This book examines how educational change has progressed in three
contrasting areas spread across China since 1990, exploring key
issues concerning rural education in poor, rich and minority areas.
Of the three areas covered in this book, the first is a rich one
near Beijing; the second is in the northwest in Shanxi on the Loess
plateau; and the third is in Sichuan on the high plateau leading to
Tibet. Central issues include the impact of large-scale demographic
change and migration, with increasing numbers of left-behind
children in sending areas, and large increases in the numbers of
inbound migrants in receiving areas; dramatic increases in the
boarding of children in rural areas as a result of rural school
merge; changing patterns of teacher deployment; recentralization of
responsibilities for school financing; and growing concerns
regarding horizontal and vertical inequalities in both access and
participation.
