If you are lucky enough to settle down and you can kill back, the only risk is that if you stay in Hainan for a long time, you will completely lose the confidence to compete with Haidian Niuwa;
Or stay in Beijing to study public and finish junior high school, have a public residence can take the high school entrance examination, but there is no way to go to high school normally——
After all, it is not an extraordinary child, and he entered Tsinghua directly at the age of 15, who cares where you have a household registration?
Puwa can only take the middle school entrance examination, and after completing the examination of the public international department, the tuition fee of 100,000 a year, gritting his teeth should still be affordable.
But this road also has pits, even if 300,000 years of high school, the annual tuition fee of studying in the United States is 40,000 or 50,000 US dollars, plus the living expenses are less than 500,000, what should I do then?
After talking about this, finally some people can't help but ask: Why do you have to stay in Beijing? The implication is that if you are poor and miserable, don't occupy a pit in Beijing, anxiety lies in Gao Pan, isn't this all your own fault?
The city is full of talents, and the parents who graduated from Qingbei have to fight hard for their children's education, and some even give up their jobs to focus on the cause of chicken babies, or commit to school to apply to become teachers.
As a parent, you have no money and can't give it away, how can you solve the problem of children's reading?
There is also a mother who jumped out and said, telling the landlord how hard can non-Beijing people fight for the education of the next generation?
When the child was three years old, she bought a school district house in Haidian to reserve resources.
In order to double insurance, I also went to a famous private primary school to become a teacher, and after the interview, I felt that Beijing Taiju was not friendly to foreign students, so I went to Shenzhen with my husband and their children. After settling in Shenzhen, he became a teacher in a public high school, and the school can solve the problem of children going to school.
In the end, she still did not choose school resources, but sent her baby to a better private primary school in Nanshan. Because in Shenzhen, I know that there are really many opportunities for children from other places...
This mother believes that "the child's further education should be the top priority in the family". You only considered going on to higher education in the 6th grade, maybe it's all your fault. Between words, he also expressed his sacrifice and dedication for the child's education, which is the correct posture for being a parent.
The landlord was a little ashamed, lamenting that the parents will be much easier for excellent children, in the end, they still dragged the children's hind legs...
I was dumbfounded.
However, I know that every year when I go to school for my children, there are always parents who are forced to apply for teachers at school, and they go to follow-up, but... Isn't this a helpless and absurd thing?
A friend of an investment bank executive resolutely resigned to take the teacher qualification certificate in order for his child to be able to read Niu Xiao, and applied to be hired as a teacher in a primary school;
There is also a father who gave up his original job to study hard for his children, and finally got his resume to work at a university, taking 1/3 of his previous salary in exchange for 12 years of consistent further education...
But even if my parents are open-minded, this road is fiercely competitive and more and more rolled.
The mother who applied to become a private teacher mentioned above finally chose to go south to Shenzhen, most likely not because of the Beijing school children's roll, but because Beijing was too curled as a parent, and in the end she was not satisfied with only getting a private offer.
If she holds the enrollment indicators of the middle three and Haidian six small schools, can she still give up Beijing? No.
Fighting for children to these schools is the ultimate goal of parents, but unfortunately most of them do not meet the standards.
First of all, at least a master's degree, and a teacher qualification certificate. Beijing Normal University, as the first in the country in education major, degree is definitely a plus, but you must also have a Beijing hukou, otherwise non-Beijing nationality or just a 985 Pushuo, may only flow to the fifth ring campus;
Because... The headquarters of Niu Xiao and Chao Middle School were occupied by Qingbei's parents early.
16 years ago, the heroine and screenwriter of "Tsinghua Night Talk", graduated from the State Key Laboratory of Intelligent Technology and Systems of Tsinghua University with a doctorate, and in order to solve the problem of children's schooling, she went to the People's Congress Affiliated Middle School to become a people's teacher.
In the first two years, I knew a girl from the literature department of Peking University, and it was not necessary to start taking the teaching certificate for a master's degree. Being a teacher is not sure, but waiting until raising a baby will definitely be useful, that's it.
This is not a few.
Smart students have long understood that the most difficult problem to solve in the next 10 years of life is the education of children, and there is no choice without preparation -
Two days ago, Peking University friends said goodbye online and moved to Hainan. I was ready to give birth only to find that I had no house and no hukou, and I wanted to continue my freelancing and wanted to get my child to go to school, so I could only leave Beijing...
However, in the past two years, the king of the Qingbei Scroll could not be rolled up in the imperial capital.
Doctors and gods all come to grab jobs, Google gods teach computers, Wharton alumni teach entrepreneurship, academic masters teach the history of Eastern and Western philosophy, non-Beijing masters, even if it is 211, 985, what about it, it has long been not much competitive...
I can only run to the deep middle school to apply for a teacher.
Ay.
Two days ago, the release of "Wen Xin Yiyan" was ridiculed by the whole network: GPT has been able to write college papers, why is our artificial intelligence like this bear?
I also had this confusion circling in my heart at that time, until I saw that the top students of famous schools had devoted themselves to the cause of education, and I understood that the generations of elites cultivated by famous schools for many years were all making screws for the next generation.
As for the development of science and technology, economic take-off, and winning the Nobel Prize, what is the tight?
The child's further education is the top priority in the family.
