Abstract

As China has developed rapidly in the new era after the Reform and Open Up, a monumental transition has occurred in various sectors of the society. However, if one analyzes the conditions more specifically by different parts, one undeniable fact is that the different regions across the vast Chinese soil appear to suffer large disparities in the education resources. and people affiliated under different “School Selection Zone” and belonging to demographic groups are entitled to different levels of resources and opportunities in almost every aspect of living. The research methodology considered and employed in this article is the mixed research method . Since the grand scale of directly giving out surveys to tremendous people dwelling in those regions is not feasible using the resources, for the qualitative part of methodology, this paper also draws on a series of existing articles and data. By looking into the paper of previous researches, the reader may perceive that they exhibit different degrees of expounding the reasons other than basic economic capabilities.
