Human beings yearn for the equity down the ages. With the development of politics, economy and society in China, as well as the renewal of human beings' thoughts, social equity has become a true problem which attracts the attention of society and people instead of a debating topic at the round-table conference of politics and in the study of scholars. Educational equity is the outreach of social equity in educational field, which also embodies the concept of value about equity. Education is the great tool for the realization of the equality of men and social equity because education plays an important role in strikingly bettering the survival of human beings, together with promoting the quality of population and the sustainable development of national economy and the whole society.
