This is a question worthy of further analysis, that is, what kind of education investment should the government ensure. Yes, there are still many places waiting for financial expenditure. As far as education is concerned, there are higher education, compulsory education, high school education, preschool education, vocational education, special education and so on. Everyone wants a piece of cake, but the cake is too big. In the process of developing education in China, three problems have emerged. First, the overall investment in education is seriously insufficient, which goes without saying. By 2009, China's financial investment in education only accounted for 3.59% of GDP; Second, the field of education investment is out of place with the educational responsibility that the government should bear. Generally speaking, China's investment in higher education is too large, while the investment in basic education, especially compulsory education, is too low, which leads to the fact that compulsory education in China has long been a nominal "obligation", and it was not completely free until 2008. Third, the subject and mode of education investment. Higher education mainly depends on central and provincial finance, while basic education mainly depends on county and township finance. According to relevant statistics, county and township finance accounts for about 80% of the investment in basic education. Due to the different financial levels in different places, there are great regional differences, urban-rural differences and inter-school differences in basic education.
