雨露均沾 | OC班的重新分配(组图)

2024-03-21 来源: 腔调阿朱 原文链接 评论2条

从明年开始,悉尼有9所公立小学新增加了OC班(Opportunity classes),新州政府试图减轻公立学校过度拥挤的状况,并将招生转移到人口相对较少的学校。这些变化意味着,从2025年起,包括Woollahra Public和Artarmon Public在内的公立小学将取消或减小OC班,而Lindfield East Public, Brookvale Public 和 Maroubra Junction Public等公立小学将为学术上有天赋的学生增加新的OC班。

新南威尔士州教育部长Prue Car表示,政府正在扩大分配给更多学校的OC名额,同时让兄弟姐妹就读同一所学校更方便。Car说:“这些新的分配也将减少目前有OC班的学校对移动教室(demountables)的依赖,在这些学校,由于学校招生人数的限制,往往无法接受家庭里的弟弟妹妹入学。被选中的学校更有可能招收学区之外的学生入学。”

总的来说,OC班招生总人数仍然将保持在1840人,但开设OC班的学校数量将增加到87所,其中包括新增加的悉尼的9所学校和在南部高地Moss Vale的1所公立小学。

OC班的设置旨在培养新州最聪明的五年级和六年级学生,而许多家长认为,考入OC班是进精英中学的跳板。在过去的十年里,对OC班的需求飙升,今年有15300名申请者竞争1840人的OC班名额。随着悉尼数百所私人补习学校推广报考OC班准备强化课程,申请人数不断增加,许多补习社为小学生提供模拟入学考试课程,每学期收费600澳元。

根据新的变化, Blacktown West, Brookvale, Lindfield East, Maroubra Junction, Miranda, Penrith, St Clair, Wahroonga 和 Toongabbie 公立小学将新增加一个15名学生的OC班。目前其中一些学校的入学率低于其招生上限的70%。

Balgowlah Heights, Blacktown South, Caringbah North, Colyton和Kingswood公立小学的OC班招生人数将减少一半。开设OC班已愈几十年的Artarmon和Woollahra这两所公立小学,每年的OC招收人数将从60人减少到30人。

North Nowra的Illaroo Road Public School是Shoalhaven地区唯一一所提供OC班的小学,其招生人数也将减少一半,降至15人。新南威尔士州教育部表示,这所学校OC班过去的申请人数一直在稳步下降,去年甚至都没有招满。Illaroo Road Public School的一些OC班学生,甚至从Shellharbour和 Kangaroo Valley远道来上学,所以这次将在南部高地的Moss Vale Public School开设一个新的OC班。

Primary Principals Association主席Robyn Evans说,这一消息对校长们来说是一个惊喜。“新增加OC班的设计是为了帮助重新分配一些OC班名额,特别是那些已经达到或接近饱和的学校,同时也允许家庭里兄弟姐妹能在学区外入学。”

天才儿童教育专家Jae Jung表示,对于那些有长期的计划将孩子送到目前成熟有OC班小学的父母,这样的变化带来后果不小。 他说:“它确实为生活在某些地区的家庭创造了更多的机会,但对于那些已经招收大量OC班学生的小学来说,这将被视为一个巨大的损失。这里面会有赢家和输家。”

Australian Tutoring Association首席执行官Mohan Dhall表示,鉴于对OC班的需求,政府要么寻求扩大更多学校的机会,要么考虑缩减规模,“在所有学校加大对高潜力和资优教育的投资”。“家庭也会担心没有提前很长时间提醒这样的变化。 现实是,改变之后仍然只有1840个OC班名额和每年上万名的申请者。”

Dhall表示,作为一种“基于证据的分流”方式,政府应该考虑对所有学生进行普遍测试,以作为OC班或者天才班的招生方式,这也会消除(单一考试)竞争的因素,”他说。

2018年,新南威尔士州教育部对新州公立精英学校的一项重大审查发现,来自社会经济家庭背景较低的学生、土著学生、残疾学生以及来自乡村和偏远地区的学生,其申请较少。去年推出了一项新的公平模式,为弱势背景学生预留20%的OC班招收名额,今年,将为来自社会经济家庭背景较低的学生提供约350个OC班提前录取名额。

上周教育部长Car表示,政府还将持续加强关注,所有学校都提供高潜力和资优教育项目。新州的教育高潜力学生培养项目于2021年首次推出,旨在培养未考入OC班和精英中学的那些有才华的学生。新州教育部的一位发言人表示,目前只有一半的公立小学有这样的课程,这些课程通常涉及扩展或强化课程,课堂分组或快班课程。发言人说:“政府现正检讨高潜能及资优教育政策,并会在今年稍后提供最新资料。”

Lindfield East Public School的校长Diane Read说,她很高兴她所在的小学被选中,从2025年开始开设OC班,她说这将有助于避免五年级的优秀学生大批流失。她说:“每年,我们四年级学生里有一半人参加OC入学选拔考试。本校开设OC班将有助于把好学生们留住。”

对于那些打算送孩子进OC班的家庭来说,这真是一个打击啊!他们得重新考虑其他方案了。
