Recently, there have been rumors on the internet that "teachers are fully master's degree holders, and graduates with bachelor's degrees are no longer able to enter teaching positions" and "teachers need to be prepared for unemployment". After verification with relevant departments of the Ministry of Education, the above statements are not true,Hereby clarify as follows:

The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council have issued the "Opinions on Promoting the Spirit of Educators and Strengthening the Construction of a High quality and Professional Teacher Team in the New Era", proposing to strengthen the training of high-level teachers, focusing on cultivating undergraduate and above level teachers for kindergartens and primary schools, and gradually realizing the cultivation of secondary school teachers mainly at the graduate level. The misinterpretation of "key training" and "gradual implementation" as mandatory regulations aimed at all and immediately implemented is a typical generalization, and relevant policy documents have never made provisions for "comprehensive master's degree" or "undergraduate students are not allowed to enter teaching positions".

Six InstitutionsAffiliated Normal UniversityThe implementation of undergraduate and graduate education for publicly funded normal students, as well as the reform and exploration of departmental normal universities, does not involve other normal universities.
