Equality is the basic premise for social harmony,stability and amiable operation.Education equality is an important part of social equality and an extension of social equality is found in the field of education.There are many fine points in education equality,among which are the urban and rural education equality,this is an important key component.The report from the 19 th National Congress of the Communist Party of China points out that it is necessary to fully implement the party's educational policy.Implementing these policies is truly a fundamental task of establishing morality,cultivating people,developing quality education,promoting educational equality,training socialist influencers and successors with an all-round approach to the development of morality,intelligence,physical education and beauty.Education affects a person's quality of life,with education you can improve a persons income and thus improving the quality of their life.Since the founding of new China,China has made remarkable achievements in the field of education,for all.However,it should also be noted that there is still a large gap in education between the urban and rural residents of China.In 2017,the average education period for urban residents of China was 10.30 years,while the average education period of rural residents was 7.80 years.Compared with the average education period of urban and rural residents,the discrepancy was 2.50 years.The phenomenon of education inequality between the urban and rural residents is more prominent than we think.This kind of education inequality in the urban and rural areas is ultimately apparent in the form of an income gap.The pattern is embodied between the urban and rural area residents.In 2017,the average disposable income of the rural residents and urban residents in China was 13432.43 yuan and 36396.19 yuan respectively,with a difference of approximately 2.71 times more income between the urban and rural residents.Therefore,based on the current situation of the urban and rural education inequality in China,this paper empirically analyzes the impact and role of urban and rural education inequality,based on the income ofurban and rural residents.This paper will explore the paths and methods to solve the problem.To better aid in the reduction of the income gap between the urban and rural areas by narrowing the education gap in urban and rural areas.Accordingly,the research content of this paper has been divided into the following sections.The first section is the introduction.It mainly focus on the research questions,clarifies the research significance,research ideas,research contents,research methods and innovation ideas.The second section is related to theories and literature reviews.By combing the related concepts and theories of urban and rural education inequality and income gap between the urban and rural residents.This paper analyzes the relationship between the urban and rural education inequality and income gap between those areas.This section will summarize the relevant literature on the impact of urban and rural education inequality as well as how it effects the income gap between the urban and rural residents.The third part is the current situation and changing trends of the urban and rural education inequality and income gap between the urban and rural residents.This paper mainly uses macro data to describe the current situation of the urban and rural education equality in China from three aspects: the starting point being,the inequality,process of inequality and the results of this inequality.This paper will analyze the current situation of the urban and rural residents' income in China.From the aspects of income growth rate,income structure,income grouping,and examines the relationship between urban and rural education inequality as well as the income gap between.The fourth section is the empirical analysis of the impact of urban and rural education inequality and how it effects the income gap between the two.This paper puts urban and rural education inequality in a research category showing the effects of the income gap between the two target social classes.This paper take a quantitative approach when analyzing the impact of urban and rural education inequality,as well as the income gap between the urban and rural residents.The analysis determines the causal relationship between the urban and rural education inequality and its effect on the income gap between urban and rural residents.The fifth section analyzes the effects of the urban and rural education inequality to the income,based on the perspective of educational return rate.Based on the micro data of China's Comprehensive Social Survey(CGSS)and the extended minster wage equation,this paper estimates the impact of the urban and rural education on the income of urban and rural residents by using the instrumental variable regression method.Verifying the gap between urban and rural residents' educational income rate.By using Oaxaca Blinder's method and Shapley's value decomposition method,this paper analyzes the educational income of urban and rural residents.The total explanatory power of education to the income gap between urban and rural residents is 32.5%.The sixth section analyzes the impact of urban and rural education inequality on the income distribution of the residents from the perspective of income distribution.By constructing the theoretical model of urban and rural education inequality and income distribution of urban and rural residents,while using China's micro survey data,as well asusing quartile regression method and discrete variable regression method,this paper investigates the educational income gap and of different income groups.It will also discuss the impact of urban and rural education inequality on the income distribution of different groups.The seventh section is based on the perspective of inter-generational mobility,analyzing the impact of urban and rural education inequality on the inter-generational income of urban and rural residents.It analyses it from two aspects,one being the access to educational resources and two the investment in education.This paper explores the role of education inequality on inter-generational income mobility in the urban and rural areas.Finally,according to the results of theoretical and empirical research,this paper discusses the policy suggestions to narrow the income gap between urban and rural residents,through the balanced development of urban and rural education and thus
