School background:
In the early 1920s, there was a serious decline in the development of normal education in China. It turns out that normal colleges in Nanjing, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Chengdu and Shenyang have been transformed or merged into ordinary colleges and universities. At that time, the only national Peiping Normal University (now Beijing Normal University) that trained secondary education teachers in China was also in danger of being cancelled.
193 1 year, after a visit to China, the League of Nations education delegation proposed: "There are too many large schools in China Cultural Center, which should be reduced to avoid waste. In European countries, the training of middle school teachers is basically the same as that of university education. This task should be undertaken by the college of arts and sciences in the university. "
