Abstract
The development of balanced, high-quality compulsory education is a national strategy of China. County-level education serves as the building block of its basic education. The nation’s realization of equitable compulsory education largely depends on its endeavors at the county level. The Chinese government has issued a series of educational policies to support developing balanced compulsory education in counties. This article focuses on studying governmental policies on this issue and examining them in detail according to their distinct purposes.
