In the past, the township education management office was called the township education group and the township education Committee, but later it was renamed the education management office in response to the call to cancel this level of units.

There used to be an education group in towns and villages, but now it is an education management office. At that time, many villages had primary schools or joint middle schools, and a town had many schools. In order to facilitate management, such an educational management institution was established.
