Look at the faculty.
Don't indulge in the number of special-grade teachers and district-level backbone teachers advertised by some schools. Some special-grade teachers, as school leaders, rarely attend classes, and their influence is not in the school. In some areas, the proportional distribution of the title of "backbone teacher" to schools is not enough to prove the quality of schools. Students and parents should pay more attention to the strength and reputation of front-line teachers. Therefore, parents may wish to ask more questions: "How many young teachers have special-grade teachers taught in several classes? How many front-line teachers with characteristics and personalities are there in the school? "
Second, look at practical activities.
Attach importance to practical activities in senior high schools. The high school stage is a critical period for students' thoughts to move from enlightenment to maturity. Even though the academic burden of high school will increase, a responsible school will never weaken students' practical exercise and spiritual experience. Many high schools offer rich and solid moral education courses and series of activities according to the age and ideological characteristics of students. Parents should see that the breadth, breadth, courage and development potential of students with rich practical experience far exceed that of their peers confined to the depths of classrooms and books. So parents might as well ask one more question: "How many places will your school take my children to leave footprints in three years of high school?"
Third, look at elective courses.
Some jobs can only be done by powerful high schools: the quantity, quality and originality of school-based courses and even elective courses other than national courses are important yardsticks to test the level of school teachers and the educational realm, while high schools with high admission rates in key universities have their own unique practices in hierarchical teaching and teaching students in accordance with their aptitude. Parents may wish to ask more questions: "Show me the list of elective courses in your school, and how much have you given?"
Fourth, look at the details of education.
Some details, which ordinary "secular" high schools can't do, are especially valuable: when students take the college entrance examination to beno. 1, some schools first think of not self-promotion and taking credit, but sending out public thank-you letters to tell the next level of the pyramid-the school where students are in junior high school and the teachers' joy of success, and subtly cultivate students' gratitude, instead of just putting gratitude in preaching; When students enter the third year of senior high school and fill in the additional test subjects for the college entrance examination, some schools, even if the number of applicants for biology and geography is as small as single digits, do their best to offer all the additional test subjects for students regardless of the cost, instead of hanging on to the slogan of "all for students" ... So parents may wish to ask one more question: "Are geography and biology two additional test subjects for the college entrance examination in your senior high school?"
Fifth, look at logistics support.
See the spirit for details. If the college entrance examination level of the two schools is equivalent, then parents can ask who makes up the undergraduate course rate on weekends, not the efficiency in the classroom; If the hardware level of the two schools is similar, then parents can make unannounced visits several times, and whose school gate will become a street with special snacks at noon-the quality of school canteens and even logistics support can be seen; If the charging standards of the two schools are the same, parents can ask another question: "Will you charge students for bicycle parking?"
