SIP authorities hosted a symposium on Sept 9, one day before the Chinese Teachers’ Day, when the participating officials extended festival greetings to all the educators in SIP and exchanged opinions on education development with the participants from a number of local educational institutions. 

 

It is learnt that schools in SIP have pulled off great successes in faculty development and introduction of scientific and diversified teaching modes. SIP students have demonstrated excellent performance in entrance examinations for senior high schools and higher education institutions for many consecutive years. Moreover, nearly every school offers characteristic education programs such as those on football and folk art in the hope of helping their students expand their knowledge and skills. 

Wu Qingwen, member of the Standing Committee of CPC Suzhou Committee and secretary of SIP Party Working Committee, spoke at the event, urging related departments to attach great importance to education development and encouraging educational institutions to share educational resources and reciprocal advantages while pursuing differential development.
