Motto is the spirit and style of the school, which includes the spiritual pursuit and practical achievements of the whole school, as well as the code of conduct that teachers and students should follow, and then puts forward requirements at the two levels of teachers and students, inherits tradition and innovates. Physical health is the aim of running a school, which embodies Yan's educational thought of "people-oriented" and transforming the countryside when he founded the school: running a school is for the prosperity of people's livelihood, for the prosperity of society, for caring for all beings and for the fairness of education. At the student level, it is required to learn for the people, use their own abilities and wisdom to help others and benefit the society. This will not only benefit others, but also make your life more brilliant. Good health stems from Dayu's people-oriented thought. Book Mo Yu: "Virtue, Use, Benefit and Harmony". What is said is the virtue of integrity, that is, governing the people by yourself; Use it for the people, prosper it for the people, prosper it for the people, prosper it for the disadvantages; Being generous to the people makes people's livelihood gentle and generous, so we should support the people. In today's society, education is the foundation of people's livelihood, and the opportunity to receive education determines the basis for citizens to stand on the society; Employment is the source of people's livelihood, and the level of education determines the quality of national survival and development. Therefore, the mission of the school must be to face the society, expand the opportunities for education, face the countryside, improve the education level of civilians and promote social development. For educators themselves, students are student-oriented and care about their vocational skills and physical and mental health. On the other hand, the staff who care about cultivating students, while promoting the cause of the school, fully ensure the synchronous growth of the welfare level of the staff. A gentleman pays attention to virtue, has profound moral cultivation and noble conduct, and is generous to others. There are two levels of virtue: teachers have virtue, students have virtue, and learning both ability and morality is great wisdom; Sima Guang's classification of talents in "Learning from the Same Experience" is also very enlightening: "Only those who have talent and virtue are handsome." "Virtue is called a saint, and death with virtue is called a fool; Desheng is called a' gentleman', and only winning talent is called a' villain'. "Wugang Normal School is the cradle of teachers. Teachers and students can only undertake the mission of running a school if they learn to be teachers and behave themselves.
