Four-percent effort
The government says spending on education will be 4percent of GDP by 2012.globally,average spending on education is about 4.5% of GDP.China spend 3,33% in 2008.according to Hu Angang,of Tsinghua University's Center for China Studies,even if China reaches that goal,it will only rank about 100th out of 188countries.
Administrative rank
Administrative rankings for school leaders are to be phased out to tackle the bureaucracy (官僚机构) problem that limits educational development,according to Cheng Fangping,of the national Institute for Educational Research.Areas like teaching programs,scientific research,and technological development will be more independent.
