Beginning September 1, 2007, all primary and secondary school students across the country will be required to dance the school group dance every day during recess and extracurricular group exercise time. Among them, the waltz, in which boys and girls hold hands***, will be the designated dance for high school students.
Yang Guiren, director of the Department of Physical Education, Health and Arts Education at the Ministry of Education, said that students dancing in a group is a normal interaction between classmates. We have made some considerations in this regard during the creation of the group dance. When students dance in a group, they are usually in groups of four, and everyone rotates at all times. The other aspect is how we can provide the right guidance, we used to be separate schools for boys and girls, and I'm afraid that this I think is an unhealthy understanding of our education itself.
Yesterday, the provincial Department of Education, Sports, Health and Arts Division, said June 5 received a document issued by the Ministry of Education, is currently studying the specific implementation of the approach, this week the document will be issued to the province, the Department of Education will be in accordance with the Ministry of Education's notice of the deployment of the requirements of the local municipalities to conscientiously implement the implementation of the document. It is understood that today, the Ministry of Education will hold a press conference to detail the content of the project as well as the later training arrangements.
