Education majors are also divided into normal classes and non-normal classes. There are no normal classes in vocational and technical schools, all of which are abnormal classes.

Teachers' class does not refer to certain majors, but generally refers to a class of colleges and universities. In the past, all majors in normal universities could be regarded as normal classes, including pedagogy, psychology and other majors that were not engaged in teacher work. Because many normal universities have been changed into comprehensive universities, chemistry, Chinese, mathematics, physics, foreign languages, physical education, politics and other disciplines related to primary and secondary education in normal universities are customarily called normal education.
