Original title: Shenzhen intends to legislate to implement enrollment in the university district, and housing prices in the school district have long been loosening signs
The “Draft Opinions” proposes that the municipal and district education departments should implement the university district admissions and school management model; the compulsory education points admission policy should be optimized, and factors such as household registration, length of residence, and social security years should be comprehensively considered to ensure fairness and reasonableness.
The matching phenomenon of top schools and high-priced school district housing is not unfamiliar. In order to promote a more balanced education resources, Shenzhen’s “Basic Law” in the field of social construction is planned to be promulgated.
On July 30, the “Shenzhen Special Economic Zone Social Construction Regulations (Draft for Solicitation of Comments)” (hereinafter referred to as the “Draft for Comments”) was publicly solicited on the website of the Standing Committee of the Shenzhen Municipal People’s Congress. It is planned to adopt legislation to implement the management model of enrollment and school running in the university district. Establish a teacher exchange system in compulsory education schools, and improve a mechanism for co-construction and sharing of high-quality educational resources.
In fact, the university district’s admissions and school teacher exchanges are not unfamiliar, and various districts and schools in Shenzhen have also tried. “The main purpose of the implementation of the legislation is to promote the high-quality and balanced development of compulsory education in Shenzhen and establish a long-term guarantee mechanism under the rule of law.” Wang Zhenzai, deputy director of the Regional Development Planning Institute of China (Shenzhen) Comprehensive Development Research Institute, accepted a reporter from China Business News Said in the interview.
Proposed to implement a university district system in the city
At the beginning of 2015, the Shenzhen Municipal Education Bureau issued the “Guiding Opinions of the Shenzhen Municipal Education Bureau on the Enrollment of Compulsory Education in Shenzhen”, suggesting that from 2015 onwards, all districts of Shenzhen will explore the pilot admission system for university districts, that is, all districts will explore trial points for enrollment methods. Each district can set up university districts with communities, streets, etc., based on the requirements of “relative proximity, equal education balance, relatively concentrated schools, and consistent counterparts for nine years”. Parents can voluntarily enroll in 2-3 schools for their children in the school district. Admission is based on the order of volunteers and points.
The opinions issued in 2015 are only small-scale exploration and pilot projects. It is understood that after the release of the opinion, in 2015 Shenzhen Nanshan District, Yantian District, and Luohu District implemented the university district system in a small area. In February 2021, Shenzhen Longgang District began to implement the university district system on a pilot basis throughout the district; in March, the Longhua District Education Bureau also announced the “List of Points Enrollment Measures for University District Schools in the Compulsory Education Phase of Longhua District, Shenzhen (Revised Draft) (solicited) Opinion draft)”.
The “Draft Opinions” proposed that the municipal and district education departments should implement the university district enrollment and school management model, establish a teacher exchange system for compulsory education schools, and improve the mechanism for co-construction and sharing of high-quality educational resources; compulsory education points admission policies should be optimized and comprehensive considerations should be made Factors such as household registration, length of residence, and social security period ensure fairness and reasonableness.
Hua Hong, director of the Development Research Department of the Shenzhen Real Estate Agency Association, told China Business News that through legislation, the university district system is legalized and institutionalized. From this point of view, the citywide implementation of the university district system is only a matter of time.
“Shenzhen is also a general trend in advancing the legislation of the university district system. The state proposed that the school district housing should not be used to speculate on housing prices. This was implemented from Beijing to Shenzhen through legislation to stop it. The ultimate motivation is to promote fair education.” Deputy China Urban Economic Expert Committee Director Song Ding told a reporter from China Business News, “Spending high fees to buy a school district housing for admission to school is generally economical.Common peopleThat is unfair. In this sense, the balanced allocation of educational resources in the university district is a positive signal. “
School district housing prices have long been loosening signs
Since Shenzhen issued government guidance for second-hand housing prices, even for school district housing, the transaction has dropped rapidly. At the beginning of the year, some streets in Longgang and Longhua successively began to implement university districts, and the division of multiple schools has also caused disagreements among many residents. People in need of buying houses are also more cautious about buying second-hand houses in high-quality school districts.
It is understood that in the “old broken small” school district in Shenzhen’s Baihua area, when the market was on the rise, the house price of a small apartment was once close to 350,000 yuan per square meter. However, in the context of the decline in market conditions and the state’s proposal that the school district housing cannot be used to speculate on housing prices, the school district housing prices in this area have long been loosening.
“Baihua’s houses have dropped again recently.” On August 3, the agent Mr. Chen told China Business News, “The second-hand housing market has not risen since the beginning of this year. “
According to the data of an intermediary platform, the National City Garden with a “dual experiment” degree, a four-bedroom apartment with an area of 127.82 square meters, the owner quoted 30 million yuan on July 2nd, and adjusted the price to 32 million yuan on July 3rd. , But by July 15, it dropped 2.2 million to 29.8 million, and the unit price was about 233,000 yuan per square meter.
In fact, at the end of May this year, when a reporter from China Business News visited the Baihua area, they found that individual owners began to adjust prices. At that time, the price of 100,000 to 500,000 was lowered, and after July, the price reduction increased. There has been a situation where the total price has been reduced by one million.
In addition to the above reduction, the reporter also found that on July 11, the owner of a 94.63-square-meter 3-bedroom apartment in Nantian Er Garden with the “Double Experimental” school district was quoted at 22.3 million, which was raised by 200,000 to 22.5 million on the same day, half of the price. Months later, on July 28, the owner lowered 1 million yuan to 21.5 million yuan.
Mr. Chen told reporters: “This is also a few owners who continue to spend money, and many owners disagree, and the price is still strong.”
If the university district system is implemented throughout the city, will it really make the degree and the house decouple? Song Ding believes that it is not so absolute. Regardless of whether it is the elementary school district or the university district, Shenzhen has a limited number of prestigious schools, and not all university districts have prestigious schools. Buying a house in a large area with a prestigious school means that the probability of entering a prestigious school in the original school district is 100%. After the implementation of the university district, the probability of enrolling will be reduced. But there is no large area of prestigious schools, and it has always competed for large areas with prestigious schools.
At the same time, Hua Hong pointed out that to a certain extent, if legislation is enacted, it will definitely have a certain degree of cooling effect on the sky-high school district housing. However, to break the relationship between the school district housing and the degree, the key lies in whether the points admission system can be adjusted or adjusted. Changes, such as matching adjustments to the evaluation criteria of the house type, actual length of residence, etc.
“This has a more obvious impact on the’old and broken’ school district housing. However, because the balanced development of high-quality education will not be achieved overnight, the delineation of the university district will still have obvious regional characteristics.” Wang Zhen said, “Under this background, Affected by the relatively low price elasticity of the demand for high-quality educational resources, the better-designed housing in the districts of the university districts with transportation, living facilities, surrounding environment, and apartment layouts may be further sought after, and the phenomenon of supplementary price increases is not ruled out.”
