EDUCATIONAL EQUITY AND QUALITY IMPROVEMENT: POLICIES AND PRACTICES IN CHINA

Abstract

This study takes China's educational equity and quality improvement as the research object, systematically analyzes the relevant policy framework and practical results, and aims to explore the synergistic path between educational equity and quality improvement. Through the research methods of policy text analysis, social impact assessment and analytic hierarchy process, this study deeply discusses the policy evolution, practical effectiveness and far-reaching impact on social development of China's education equity and quality improvement. The study found that China has made remarkable progress in improving the equity and quality of education in recent years. The implementation of the Outline of the Plan for a Powerful Education Country (2024-2035) has provided a clear direction and systematic policy support for education development. The conclusions of this study highlight that although China has made remarkable achievements in education equity and quality improvement, there are still many challenges, such as uneven resource allocation, teacher construction to be strengthened, and education evaluation system to be further improved. In the future, China needs to continue to optimize the allocation of education resources, strengthen teacher training and incentive mechanisms, improve the education evaluation system, strengthen international cooperation, and enhance the international influence of education. Through these measures, China will further promote the improvement of education equity and quality, laying a solid foundation for realizing the goal of becoming a powerful country in education.
