ABSTRACT

In 2010, the kindergarten crunch across China broke out, and the reform of Chinese preschool education system began. The kindergarten operation system in China started to shift away from the structure of “public kindergartens as the model and backbone, and private kindergartens as the major part” towards the system of “public kindergartens as the major part, and public kindergartens and private kindergartens as combined development.” The kindergarten management system in China has been precisely defined from “local responsibility and multi-level management” to an “overall planning at the provincial level and as rural focused.” The kindergarten input mechanism highlights the leading responsibility of the government’s financial input. Furthermore, teaching staff training emphasizes clearing the professional status of preschool teachers, ensuring the quantity and quality of preschool teachers, and improving the treatment of preschool teachers. In the future, China will continue to take “universal preschool education” as the goal of preschool education reform and development. Hence, China will continue to emphasize and reflect the leading role of the government’ s involvement in the development of preschool education and China will further define the identity of preschool teachers as professional workers.
