During the Republic of China, education showed the characteristics of contending and accepting criticism from western literary schools. China's traditional culture attaches importance to the combination of talent education and productive labor, and many patriots actively participate in the cultural and educational undertakings in China to enlighten the people.

First, education is completely free. After the founding of the Republic of China, Sun Yat-sen emphasized the implementation of free and compulsory education in China, and in 2002, the Ministry of Education of the Republic of China clearly stipulated that normal colleges should be free of tuition fees.

Second, education funds. According to the education constitution, educational and cultural funds in remote and poor areas are subsidized by the state treasury, and important educational and cultural undertakings can be handled or subsidized by the central government.

Third, diversified educational models. At that time, public schools and private schools coexisted in China, forming an uneven, polymorphic and flexible differential order pattern.

The fourth step is to do education at all costs. At the most difficult time in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the then National Government really realized free compulsory education.
