To assess the nutritional development of China’s “compulsory education phase” by investigating the students’ nutrition status in the “Nutrition Improvement Program for Compulsory Education Students in Rural Areas”. The implementation effect of the plan provides a scientific basis for the relevant departments to improve the nutrition improvement plan. Methods: A multilevel stratified cluster random sampling method was used to collect 3,358 people from 3 provinces, 7 counties, 35 primary and secondary schools. Uses excel for data entry, sorting, SPSS23.0 statistical software for statistical analysis of data. Results the rate of malnutrition among primary and secondary school students in the “planning” area was 5.8%, which was significantly lower than the 2012 pilot area(16.2%), and there was gender and regional difference (p<0.05); The overweight/obesity rate of students was 11.1%, which was slightly higher than the pilot area in 2012 (10.2%) Conclusion: After the implementation of the nutrition improvement program, the malnutrition rate has dropped by 10.4 percentage points compared with 2012.
