to winter school for 10 days, 30 days in summer school terms, plus the usual Mathematical Olympiad and English classes, tutoring the son of Ms Wu class year in the cost of at least 16,500 ~ 18,110 yuan.

according to official data released by Beijing Municipal Bureau of Statistics: 2009 Beijing urban residents was 26,738 yuan per capita disposable income, this calculation, the son of Ms Wu spent each year on the cost of extra-curricular class accounted for an ordinary Beijing annual disposable income of residents of 67.7% to 61.7%.

province of big money to use the "courage" to Hua Xiaoqian

favorable with parents, school training costs are also rising.

media reports, this year school education and training institutions in Guangzhou a few of their courses at different levels of price increases, price increases of 10% to 20%, Shanghai, Qingdao, also experienced a similar situation.

press interview in Beijing in early 2005, a third-grade students a semester based on class fees Mathematical Olympiad yuan in 1000, and now, a similar program has risen to 2,000 yuan.

tuition Dazhao Gun children to prices, not only failed to reduce the number of enrollment, but also Dazhao Gun children to rise.

extra-curricular training for primary and secondary stock market is completely reveals the characteristics of bull: do not buy or buy up.

economy-related events will follow this principle: no input no output, the larger the investment is for the greater output.

So, parents keep their children's extracurricular additional training costs, the pursuit of what kind of return?

"We are now spending their children to cram a small rise is the beginning for the future." Ms Wu said Beijing's focus on middle school challenges students, the exam is Mathematical Olympiad and the English, if the child can be with their own capable admitted to an ideal school, school choice can save a lot fee.

over the past two years have introduced many policies to curb school choice, but the objective fact is that the introduction of the policy and school choice is not fundamentally curb the wind, but increased the difficulty of parents to school choice. Therefore, "if not on merit admitted to good schools, that time may not be able to spend money to go out." Many parents are beginning a small rise that mentality.

"want to spend money to spend does not go out" to some people will think of to improve chips.

to Beijing, for example, the choice fees a few years ago 3 million or less in general, has now gone up "orgy of."

Beijing, Ms. Lee has been on the high school kids, I think back to the beginning of a small rise now "back hair cool." Lee eventually spent 11 million, her daughter on the outskirts of Beijing, a key middle school. According to Ms. Li introduced her to spend the money is not the most.

are behind the possible tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands or even tens of million "big money" than the front, the immediate costs of training appear is the "little money", so, parents themselves mockery: " spirit with the province to Hua Xiaoqian lot of money, and my heart is not so uncomfortable. "

So, parents will fly it a lot a lot of money training market. The official website of Beijing Municipal Bureau of Statistics show that in 2009 the average household in Beijing's urban residents per capita in the "training" expenses on this one higher than in 2008 was 73.4%.

such "input" make primary and secondary schools around the training market fast, and in 2010, the two extra-curricular training to primary and secondary industry, private training institutions based in the U.S. Nasdaq market, according to Analysis of the industry after the successful financing, within at least the next decade they will have a stable development.

school the child into the training market undercurrent

fact, not every parent can "think big, small start", most parents are in the education market is driving force of a Unit, where a walk, walk there, rather passive.

Wuhan Ms. Zou said: "We must be on some classes, some classes are suggested to be on the teacher."

Ms. Wang's daughter in Fengtai District of Beijing Normal subsidiary first grade school, she introduced her daughter is now in every school math test, the last question is Mathematical Olympiad problems.

one occasion, his daughter over the weekend had just learned in class, extracurricular Mathematical Olympiad a question, a few days This question appeared in the school examination papers.

a school education and training agency staff to reporters, they where about 10% to 15% of teachers in primary and secondary school teacher, "only here in our weekend classes to in school than they can earn more. "

learning and thinking, president Cao Yundong International Education Group introduced the teachers to teach them where the minimum wage is 130 yuan per hour, slightly slightly better experience, or taught lesson fee to 200 yuan per hour . Teachers on their day that is usually 6 hours.

calculated in accordance with the price tag, one in primary and secondary school teachers to teach in the training institutions, a weekend can earn 2,400 yuan, will be able to earn about 10,000 yuan a month, one year can earn about 10 million.

such income tempting it?

No wonder the teacher suggested students should be reported to the outside class; no wonder that some teachers will completely take care of those lessons did not attend cram school students.

part of the teacher in school has become an undercurrent, is pushing into the off-campus students and parents making up the force.

students make up classes in the school, the teacher puts in a lot in school, parents flock to school counseling class money, to use outside school examination questions of remedial classes, schools outside the selection contest to see the certificate ... ... < / p>

-school and school education, the balance of power has been changing.

the face of these, one parent said: "The tutoring classes has become dinner, normal school education into a dessert, too strange!"
