That is, at the level of middle school education, such issues as purport setting in the early years of the Republic of China, as giving consideration to both further studies and employment in National Government Period, as well as objectives and characteristics at wartime involved.The second is discussion on the issue of system reform in middle school. Education system, as a guideline in the entire education system, providing the organization establishment of schools at all levels, curriculum provision and other school system, so was the orientation for the entire school system expansion, since the implementation of Renyin school system in late Qing dynasty, our middle school system changes over several times, while the length of studies lengthening and shortening, course content was occasionally the division of liberal Arts or two subjects established meanwhile. Therefore, in the history of the whole middle school education, controversies always exist in academic and ideological circle around issues such as division with the selection of subjects, fixed years of middle school education, system democratization and so on.The third is the problem of basic theory in discipline and discipline unity. Discussion about discipline is a constant theme at the entire period of the National Government, that is, controversy of the unity of discipline and teaching to the separation of them, although the discipline research was relatively dilute in the National Government, discussion of discipline problems had a relatively quiet period, this does not affect the discussion of this topic. In theory, even early years in the National Government to the late, the unity of discipline and teaching has been a difficult problem the academia facing, while this theme has been basically reached a consensus, due to the impact of the political relations are somewhat narrow and negative in the implementation process, making the effect of discipline implementation is not significant, which is why the unity of discipline and teaching makes a consistent understanding, but of its discussion had never been stopped.The last part is the conclusion.According to the whole paper and the development of the secondary educational thoughts, the value of the secondary educational thoughts in modern China will be found.
