Brief Introduction of Preschool Education Specialty in hunan international economics university
First, the professional construction background
(1) industry background
Preschool education is the basic stage of education. With the government and families attaching importance to preschool education, the existing public kindergartens are difficult to meet the demand, and the supply of kindergartens is in short supply. With the attention of the whole society to early education, the division of labor at this stage is becoming more and more detailed and the requirements are getting higher and higher. In order to meet the educational needs of children aged 0-3, specialized institutions such as infant education institutions and parenting education institutions have emerged in society. Preschool education for children aged 3-6 is expanding, and the demand for full-time preschool teachers, parent-child guidance teachers and full-time nurses is increasing. According to statistics, in recent ten years, the average annual growth rate of the number of kindergartens in China is about 6%, which is obviously lower than the growth rate of the number of children in kindergartens (about 7. 1%). Especially in the five years of 2007-20 1 1, the year-on-year growth rate of children in kindergartens is much higher than that in kindergartens. Because the state has an upper limit on the size of kindergartens, it is impossible for each kindergarten to expand the enrollment scale indefinitely. Therefore, we judge that in the next few years, in order to meet the growing demand, the number of kindergartens will accelerate, which creates a good opportunity for the development of private kindergartens.
According to the statistics of the Ministry of Education, the number of private kindergartens in China increased from 68,800 in 2005 to139,300 in 2065. The number of kindergarten children has also maintained a high-speed growth trend, surpassing the number of public kindergartens for the first time in 20 12. In 20 14 years, the number of people in the park reached 21250,000, accounting for 52.5%. The development and construction of private parks are very rapid. In this way, the industry development pattern of maintaining the scale of public parks and developing steadily, expanding and rapidly growing the scale of private parks, and the coexistence of various early education institutions and pre-school education and training institutions has provided a broad space for the development of pre-school education.
Judging from a series of policies recently formulated by the Ministry of Education, it is the general trend to bring preschool education into compulsory education. Once preschool education is included in compulsory education, the government's financial support for public kindergartens will increase. Compulsory education means that the enrollment rate of school-age children is close to 100%, which will obviously stimulate the overall demand of kindergartens.
(B) professional development prospects analysis
Preschool education, also known as "preschool education", is characterized by the earlier the development direction of preschool (preschool) education specialty is determined, the more targeted the courses and teaching activities arranged by the school, and the more time and energy students can pay attention to preschool education and cultivate their own professional expertise during their study at school. In addition to preschool education, students' future development direction can also move to the art direction. With the government's emphasis on preschool education, parents pay more and more attention to their children's early education. Therefore, our college is going to set up preschool education specialty in this society that urgently needs preschool teachers. This is entirely for students' employment and development after graduation. Students can go to kindergartens or various children's training schools for employment after graduation. Students with ability can also start their own businesses, run their own classes, substitute classes, etc.
The advantage of "preschool education" (kindergarten teacher) major lies in that preschool education is far from being truly popularized at present, and there will be a great demand for preschool education graduates for a long time to come.
