The 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China will hold its sixth plenary session in November, at which it will focus on efforts to summarize the Party's major achievements over the past 100 years and draw on historical experience, a key Party meeting decided on Tuesday.

The meeting of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee also reviewed a report on the seventh round of routine disciplinary inspection, launched by the CPC Central Committee in May to perform oversight of Party bodies in the Ministry of Education and 31 universities nationwide.

Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, presided over the meeting.

Participants at the meeting noted that the CPC, since its founding in 1921, has always seen its mission and original aspiration as seeking happiness for the Chinese people and the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, according to a summary of the meeting.

The Party has always followed its Communist ideal and socialist beliefs and united the Chinese people in the fight for national independence, the people's liberation, the country's prosperity and the people's happiness, they said.

The Party and the people, through their century of struggle, have written the most splendid chapter in the history of the Chinese nation which has spanned thousands of years, they said.

Summarizing the Party's century of activity and its historical experience is instrumental to embarking on a journey to build a modern socialist nation and to upholding and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, they added.

It is also important to move forward with the CPC's self-reform, improve the entire Party's fighting capacity and its ability to respond to risks and challenges, and forever maintain the Party's vitality and vigor, according to the summary.

The meeting stressed the need for the entire Party to understand the reason for its success over the past century and figure out ways to continue to succeed in the future and live up to the CPC's original aspiration and mission in a firmer and more conscientious manner.

With the CPC now leading the people on the road to attain the second centenary goal－the building of a modern socialist nation－a new journey of tests lies ahead, the participants noted.

"The times will present the test, the Party must answer, and it will be up to the people to determine the performance," the summary said, adding that the Party must continue to come up with a good performance and make new accomplishments in the new era and new journey.

The meeting also highlighted the importance of rectifying problems found in the latest round of routine disciplinary inspection and using it as an opportunity to boost Party leadership over higher education institutions and promote the high-quality development of higher education in the new era.

It called for higher education institutions to strengthen ideological and political work, improve the professional ethics and competence of teachers and nurture a new generation of capable young people who have a good and all-around moral, intellectual, physical and aesthetic grounding and are well-prepared to join the socialist cause.
