"Rural education is an indispensable part of building an educational power. The modernization of rural education leads to the modernization of national education, and strong rural education leads to strong national education. " Wu Zhihui introduced that China's rural preschool education has continued to develop and completed a number of national policy goals ahead of schedule; The balanced level of compulsory education in rural areas has been improved in an orderly manner, and the amount of educational resources per student has increased; The general vocational education in senior high school has been steadily promoted, the financial aid system for poor students has been continuously improved, the proportion of rural students attending key universities has been continuously expanded, and the opportunities for rural students to receive higher education have increased rapidly. In the next step, we should continue to promote the balanced development of compulsory education and improve the quality of rural education.
