After the year 1978, China has entered a period of fast economic development. However, the education industry has been extremely unbalanced. The development level of education in the central China and western China lags behind that in the eastern China, and the development level of education in rural places lags behind that in urban areas. In order to solve this inequality, the Chinese government has carried out reforms in three aspects, namely, education resources, teacher team training and teacher salaries, which has solved the problem of regional education inequality to a certain extent. However, these policies still have their own shortcomings, leading to the problem has not been completely solved. This paper analyzes the policies put forward by the Chinese government in recent years to solve the inequality in educational regions, find out their defects and put forward suggestions for improvement, so as to promote the development of Chinese education.
