习近平强调，新时代新形势，坚持把优先发展教育事业作为推动党和国家各项事业发展的重要先手棋。

Because China is a CPC-led socialist country, the fundamental task of education must be nurturing capable young people well-prepared to join the socialist cause, Xi said. Capable people should be nurtured generation after generation to uphold the Party leadership and the socialist system and commit themselves to strive for socialism with Chinese characteristics for life, Xi said.
我国是中国共产党领导的社会主义国家，这就决定了我们的教育必须把培养社会主义建设者和接班人作为根本任务。培养一代又一代拥护中国共产党领导和我国社会主义制度、立志为中国特色社会主义奋斗终身的有用人才。

Better education and guidance are needed to build the noble ideal of Communism and the common ideal of socialism with Chinese characteristics among the students, Xi said. Efforts should be made to firm up the patriotic spirit in the students' hearts, he said, adding that the students should also be guided to love and support the CPC.
习近平强调，教育引导学生树立共产主义远大理想和中国特色社会主义共同理想，让爱国主义精神在学生心中牢牢扎根，教育引导学生热爱和拥护中国共产党。

Xi said the students should be encouraged to treasure their time in school and concentrate on seeking knowledge in an undistracted manner. He also urged efforts to educate and guide the students to foster their sense of responsibility, striving spirit, comprehensive capability, creative thinking, love for sports, aesthetic taste and hard-working spirit.
教育引导学生珍惜学习时光，心无旁骛求知问学。教育引导学生树立高远志向，历练敢于担当、不懈奋斗的精神。教育引导学生培养综合能力，培养创新思维。帮助学生在体育锻炼中享受乐趣，提高学生审美和人文素养，在学生中弘扬劳动精神。

Xi stressed building an education system which comprehensively fosters the students' all-round moral, intellectual, physical and aesthetic grounding with a hard-working spirit, in a bid to bring the country's personnel fostering system to a higher level.
习近平指出，要努力构建德智体美劳全面培养的教育体系，形成更高水平的人才培养体系。

He also pledged continuous improvements in the treatment of teachers.
他强调，要不断提高教师待遇。

习近平指出，要深化教育体制改革，加快一流大学和一流学科建设。

Xi said that efforts to strengthen the overall Party leadership over education work are the fundamental guarantee for the developments in education, adding that families, schools, the government, and society should all do their share and perform their responsibilities in education.
习近平强调，加强党对教育工作的全面领导，是办好教育的根本保证。办好教育事业，家庭、学校、政府、社会都有责任。
