Abstract

One of the main development goals of education in China is to promote the high-quality and balanced development of compulsory education. This paper constructs a general supply and demand analysis framework for educational resources. By integrating the current situation and trend indexes of the number of students, the number of teachers and the quality of teachers, this paper proposes an index system to comprehensively evaluate the supply and demand of education. This paper, using the hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA), a common unsupervised learning algorithm in data analysis, clusters the supply and demand indexes of compulsory education in 31 provincial-level administrative regions in China. The results show that these provinces can be clustered into six patterns. Through a comprehensive analysis of the educational supply and demand pattern and the population and economy characteristics in each region, this paper puts forward policy recommendations for educational improvement and development applicable to each region.
