Relative to the infinite desire of the educational needs, the compulsory education resources are always scarce. How to allocation the educational resources to promote compulsory education development between urban and rural areas, is related to the compulsory education resource allocation efficiency. Optimize the compulsory education resource, improve the allocative efficiency and promote the balanced development of compulsory education to filled the huge gap in school conditions, the standard of teaching and the quality of education in compulsory education schools has become the Chinese Government's education priorities.In accordance with the principle of balanced development of compulsory education compulsory education resources should be tilted to the rural schools to narrow the gap between urban and rural areas. However, through research XX County, in Chongqing we find the gap between urban and rural areas, the advantage schools and weak schools not only reduced, but also enlarged. This phenomenon indicates that the resources allocation in the county do not reflect the principle of compulsory education balanced development there is compulsory education allocation low efficiency. From the public product attributes of compulsory education and the relationship between the government and compulsory education schools, the county government should investment the compulsory education and allocation the resources, the county government should be responsible for the low efficiency. Therefore study county government and the behavior of officials is valuable to solve the problem of compulsory education allocation low efficiency.Theory of Public Choice suggested, in the political decision-making process, like the economic natural person, the government officials are pursuit their own utility maximization. County government officials really have self-serving behavior and distortions the resource allocation is very important, through the research we find:in the process of resource allocation, government officials, as a rational economic man, they may be abuse the power and distort the allocation of resources or to create a "good schools" as well as adverse selection and moral hazard; there is also have tilt behavior in education policy-making process, there are also have power trading phenomenon, trade power for money phenomenon, these self-interested behavior is the endogenous variables of low inefficiency."Inappropriate rules, good person also do bad things; rules appropriate bad person do good things ". The opportunist in government officials maybe pursue their own utility to maximize because lack of rules or system constraints in the process of compulsory education allocation. So we must formulate policy to optimize the compulsory education resource, improve the allocative efficiency and promote the balanced development of compulsory education to balanced the compulsory education development. First, establish an effective administrative accountability mechanisms for government officials to weigh their behavior. Second, build a investment decision-making committees of compulsory education to constraints the government officials behavior, include parent, urban and rural teachers, schoolmasters, education managers, government officials, social medias etc. Third, use the "government performance assessment" mechanism to supervise the behavior of government officials, in order to motivate their internal dynamics Finally, establishment the education compensation mechanisms, and support the development of disadvantaged schools.
