Abstract
How to effectively implement the work of reducing the burden of basic education has been concerned by people. By using the knowledge of game theory, this paper analyzes the behavioral goals of the relevant subjects in reducing the burden of basic education, and puts forward some suggestions. We should change the "focus" to "characteristics" and guide the diversified development of primary and secondary education. By adjusting the matching degree of various levels of education, the pressure of entering school can be reduced. Through social reform, the interests of different classes were adjusted and the residual negative influence of imperial examination culture was eliminated, so as to successfully remove the stumbling block of "excessive academic burden" in the educational reform of the new era and create conditions for cultivating a large number of outstanding talents needed for national development and national rejuvenation.
