摘要
This report is based on statistics published yearly in the World Bank and the Education Statistics Yearbook by the Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China.Using these freely available statistics,ECNU Review of Education aims to provide a basic comparative overview of representation of female teachers in all levels of basic education—both in China and the world.While this report articulates the aforementioned data in a comparative way,no absolute or final conclusions are meant to be drawn from these comparisons.Rather,we hope the following serves as a method of drawing attention to educational issues such as gender equality.Furthermore,we also hope that this report will serve to encourage follow-up research related to this topic.
