- Abstract:
- In the period from 1906 to 1949, the local education administration system in China underwent the following changes: from establishing education promotion department(EPD); to replacing EPD with education department(ED); to restoring EPD; to establishing education bureau(EB); to reorganizing EB; to replacing EB with ED; and to restoring EB. The whole process shows modern China’s efforts to establish a standardized, democratic, independent, professional and open administration system of education. At the same time, it also reveals that the education administration at that period was chaotic in organization, idealistic in goal-setting, westernized in content, and radical in manner. A review of this process will shed much light on the current reform in local education administration system in China.
