Chapter 443 College City(2/2)
This time, Chancellor Abner did not speak. The always taciturn Grand Bachelor Antoine asked: "Your territory has become so wealthy? Can so many people be separated from production and study full-time?"
Chancellor Abner and Sir Copperfield's eyes lit up. Grand Maester Antoine asked the question. He had been responsible for some mundane affairs in the Celestial Academy for many years, so he naturally knew the number of Celestial Academy students.
The most fundamental reason for not being able to go up is that everyone pricked up their ears and looked like they were listening.
"No." Sean shook his head and said, "There are indeed a lot of people with small assets in our territory, but they are limited to families with enough money. It is still impossible to get an adult out of work and study for several years.
, so what we are adopting now is not a self-financed system, but a publicly funded system. Their food and clothing expenses during their studies in the college are all the responsibility of the territory. For those who have excellent studies and poor families, the territory will also provide them with financial subsidies as appropriate.
After they complete their studies, they must obey the arrangements of the territory and work at designated positions for a corresponding number of years. Of course, their wages during the working period will not be less than theirs."
"The model that combines the territory and the college, and the collective cultivation of bachelors in the territory, is unheard of, an unprecedented model." President Abner murmured to himself, lowering his head to think about the feasibility of this model.
Compared to Chancellor Abner, who has a relatively pure temperament, Grand Bachelor Antoine is more worldly, so he is much less shocked by these intuitive numbers. He asked other aspects: "What about basic talent selection! Since it is an academy
, you can’t just start learning from literacy, right? Or have you gathered all the literate people in the territory together? If that’s the case, it’s not qualified to be called an academy!”
At the end of the sentence, the tone was obviously a bit harsh, and it was obvious that Grand Maester Antoine subconsciously believed that Sean was exaggerating the truth.
Sean was not annoyed, but patiently explained the basic strategy of the Yongye Army Leader, "Basic talent selection starts from an early age. Since the establishment of our Army Leader, we have been committed to promoting basic compulsory education.
, at the beginning, there was a lack of financial resources, and it was reluctantly implemented to the three-year compulsory education level. This can only maintain the new generation to reach the level of literacy and hyphenation. No matter how advanced it is, it will not be able to do anything. Now that the financial resources are abundant, it has been gradually changed to five years. In the future
Maybe we will consider nine-year compulsory education.”
"Three years of compulsory education? Five years of compulsory education? Nine years of compulsory education?" Everyone felt like they were listening to a book from heaven. They understood each word separately, but when they were put together, they had no idea what it meant. Although they had guesses in their hearts, they still couldn't understand it.
