Abstract:“Life-practice” education is the creative transformation and development of the life education theory. It takes the practical philosophy of Marxism as its theoretical horizon and actively explores the Chinese experience of the reform of education. It is based on the perspective of life and practice, aiming at understanding the nature and purpose of education, the existence and value of real life, so that education enables students to create a better life through life and practice. The connotations of“life-practice” education include that education comes from life and practice; education is achieved through life and practice; education is for the purpose of life and practice. The basic goals are to cultivate students’ independence, vitality, learning ability, practical ability, cooperation and innovation, and to promote the all-round development of human beings. Under the policy of“double reduction”, the practical paths for“life-practice” education to bring its educational function into full play are to break through the rigid classroom space, create open learning space for students, meet the diverse needs of students, create high-quality after-school services for students, and join hands with family and social education to build a healthy after-school life for students.
