The school education in Sui and Tang Dynasties was different from the main body of running a school, that is, the government-run school was an official school and the private school was a private school. These are two main components of feudal education.

The difference between official learning and private learning is that official learning focuses on cultivating future bureaucratic reserve talents, mainly young people and adults with certain cultural knowledge, and the basic content of learning is Confucian classics.

Private schools not only undertake the heavy responsibility of basic education, but also undertake the task of inheriting national culture more widely than official schools.

Reasons and conditions for the vigorous development of private schools in Sui and Tang Dynasties;

First, the needs of the public.

Second, the advocacy of government policies.

Third, the economic prosperity of Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Private schools are divided into primary schools and advanced schools according to their teaching level.

The place to carry out enlightenment literacy education and general life and ethical knowledge education is the private school of primary school;

Those who teach specialized or other professional knowledge and technology are advanced private schools.
