For the sake of fairness, in universities and top junior and high schools in some big cities, class leaders are basically selected through enthusiastic registration and collective voting by students.

Of course, not every top middle and high school in a big city is like this.

According to Zhou Yu's college classmates who came from Shanghai, Beijing, or Huacheng, when they were in college, the election of class leaders was completely decided by the head teacher. Whoever the head teacher designated would be the leader, and if others wanted to be class leaders, they had to give gifts to the head teacher.

When Zhou Yu heard the news, he was stunned.

No, to be a class leader you have to give gifts?!

Is it necessary to be a cadre in this class? !

It's fine if you give gifts in order to become a class leader in college, but you have to know that being a class monitor, study committee member, or a class leader like a Youth League Committee member has its benefits, such as scholarships, places to join the party, etc.

But what was the purpose of giving gifts in order to become a class leader in junior high and high school? !

This is what Zhou Yu cannot understand the most.

However, Zhou Yu did not ask too many questions at that time. It was not until he became a teacher and a class teacher himself and understood the thoughts of some parents that he understood why his college classmates said that one had to give gifts to the class teacher to become a class leader.

Although there is only one year left, the basic configuration of class cadres is still indispensable, such as the most basic class monitor and the study committee member. The Youth League Committee can let the class monitor or the study committee member work part-time, and finally have a labor committee member in charge of hygiene, which will be basically the same.

As for the rest of the mess like propaganda committee members, literary and art clerks, and class representatives of various subjects, they are really unnecessary.

Thinking that it was only the last year, Zhou Yu might as well just randomly appoint individuals as class leaders based on their academic performance. However, when the time came, Zhou Yu changed his mind.

Zhou Yu did not directly appoint a student to be the class leader like other class teachers did. Instead, he announced to the students at this moment that the candidates for class leaders would be registered by the students themselves, and then everyone would vote.

When they heard Zhou Yu say this, the second batch of students from Class 3 (27) sitting below the podium were visibly stunned for a moment, and it was clear that they were unable to react to what their head teacher had said.

In a small place like Ruxu, the selection of class leaders has always been decided by the head teacher.

If the head teacher tells you to be the class monitor, then you are the class monitor. If the head teacher tells you to be the study committee member, then you are the study committee member.

If the head teacher says you can do it, then you can do it, even if you can't; if the head teacher says you can't do it, then you can't do it, even if you can.

As for what is a fair recommendation election?

Doesn't exist!

However, after three seconds of silence, the students below the podium began to whisper, and then the discussion became louder and louder, and the atmosphere became more and more heated.

Looking at the increasingly heated atmosphere below the podium, Zhou Yu did not say anything. Instead, he looked at them with a smile and allowed them to express themselves and discuss freely.

After waiting for a while, when Zhou Yu saw that the students below the podium were still discussing in a low voice, at most they would raise their heads from time to time to secretly look at the head teacher on the podium, but no one took the initiative to stand up, Zhou Yu did not feel impatient at all, but waited patiently.

Although this was a temporary decision, Zhou Yu's reason for doing so was not random or a sudden decision made on the spur of the moment.

What is the biggest difference between country kids and city kids?

Zhou Yu had been in Ruxu County for such a long time that he took out the students from Wuzhou Middle School and Ruxu No. 2 Middle School that he had taught in Ruxu County, and compared them with the students he had met in Jiangcheng City, and even the students from his own high school, Xiangcheng No. 1 Middle School.

Zhou Yu discovered that there was still a big difference between the students in these places and the students in the county town of Ruxu County or even in the rural areas.

As for what the difference is?

The deviation of educational resources? Learning atmosphere? Ideas? Vision?

Zhou Yu thought about it for a while and felt that all of the above actually existed.

If you compare the students in Ruxu County with those in big cities, you can clearly tell who are from small places and who are from big cities.

Because, not all of them, but at least many children from county towns or rural areas, when standing next to those children from the city, feel quite inferior unconsciously, and think that they are inherently inferior and "pale in comparison" to the children from the city.

How did this situation come about?

Zhou Yu believes that the main reason is the deviation of educational resources, and the inclination of educational resources caused by the concentration of educational resources in big cities ultimately affects the following reasons.

Vision? Learning atmosphere? Ideas?

If the roles were reversed and educational resources were tilted towards the children in Ruxu County, they would also be able to achieve the same results as the children in big cities.

But at this stage, Zhou Yu is unable to solve the problem of educational resources.

The unfair distribution of educational resources is a well-known fact and has been going on for a long time.

However, not everything has remained unchanged over the years.

It’s just that many people working in the education industry, such as Principal Lao Wang and Li Jianping, are doing their best to try to narrow the gap between county towns with scarce educational resources and those big cities.

Zhou Yu is unable to solve these problems for the time being.

The only thing Zhou Yu can solve is the problem at hand.

He felt that at least he could start from the basics, step by step.

For example, we can start by improving students' self-confidence.
