中韩学前教育发展的比较研究

A Comparative Study of the Development of Pre-School Education in China and South Korea

二元化是韩国学前教育的典型特征。与韩国相比,中国学前教育的普及水平低、公立幼儿园占比小、学前教育中的政府财政投入少,学前教育的师幼比低,教师整体素质偏低,在职培训缺乏常态化。学前教育的整合和学前教育立法分别是韩国和中国当前学前教育发展的重点问题。借鉴韩国学前教育发展的经验,我国应重视并积极发展0~3岁早期儿童教育;继续提高学前教育的普及程度;积极发展公办幼儿园,增加公共学前教育资源;加大政府对学前教育的公共财政支持;努力创建高质量的学前教育。

Bifurcation is a typical feature of the pre-school education in South Korea. In China,the penetration of the pre-school education is still relatively low,with a low percentage of public kindergartens,less public financial commitment to the pre-school education,a low ratio of teachers and students,the unsatisfactory professional qualification of the teachers in general,and the lack of consistent onthejob training. Integration and legislation have been key issues for the development of the pre-school education in both South Korea and China. In order to learn from the Korean lessons of developing its pre-school education,China should pay special attention and actively develop its own early education for children 0 to 3 years old. Other measures include a continuation to improve the availability of the pre-school education, an active development of public kindergartens,an increase in public educational resources,a greater public finance commitment,and the building of high-quality pre-school education.
