COMPULSORY EDUCATION EQUITY IN CHINA

Abstract

After the reform and opening up, China's "first the rich lead the poor" concept has significantly improved the economy of China's coastal cities and eastern regions, attracting a large number of outstanding educational talents and schools. In contrast, due to slow economic development, the western regions and rural areas have experienced a large outflow of population, unable to attract outstanding educational talents, resulting in a vicious circle of educational problems. With the development of Chinese society, people's demand for quality education has increased, and improving educational equity has become a very important goal. The issue of educational equity is a common problem in developing countries around the world. Economically developed regions have more and richer high-quality educational resources than economically underdeveloped regions, and cities have more and richer high-quality educational resources than rural areas. At international conferences, we can discuss the policies proposed by various countries on how to solve the problem of educational equity, as well as the effects that will be achieved after the policies appear, and express their respective opinions and suggestions.
