On September 27, the Ministry of Education held a press conference to introduce the results of my country's education reform and development since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. Guo Peng, director of the Finance Department of the Ministry of Education, introduced that he insisted on improving the salary and benefits of teachers as the first priority guarantee in the financial education expenditure. Among the expenses, the highest proportion of the expenses of faculty and staff, the key points of education expenditure expenditure Gradually shifted from investing in things to more investment.

Guo Peng said that national fiscal education expenditure accounted for 4%of GDP, which is the first time in my country to achieve it in 2012 and consolidate for 10 consecutive years. In the past ten years, especially since the epidemic, the downward pressure on my country's economic downlink has increased year by year, and the contradiction between fiscal revenue and expenditure is very prominent, but the financial investment in education has always insisted on increasing only year by year.

He revealed that the cumulative expenditure of national fiscal education for ten years was 33.5 trillion yuan, an average annual growth of 9.4%, which was higher than the average annual nominal increase (8.9%) and the average annual increase in the annual income of general public budgets (6.9%). Although this proportion is high or low in different years, it has never been lower than 4%. The more important significance is that 4%drive the base of education input to continue to increase. Whether it is total investment, or financial, general public budgets, non -finance and other channels for education, it has doubled in ten years.

After ten years of hard work, the basic pattern of education investment base is: total investment exceeds 5 trillion yuan, close to 6 trillion yuan; fiscality exceeds 4 trillion yuan, close to 5 trillion yuan; general public budget exceeds 3 trillion yuan, general public budget exceeds 3 trillion yuan, and general public budgets exceed 3 trillion yuan, and general public budgets exceed 3 trillion yuan. It is close to 4 trillion yuan; non -fiscality exceeds 10 trillion yuan. The base is large, which means that the material foundation that guarantees the development of education is thicker. It can also be said that with the comprehensive completion of the well -off society in my country, the "family bottom" of education is also a well -off "family bottom."

"While the total amount of education funding has doubled, the level of extension of the average student has also achieved a historic leap, and the level of financial security has increased significantly." Guo Peng said that in 2021 , Kindergarten 9506 yuan, 12381 yuan for ordinary primary schools, 17,772 yuan for ordinary junior high schools, 18,809 yuan for ordinary high schools, 17095 yuan for secondary vocational schools, and 22586 yuan for ordinary colleges and universities, which were 3.3 times, 2.2 times, 2.5 times, 2.1 in 2011 in 2011, respectively Times, 1.5 times.

Guo Peng also said that the average annual growth of education for education was 12.6%, the highest increase in each education stage and the fastest growth rate; the average annual elementary school increased by 8.3%; the average year of ordinary junior high schools increased by 8.9%; the average annual increase of ordinary high schools increased by 9.8 an average annual growth of 9.8 %, The increase is second only to kindergarten, and the expenditure level is second only to ordinary universities; secondary vocational schools have an average annual increase of 7.9%; although ordinary universities have the lowest annual growth rate and 4.1%, the expenditure level is the highest, exceeding 20,000 yuan.
