Substitute teachers refer to temporary teachers who have no career establishment in public schools. The temporary teachers who have taught before have basically turned positive or retired. Starting from 1985, in order to improve the quality of teachers in basic education, the Ministry of Education banned the appearance of private teachers nationwide.
However, many remote and poor mountainous areas are unable to recruit public teachers or public teachers are unwilling to go because of economic difficulties. These vacancies still need temporary teachers to fill. They are "substitute teachers".

Reasons for the existence of substitute teachers:
1. Substitute teachers bear the historical responsibility of maintaining compulsory education. Substitute teachers have to do it because of insufficient investment in educational resources.
2. The long-term existence of substitute teachers itself shows certain rationality. For example, in a certain place in the west, if all teachers eat financial meals, it will occupy more than 80% of the fiscal revenue and become an unbearable burden for local finance. Considering that a teacher in editing can support seven or eight substitute teachers, substitute teachers have become a realistic choice.
3. Substitute teachers are generally distributed in cold areas, mountainous areas and poverty-stricken areas. These places are places where regular teachers are unwilling to go, and it will be more difficult to connect after the substitute teachers leave.
