Abstract

Following the former Premier Deng Xiaoping’s Reform and Opening-up policies, Chinese education underwent a spectacular shift, which contributes to both the process of pursuing education modernization in conjunction with the economy’s transformation and development. Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the Eurasian Continent, the United Kingdom (UK) inherited a world-renowned, high-quality education system that was developed through time as the country underwent industrialization and democratization processes. The educational systems of the UK and China, two of the world’s prominent nations, have many similarities and distinctions. At each stage of schooling, each system has advantages and disadvantages. The aim of this study is to produce findings that can increase the quality of education by addressing the existing and emerging issues in both countries’ educational systems. Specifically, this study compares educational systems in present-day UK and in China’s post Reform and Opening-up period by analyzing 1) The current schooling systems of China and the UK, 2) Differences in Classroom Culture, 3) The existing and emerging problems in the educational system in the expectation of ensuring a quality education for both countries.
