Educational equity and institutional safeguards

Abstract

The educational inequity of rural workers’ children is a unique social problem in the transition stage of China. Based on the specific survey in such provinces as Hubei, Henan, Anhui, and other provinces, a conclusion can be drawn that the reasons for the educational inequity of rural worker’s children are very complicated, among which the system is the most essential factor. Therefore, institutional safeguards should be provided to realize the education equity of rural worker’s children.

摘要

进城务工人员子女义务教育公平问题是中国社会转型期一个独特的社会问题。 基于对中国湖北、 河南、 安徽等省市进城务工人员子女上学问题的专门调查, 并结合全国其他省市的调查研究, 可以发现, 产生这一问题的原因相当复杂, 但制度是其中最重要的因素。 因此, 要保证进城务工人员子女能公平地接受义务教育, 必须为其提供制度保障。
