The gender gap in education has been markedly narrowed. The state implements the Compulsory Education Law of the People's Republic of China and other relevant laws, regulations and policies, and takes practical measures to improve women's education. It has implemented a special policy to ensure school-age girls enjoy equal access to compulsory education. In 2014, the net primary school enrolment rates of boys and girls were both 99.8 percent, meaning that China has achieved the United Nations Millennium Development Goals ahead of time. Women now enjoy greater opportunities in junior high school education and above, particularly further education. In 2014, the proportion of female students in junior high schools was 46.7 percent and that in high schools was 50 percent; in institutions of higher learning women accounted for 52.1 percent of undergraduate students, 51.6 percent of postgraduate students, and 36.9 percent of students studying for Ph.D. degrees. The state has set up special funds to reduce the number of illiterate women. In 2013, the illiteracy rate for females at and over the age of 15 was 6.7 percent, 17.4 percentage points lower than in 1995; and the population of illiterate women fell by more than 70 million as compared with 1995. Women's average years of schooling have increased, and the gender gap has narrowed. The Sixth National Census showed that the average years of schooling for women over the age of six were 8.4 years in 2010, 1.3 years more than in 2000, and the gender gap had narrowed by 0.2 year as compared with 2000.

婦女接受職業(yè)教育和技能培訓的比例不斷提高。國家制定和完善職業(yè)教育的法律政策，加大職業(yè)教育經(jīng)費投入，完善助學政策體系，擴大婦女接受職業(yè)教育規(guī)模。2014年，接受中等職業(yè)教育的女性規(guī)模達到805萬，普通中專在校女生達到397萬，分別占總數(shù)的44.7%和53.0%；全國接受各種非學歷高等和中等教育的女性規(guī)模分別達到346萬和2000多萬。開展“新型農(nóng)民科技培訓工程”“國家高技能人才振興計劃”和針對農(nóng)民工職業(yè)技能提升的“春潮行動”“陽光工程”等多樣化培訓，滿足不同婦女群體的職業(yè)發(fā)展需求。2013年，女性參加政府培訓機構(gòu)舉辦的職工技能培訓人數(shù)占培訓總數(shù)的43.0%。
More and more women have been receiving vocational education and skill training. The state has enacted and improved laws and policies on vocational education, allocating more funds in this regard, improving student aid policies and increasing the number of women receiving vocational education. In 2014, the number of women receiving secondary vocational education was 8.05 million, accounting for 44.7 percent of the total, and the number of females studying in technical secondary schools was 3.97 million, making up 53 percent of the total student body in similar schools.

The state launched a project to train farmers in new technology, a plan for cultivating highly skilled personnel, in addition to a number of training programs for improving the vocational skills of migrant workers, such as the Spring Tide Action and Sunshine Project, to meet the needs of different groups of women for their vocational development. In 2013, women who participated in skill training programs organized by government training institutions accounted for 43 percent of the total number of trainees.

保障少數(shù)民族婦女和偏遠貧困地區(qū)女童等公平享有教育資源。制定積極政策，開設少數(shù)民族專門學校，采取傾斜性定向招生措施，大幅增加少數(shù)民族女性接受各級各類教育的資源。制定貧困女童和女生專項教育計劃，確保偏遠、貧困地區(qū)女生平等享有教育機會。加快農(nóng)村寄宿制學校建設，改善農(nóng)村女童的學習生活條件。出臺專項政策，為流動兒童在流入地接受教育創(chuàng)造條件。重視特殊教育，增加殘疾婦女接受各級各類教育的資源，殘疾婦女受教育水平不斷提高。性別平等原則和理念逐步融入教學和科研。越來越多的學校開始在教育內(nèi)容和教學方式中引入性別平等理念，一些地方嘗試在中小學開設性別平等教育課程，引導學生樹立男女平等的性別觀念。在一些師資培訓計劃和師范類院校課程中增加性別平等內(nèi)容，增強教育工作者的性別平等意識。提高各級各類學校和教育行政部門決策和管理層的女性比例，女性在高等教育教學及管理等領(lǐng)域的參與狀況明顯改善，2014年，高校女教師比例為48.1%，比1995年增長了18.1個百分點。高等學校女性學學科建設不斷加強。目前，百余所高校開設了440余門女性學和性別平等課程，女性學碩士、博士學位點不斷增多。將性別平等議題納入國家哲學社會科學規(guī)劃，支持開展性別平等與婦女發(fā)展研究。
Women of ethnic minority groups, girls in remote poverty-stricken areas and other female groups now enjoy equal access to educational resources. The state has adopted proactive policies to set up vocational schools specially catered to ethnic minority students, and introduced preferential measures for targeted enrolment, substantially expanding ethnic minority women's access to educational resources of various types and at all levels. The state has developed special education programs for poor girls and schoolgirls, ensuring girls in remote and poor areas equal access to education. It has been accelerating the construction of boarding schools in rural areas, thereby improving the study and living conditions of rural girls. Specific policies have been introduced to provide education for migrant children where they move. China also attaches importance to special education, increasing disabled women's access to educational resources of various types and at all levels; as a result, disabled women have improved access to education. Principles and concepts of gender equality are gradually extending into teaching and scientific research. More and more schools have begun to introduce the idea of gender equality in educational content and teaching methods, and some primary and high schools are now offering courses in gender equality, directing younger students to relate to the idea of gender equality. Gender equality has also been introduced to some teacher training programs and normal school courses, in order to enhance teachers'awareness of gender equality. More women now occupy positions of decision-making and management in schools and educational administrative departments of all types and at all levels, greatly improving women's participation in teaching, management and some other areas of higher education. In 2014, the proportion of female teachers in institutions of higher learning was 48.1 percent, an increase of 18.1 percentage points over 1995. Women's studies continues to strengthen as a discipline in institutions of higher learning. Currently, more than 100 colleges and universities offer in excess of 440 courses on women's studies and gender equality, and the number of master's and doctoral programs on women's studies continues to grow. The state has also included gender equality in the national plans of philosophy and social sciences to support research in gender equality and women's issues.
