Analysis of Rural Education Finance and Poverty Alleviation Policies in Guangxi to Assist Impoverished Students: Based on Data from Compulsory Education Stage

Abstract

In China, allocating rural education resources effectively and enhancing educational quality are critical for the nation’s long-term growth and social cohesion. Education significantly contributes to the country’s overall development and the integration of urban and rural areas. Particularly, the progress of rural education is not only pivotal for the country’s future trajectory but also a key element in achieving balanced development between urban and rural regions. Therefore, ensuring a fair distribution of rural education resources and effectively raising the standard of education is a matter that demands the attention of all societal sectors. This research focuses on the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region as the subject of study, delving deeply into the texts and data surrounding educational poverty alleviation policies within the region. The findings of the study show that, despite the government’s successful efforts to enhance the level of rural education through financial assistance and poverty reduction measures, the disparity between urban and rural education persists. Confronting challenges within the realm of educational poverty alleviation, the government needs to increase financial commitment to rural education, optimize the allocation of educational funds between urban and rural areas, elevate the quality of rural education, and ensure the effective and equitable execution of educational poverty alleviation policies.
