In response, the Executive Yuan established an Educational Reform Evaluation Committee, which held general discussions on the drawbacks of Taiwan's educational system and made a list of eight priorities for educational reform. These included "easing the path of advancement and creating multiple tracks for admission."
行政院隨後成立「教育改革審議會」，通盤檢討教育弊病，列出包括「暢通升學管道、推動多元入學方案」等八項優先改革重點，建議先由大學改革入學方式，再推向高中。
