"On June 1, 2015, China released Rural Teacher Support Plan (2015-2020), which is an important policy for rural teachers. This research aims to analyze the content, performance and problems of this policy, and proposed insight for Taiwan in its rural education policy. The researchers mainly adopted relevant Chinese literatures in“National Social Sciences Database”while interviewing three experts in mainland China for consultation. The policy contents mainly include: (1) expanding supplementary channels for rural teachers; (2) improving the living benefits of rural teachers; (3) unifying the standards for the establishment of urban and rural faculties and staffs; (4) preferential policy support for professional title (position) evaluation and employment to rural schools; (5) promoting the flow of excellent urban teachers to rural schools; (6) comprehensively improving the ability and competency of rural teachers; (7) establishing an honor system for rural teachers, etc. The policy performance and problems are summarized as following eight points: (1) rural teachers’salary increases slightly, but there is a big gap between teachers’salary of urban and rural areas; (2) the preferential professional title evaluation gives rural teachers a growth impetus; (3) it is not easy for the special post plan to guarantee the competency of teachers; (4) the teachers are managed by the county and recruited by the school, and the turnover pool is effectively used to support the manpower of rural teachers; (5) teachers mastering multiple skills while specializing in one major meet the reality requirement of rural field teaching; (6) it is difficult to reverse the poor working environment and low social status with a single program; (7) the title of honor is only a name with no substantial incentives; (8) the policy pursues short-term performance, legalization and implementation are the biggest keys to success. Four enlightenment for rural education in Taiwan are proposed: (1) there should be a positive discrimination for teachers in rural areas; (2) the special post plan system can be imitated to recruit normal students who are willing to teach in rural areas; (3) teachers mastering many skills while specializing in interdisciplinary ability should be cultivated for rural areas; (4) there are multiple factors for rural teacher turnover, and the policy should be multi-pronged." |
