The government work report mentioned that the school bus safety management should be strengthened to ensure the safety of children. This is the first time that the school bus safety management issue has been written into the government work report.
Since the school bus accident in Gansu in 2011, school bus safety has become a hot topic in society. Premier Wen Jiabao personally urged that in just over a month, the "School Bus Safety Regulations (Draft)" was released for comments.
In addition to the School Bus Safety Regulations (Draft), documents related to school buses are currently being developed. On March 6, Minister of Education Yuan Guiren revealed that the relevant departments have already drafted the regulations on school bus funding, which will soon be introduced. It is understood that the NDRC is taking the lead in drafting documents, including the definition of the distribution of powers of various units, as well as measures for financial security. The school bus standard documents also carried out the first round of industry comments before the Spring Festival.
School bus safety issues are related to students' right to life and involve many deep-seated education issues. After the school bus safety enters the government work report, it is expected to attract more attention to this issue.
The school bus safety issue was also first written into the work of the Ministry of Education in 2012. The Ministry of Education will establish a school bus system in 2012 and actively cooperate with the implementation of the School Bus Safety Regulations.
Dialogue: Dr. Ma Leijun, Center for Policy Studies, Central Academy of Sciences
Three major problems in school bus accident exposure education
Reporter: What do you think is the main reason for the frequent occurrence of school bus safety problems in China?
Ma Leijun: On the issue of school bus, there are six shortcomings in China: one lack of legislative guarantees; two lack of specialized management institutions, which cause mutual dereliction between departments; three lack of quality standards; four lack of detailed operational procedures, such as this point in Japan It is stipulated that one school bus is equipped with two kindergarten teachers. The United States stipulates that the principal cannot operate the school bus. France stipulates that drivers must hold special certificates for employment; five lack of funds guarantee; and six lack special rights. From a deeper level, the school bus problem has exposed three educational problems in China: from the perspective of urban development, due to the uneven development of compulsory education, the problem of school selection is serious, children are often far-reaching; from rural and remote areas, empty nest schools appear in many places. The school of sparrows has caused the withdrawal point and serious school, which has aggravated the demand for school buses. Thirdly, there is a shortage of preschool education. Especially in rural areas, parents have to send their children to kindergartens far away.
Try not to board in the first nine years of development planning
Reporter: There are two ways to solve the problem of rural students going to school. One is to build a boarding school, and the other is to open a school bus.
Ma Leijun: In the stage of compulsory education, you can try not to engage in boarding. We are doing a survey on the development of innovative talents and found that family education has an important impact on children's success.
Reporter: There is usually a public transportation system in the city. Is it still necessary to develop a school bus?
Ma Leijun: According to the specific situation of the local area, see if the bus is developed enough. Where the bus is perfect, the significance of developing a school bus is relatively small. I don't think you should do anything to add to the icing on the cake. But I think the school bus is definitely better than the bus. Because in the compulsory education stage, many children may not be able to go to school by themselves, they need parents to pick up and transfer, which increases the burden on parents. In fact, there is a statistic in the United States that each additional school bus can reduce 36 private cars.
It’s hard to make a big investment in the country.
Reporter: Should the school bus be free to students?
Ma Leijun: In the future development goals, school buses must be included in the basic public education system, and all free of charge. At present, it is very difficult for the country to make a big package. If the government does not pay the bill, then whether it is entrusted to the bus company or the school bus company to operate, the company must have a return on interest. Compared with public transport, school bus vehicles have high requirements and low usage rates, so the economic cost is much higher than that of public transport. The government should provide certain subsidies.
At present, the gap in funding is very large. It depends on whether the government is determined to take this as a political task, and whether there will be special funds for school buses. For example, in the United States, the investment in school buses is 500 US dollars / person / year, and China's per capita education funds are only a few hundred dollars.
The key to safety regulations depends on how to implement them.
Reporter: Do you have any comments or suggestions on the School Bus Safety Regulations (Draft)?
