Commentary: The state's policies on children's education still require comprehensive support across multiple dimensions

This article provides an in-depth exploration of the current state and potential issues surrounding the "Double Reduction" policy and the regulation of minors' online activities. The author argues that simply banning extracurricular tutoring and games constitutes a "blocking" approach rather than a "guiding" one. While this may temporarily reduce ineffective competition, it fails to address the fundamental contradictions of students lacking meaningful leisure activities and parents facing significant child-rearing pressures. In fact, such measures could even foster black markets or lead players to circumvent regulations. The article points out that the core of the policy should be to channel students' time toward more practically meaningful areas, suggesting that the proportion of humanities courses—such as physical education, arts, and social practice—be increased to replace traditional problem-solving drills. However, implementing such reforms faces challenges, including uneven distribution of school resources, the difficulty of implementing flexible class scheduling, and educational equity in remote regions. Additionally, policy adjustments have caused a significant shock to the education and training industry, affecting investor confidence. To address this, the author recommends adopting a "gradual rollout" strategy, piloting the changes first in regions with abundant educational resources and allowing the industry a sufficient period to adapt and transform, thereby balancing policy implementation with socioeconomic stability.
