Reviews

“With its multidimensional landscape and rich detail, this book presents the latest developments in Chinese education from a global perspective, highlighting China’s efforts to fulfil its commitments to SDG4 and promote international understanding. Undoubtedly, it is an essential read for the international community to rethink Chinese education in the 21st century.” Mingyuan Gu, Distinguished Professor of Beijing Normal University, Honorary Professor of Teachers College, Columbia University, US “We cannot consider international educational development without thoroughly giving thought to each country’s context, including cultural, geographical and societal influences. This book uniquely details education in Chinese schools and universities. Its use of empirical research and consideration of international influences on practice make this a valuable addition to the book series.” Zeta Williams-Brown, Professor for Inclusive Education, University of Wolverhampton, UK
