Reasons for the unbalanced development of education;

1. Uneven allocation of educational resources;

2. The "urban orientation" of education policy.

The present situation and problems of urban and rural education;

1. The problem of rural education hardware facilities is outstanding;

2. There are great differences between urban and rural teachers;

3. There are great differences between urban and rural teachers' professional psychology.

For the huge gap between urban and rural education resources that has been formed, the allocation of education resources should follow the following principles: "First, the rules should be fair so as not to widen the gap;" Second, if possible, it should be tilted towards backward areas in order to actively narrow the gap. " However, the continuous development of education has not improved this situation, but has expanded it. Urban schools with good hardware are given priority, and excellent teachers give priority to urban schools, which aggravates the gap between urban and rural education.
