• The central bank announces eased financing rules for rental of affordable homes.

Here’s what you need to know about China in the past 24 hours 

中国经济要闻

China will enhance its regulation of off-campus tutoring by stepping up legislation and enhancing supervision, said the Ministry of Education (MOE) in its 2022 work plan released on Tuesday.

The top education authority pledged to give priority in pushing forward “double-reduction”, as China enters the vital phase of implementing the policies, which were released last year to alleviate the pressure of primary and middle school students.

The plan has laid out measures mainly targeting “invisible” curriculum-based tutoring, unregulated non-curriculum-based tutoring and tutoring offered to senior high school students, as most of the off-campus curriculum-based tutoring organisation have shut down last year.

The ministry will conduct regular inspections on national holidays, at weekends, as well as in winter and summer vacations. Any off-campus tutoring activities featuring curriculum subjects during these periods will be shut down, said the ministry.

2022年“双减”工作怎么推进？

2月8日，教育部公布了2022年工作要点，共涉及6大类35个要点，其中落实教育优先发展战略地位、深入推进“双减”和推进义务教育优质均衡发展等成为大家关注的焦点。教育部列出了10项重点任务，其中就有6项与校外培训治理直接相关。

“双减”进入攻坚之年，在不少地方的学科类校外培训机构已100%压减的情况下，狙击“地下”学科类培训、治理非学科类培训和高中培训将成为重点和难点。

教育部要求，要着力巩固学科类培训机构压减成果，在法定节假日、休息日、寒暑假指导各地开展常态巡查、坚决关停。加大对隐形变异培训查处力度，开展专项治理。

教育部提出，要指导各地对非学科类培训机构，区分体育、文化艺术、科技等类别，抓紧明确主管部门，体现公益属性，实现常态化监管，防止出现新的野蛮生长。

在2022年工作要点中，教育部还提出，要加快发展学前教育、普通高中教育和特殊教育，推进高水平教育对外开放，促进高校毕业生更加充分更高质量就业，继续推进义务教育优质均衡发展等。
