Abstract

China has a long history of education and its educational administration system can be traced back to more than 2,000 years ago. This article focuses on the development of the educational administration system in China through a series of laws, regulations and policies, arguing that China’s current educational administration system-the State Council and local governments at various levels are responsible to guide and administer educational work under the principles of administration by different levels and of a division of responsibilities needs to be further extended and reformed to address the new challenges and problems in the era of marketization and internationalization.
