Xi also emphasized the importance of cultivating competent officials and teachers, improving the management and supervision over students, and elevating the quality of Party school operation.
Xi's important instruction was conveyed by Chen Xi, president of the Party School of the CPC Central Committee (National Academy of Governance), during a meeting on Party school work held in Beijing on Sunday.
Chen called for high-quality work in nurturing talent and offering advice, and urged efforts to enhance the study of the Party's new theories.