Ma Leijun: I participated in the preliminary research and opinions collection. The regulations are programmatic documents, and the key is how to implement them. I have three concerns. Apart from the funding guarantee, it is how to spend the three-year transition period. The government cannot simply push things to the society. In addition, I am very worried about whether the concept of school bus responsibility can be very popular. Some principals told me that unless they are forced to order, they will not open without a school bus, because there is a risk when they are opened.
Return visit: "If there are more children, I will send him to school every day."
At 10 o'clock on the evening of March 1, there was a loud noise on the other side of the phone. Wei Jilong said: "I am outside, I am going to buy a ticket to go home. My father is not working. I have to go back and take care of him."
Wei Jilong was 30 years old in 2012 and used to be a father. On November 24, 2011, a traffic accident occurred in the school bus of Xiaoning Kindergarten in Zhengning County, Gansu Province. There were 64 vehicles in 9 schools. After retrograde, they hit heavy trucks, including 21 drivers, teachers and children. Wei Jilong, a 5-year-old son, Wei Lei, died after being injured. Wei Jilong’s father fell ill and could not afford to sleep. It has become more serious recently.
On December 8, the school bus accident in the past two months, Wei Jilong returned to Shenzhen from his hometown and continued to work in the hotel. He and Wei Lei’s mother actually broke up. Regarding the future, he said that he has not planned yet. "Mom has been urging me to go home to find someone to marry, and then to have children, but I don't have that mind yet."
This time, the idea of ​​Wei Jilong has changed. "I used to think that a child would be fine. Now I think I should have two." "If there are children, I will send him to school every day." Now I can't talk to my son. He often calls his mother. My mother told him that the children in the car accident, some lost their legs, and now life is very poor, and some still cry in the middle of the night. Every time I heard this, I remembered my son, and Wei Jilong wanted to cry.
Open Wei Jilong's Weibo page, showing the name and photo of his son Wei Lei. On the evening of January 5, Wei Jilong thought of his son, and issued two microblogs in succession: 19:52. When I thought of my son, my heart was like a knife. I was in a bad mood and didn't want to do anything; 20:01, "Actually, I hate you, didn't bring my son..."
In December 2011, he changed his signature twice to "everything is like a dream." Losing his son’s pain, Wei Jilong often feels embarrassed. He said, "I know that someone can understand my pain, but no one can share it."
After the death of his son, once there was news about the school bus on the Internet, Wei Jilong would open the browse. When he saw the government’s statement that the school bus safety regulations should be formulated, his first reaction was: “If it is earlier, Wei Lei will not leave me. "Go," he hopes that the government can protect the safety of children in many ways. "It is not too late to make up for it."
Beijing Fall: End of the trial after the Gansu accident
The school bus was originally a new idea of ​​the Beijing Municipal Traffic Commission's 2011 blocking policy. In 2011, Beijing proposed to actively develop the car service system for primary and secondary schools, and gradually solve the problem of parents driving and picking up children to go to school to ease the traffic congestion around primary and secondary schools during the morning and evening peak hours.
In May 2011, Chaoyang District took the lead in launching a pilot school bus in the city. The main content of the pilot is: the government organizes the bidding to produce the carrier, grants financial subsidies, and correspondingly reduces the fares paid by the students.
After the school bus accident in Zhengning, Gansu Province in November 2011, the school bus promotion plan in Beijing began to be cautious. After the school bus trial in the first semester of Chaoyang District, 9 pilot schools received notification from the Education Commission and the pilot program was stopped.
According to the logistics staff of Chen Jinglun Middle School Network Police Branch, the school bus is now a rental bus, and each student is charged 500 yuan per month. According to the person, when the subsidy is piloted in the district, each person only charges 10 yuan per day.
The person said that after the end of the pilot, "because some parents have requirements, they hope to continue to take the school bus, so the school will continue to operate, but will communicate with these parents before adjusting the price."
