农村义务教育乱收费的根源、危害及治理——以湖北省Y县“一费制”执行情况为例

Root Cause, Harm and Management of the Random Fee Collection in the Rural Compul sory Education ——Taking the Implementation of One Fee System in Y County of Hu bei Province

2004年秋季,所有义务教育阶段的学校都已实施“一费制”。从提前实施“一费制”的部分地区来看,“一费制”实施后义务教育乱收费现象依然存在,其根源在于国家的义务教育投资体制不能为学校提供足够的教育经费。乱收费加重了学生家庭的经济负担,损害了学校的形象,不利于教育作用的发挥。治理农村义务教育乱收费,需要加大中央和省级政府对义务教育的转移支付力度,而这需要高层政府对财政支出的范围重新加以界定。

In the autumn of 2004 all the schools of compulsory educationhave carried out the One Fee System. Judging from the areas where the One Fee System was put into practice a little bit earlier, we can find the random f ee collection still exists despite the One Fee System and the root cause lies in the fact that the country can＇t provide hough educational fees by its compulsory educational investment system. The random fee collection has added to theeconomic burden of students＇ families and harmed the image of schools, thus unfavourahle to the role play of education. To tackle the problem of random fee collection in the rural areas, both the central government and the provincial government should increase the transfer payment for the compulsory education, which requires the government at the higher level to redefine the extent of the financial expenditure.
