Abstract

Reducing pressure has become a major topic for recent Chinese education. New policies aimed to further relieve students from schoolwork burden were enacted and implemented in 2021. After one year of implementation, the result is yet to be calculated. Contrary to traditional Chinese education ideologies, the policy imposes uniform and strict regulations on school actions. Some of the controversial terms stated in the policy may obstruct students from improving grades with extensive extra effort. Subsequently, school conditions are different and the policy is confronted with potential reluctance. The research mainly adopts questionnaire studies on primary school students in Wuxi, China. The result has revealed the uneven implementation of the regulation among different schools and the common negligence of high-grade students in pressure-reduction activities. Further, from students’ responses, it is suggested that school actions require specified regulations.
