Facts about and Development in the Rural Education of the PRC

Authors

Educational equality, or equity, has gradually become an important issue for central government officials. Chinese newspapers have been quoting them since spring 2005, as they have been calling for more equal educational opportunities (see C.a., 2/2005, Dok 23; XNA, 8.9.05). Researchers name educational inequality as one of the key problems facing the Chinese education system after twenty years of reform. Educational disparities are not only apparent between eastern and western regions in China, but they clearly exist between rural and urban areas as well.
