From 2023, Jinan junior high school graduation grade examination will adopt new examination subjects and examination methods. Among them, the most important adjustment is to unify the scores of moral education, intellectual education, physical education and health, and formulate the proportion of subject scores on this basis. Ideological and moral discipline will become the discipline with the highest score in the total score of the discipline, and the proportion will remain unchanged at 20%. The original proportion of Chinese, mathematics, English and science has increased. Among them, Chinese, mathematics and English each account for 15%, and science accounts for 10%.
Adjustment of the proportion of arts, physical education, health and other disciplines. The original proportion of arts, sports and health was 15%, but now it is adjusted to 15%. Among them, sports and health accounted for 60 points, art accounted for 50 points, accounting for 5% of the total score. Adjustment of physical and chemical subjects. Basic subjects such as physics and chemistry are adjusted to score evaluation.
From 2023, children's physical and chemical achievements will be evaluated by four grades: excellent, good, passing and failing. 90 points for physics and 60 points for chemistry. To this end, Jinan stipulates that excellent students in physics can get 90 points, good students can get 75 points, those who pass can get 60 points, and those who fail can get 0 points. The scores of chemistry subjects are divided into four grades: excellent, good, passing and failing.
The purpose of the new policy
All these are aimed at gradually promoting the further development of education reform in China. The new subject evaluation method is no longer limited to symbolic score evaluation, but will adopt the evaluation method combining symbolic score and grade score to advocate a comprehensive and diversified evaluation system. The adjustment of the proportion of subjects' grades and the inclusion of subjects such as art, physical education and health all reflect the importance attached by the school to quality education. Schools will pay more attention to the all-round development of children, rather than relying solely on excellent academic performance to obtain a degree.
