| The Decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on the Reform of the Education reform,issued in 1985,formally proposed the systematic implementation of nine-year compulsory education.In terms of specific funding burden for compulsory education,a guarantee mechanism has been established to implement a nine-year compulsory education system that is managed by local authorities at different levels.In 1986,China promulgated the "Compulsory Education Law",which stipulated that China implemented a nine-year compulsory education system,which also meant that China officially began the compulsory education system.The 1986 version of the Compulsory Education Law was the earliest law in New China to introduce free compulsory education,aiming to reduce the burden on primary and secondary school students.However,due to the constraints of economic development level and local social and financial resources at that time,the free compulsory education system was not well implemented.After 2005,China gradually began to promote free compulsory education,and the funding for compulsory education has also been basically guaranteed,manifested in the steady growth of compulsory education funding and the gradual improvement of intergovernmental responsibility sharing mechanisms..Compulsory education in Madagascar is usually supported by a central financial grant.Even though the country has allocated the corresponding budget funds for education,this part of the budget is not high compared with the increase of the number of students and the demand for national education.The implementation of education for all can only guarantee the quantity but cannot provide the quality.In the face of such huge financial and economic pressures,Madagascar’s mechanism to ensure the funding of compulsory education has some problems.In 1990,Madagascar declared at the World Education for All Congress that it would make education compulsory for all by the year 2000.Thailand’s Education for all program--Education for All in English and Education Pour Tous (EPT) in French--aims to ensure that everyone has access to basic needs training.However,the Government’s educational policies and financial difficulties have led to the fact that the objectives of the universal compulsory education programme have not been guaranteed and achieved.The development of compulsory education in rural areas of Madagascar is difficult due to the unbalanced economic development in the country and regions.Rural economy is based on crops,while the development of other industries is slower.On this basis,due to the relatively backward economic level,it is difficult to fund compulsory education,which also makes the level of primary school teachers and funding investment cannot be guaranteed,and ultimately leads to the obstruction of rural compulsory education process,which seriously hinders the popularization and development of rural compulsory education.Finally,the paper discusses and analyzes the development and changes of China’s compulsory education fund guarantee mechanism,the characteristics and reform of each transition stage,and the achievements of China’s compulsory education fund guarantee system.At the same time,it compares and analyzes the current situation of the guarantee mechanism of compulsory education funds in Madagascar,and puts forward the enlightenment of China’s guarantee mechanism of compulsory education funds for Madagascar. |
