"Shenzhen is expected to implement 12 years of compulsory education, with free high school"? Official response
Recently, there have been rumors online stating that "Shenzhen is expected to implement 12 years of compulsory education, and high school will be free in Shenzhen." The heated discussion reflects netizens' concerns about the suggestion in Shenzhen's 14th Five-Year Plan to "steadily expand the scope of free education and explore extending the years of compulsory education." In response, a reporter verified this with the Shenzhen Municipal Education Bureau as a parent, and the bureau's staff emphasized that any changes to relevant policies in Shenzhen must be based on official documents from the national education administrative department.
