According to the report, the survey shows that the expenditure of family off-campus education is mainly the cost of participating in training institutions. Although it seems that the proportion of off-campus education and training expenditure is lower than that of on-campus education, the average proportion of off-campus education expenditure in compulsory education in China is over 30%, which is very high. Reducing family education expenditure and reducing the burden of family education expenditure is to send a "red envelope" to every family.
At present, the expenditure on family education in China's basic education stage also reflects the long-standing problems in China's education: insufficient preschool education resources, unbalanced compulsory education, and the tendency of basic education to take exams. Parents are more willing to pay higher tuition fees for their children to enter better kindergartens and schools, and the expenditure on off-campus training is also increasing rapidly.
Up to now, the proportion of family education expenditure in GDP has reached 2.48%, which is more than half of the national fiscal expenditure (the national fiscal expenditure on education in 20 16 was 3139.6 billion yuan), which shows that China families attach great importance to education investment and are willing to spend money on education, but too high a proportion of education expenditure will crowd out other family consumption expenditures.
I hope that education will not increase family consumption!
