Chinese Education Ministry Forms Special Group to Promote Education in Xinjiang
The Chinese Ministry of Education has set up a high-level work group headed by the minister to promote education in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
The group will formulate guidelines and programs on bilingual education, secondary vocational education and higher education in Xinjiang, a ministry notice said Thursday.
It would also make proposals for funding and coordinate national support for education in Xinjiang.
The establishment of the group comes after authorities outlined the strategic plan for Xinjiang's "leapfrog development" in May.
Education, along with other aspects of social and economic development, is relatively backward in Xinjiang.
