Abstract

This paper mainly focuses on Research: Study on the inequality between urban and rural education development in China. This topic is primarily analyzed from the three aspects of economic investment, teacher strength, and educational opportunities. The article finds and analyses that the Chinese government invests more in urban education than rural areas. Cities with higher GDP include, in addition to government investment. These more affluent people will make charitable investments in education, which means that urban education with high GDP is also better developed. The quality of teaching in the top cities is better than that in rural areas. Teachers’ attitudes and teaching advantages vary from town to town. The quality of teachers is higher in the city, better than higher wages, and the geographical differences between urban and rural areas. There are more educational opportunities in the main hubs. Parental thinking and students’ family background, this kind of “small family mind” also plays an essential role in the educational opportunities of students growing up in different environments. The main idea is that it is also a way to participate in global education governance to narrow the gap between urban and rural students.
