China issued a 2024-2035 plan on Sunday aimed at building a "strong education nation," state news agency Xinhua said.
The plan will explore gradually expanding the scope of free education, establish a system to monitor changes in the school-age population, and optimise the layout of primary and secondary schools as well as kindergartens, Xinhua said.
Additionally, it will increase "high-quality" undergraduate enrollment, expand graduate education, and raise the proportion of doctoral students, it said.
