Under certain political and economic conditions, the larger the population, the greater the scale of education needed. Therefore, the high population growth inevitably requires expanding the scale of education. On the contrary, population decline will also affect the scale of education development.
2. The demographic structure affects the educational structure.
Population structure refers to the composition of population in age, gender, culture, technology, occupation, class, region and nationality. The change of age structure affects the development scale of education at all levels. Population distribution affects the layout of education.
3. Population quality affects the quality of education.
Population quality refers to the overall reflection of social population in physical quality, cultural quality and moral quality. The various qualities of the population and the cultural structure of the population play an indirect role in school education.
Extended data
The level of productivity determines the scale and speed of education. Education needs some manpower, material resources and financial resources. Therefore, the scale and speed of any social education development must depend on two conditions. On the one hand, the production of material resources can provide a material basis for the development of education, on the other hand, it is the demand for labor by the development of productive forces and social reproduction.
The level of productive forces restricts the change of educational structure. The development of productive forces constantly causes changes in industrial structure, technical structure, consumption structure and distribution structure. Correspondingly, the educational structure has also undergone new changes.
The development level of productive forces restricts the content and means of education. The development of productive forces and the progress of science and technology promote the continuous improvement of people's cognitive ability and thinking level, and then promote the continuous improvement and updating of school curriculum structure and content.
