The Perceptions of Double-Reduction Policy Implementation on Students' Perception on their Academic Performance in Shanxi Province

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The study seeks to explore the perceptions of teachers and students regarding the policy’s impact. Using Ecological Systems Theory and Institutional Theory as a framework, the study employs a survey-based data collection method, gathering responses from students, along with interviews with ten experienced teachers to understand implementation challenges. Descriptive statistics and thematic analysis will be applied to analyze the data. 425 students have been chosen to conduct the survey, and 10 teachers have been selected to conduct the interview. Applying the IBM SPSS software and colour coding technique, all of the data are critically interpreted. The findings will contribute to existing literature by offering insights into the effectiveness and challenges of the policy, potentially guiding future educational reforms and policymaking. The findings highlight that the Double Reduction Policy significantly influences students' self-evaluation of academic performance through reduced workload, decreased anxiety, positive attitudes toward the policy, and decent work conditions.
