Abstract

Family education is critically important for the healthy growth of young children. Realizing the importance of family education, the Ministry of Education of China has proposed a new policy in 2015, urging the regional education departments, schools and communities to provide solid guidance and support for family education. However, with the acceleration of China’s modernization and urbanization, more and more young couples have given up their primary family education responsibilities while searching their fortunes in big cities. Therefore, their parents, the older generation, have shouldered the responsibilities in rearing and educating the young children, which we call it “trans-generational rearing”. In this case, how can regional governments, schools and communities help them to rear and educate their grandchildren better? This paper takes Qingyuan City as an example, and analyzes the current strategies for supporting family education conducted by the government, schools and communities in the city, so as to find out the needs to improve those strategies. This paper also tries to explore the elderly’ characteristics and needs based the investigation and interviews of 20 samples, so as to provide strategies and suggestions for improve the quality of “trans-generational rearing” in Qingyuan City.
