  AUTHORS: Yiguang Chen

  ABSTRACT: This paper explores the application of the concept of “Governance through Non-Action” from Laozi’s Daoist philosophy within secondary school classroom management. It undertakes a conceptual analysis of the philosophy’s historical context and core tenets, while proposing practical implementation strategies. The author contends that this approach fosters student autonomy, enhances self-management capabilities, and promotes individualised development by transforming the teacher’s role from that of a director to a facilitator.
