The Effects of Inland Boarding School Education on Xinjiang Students - and their Parent

This book contributes to the existing knowledge in the field of government schooling on ethnic minority students in China. The findings offer direction about enhanced practice and understanding of the Xinjiangban policy. The Effects of Inland Boarding School Education on Xinjiang Students and Their Families examines the prolonged period of detachment has impacted the relationship between parents and their children who have attended Xinjiangban in eastern China. Xin Su argues that there is a lack of understanding among the community and specifically the parents, partly due to their lack of understanding of the mainstream educational processes and the one-way direction communication between school authorities and families. In this way, this work redresses the ambiguity behind the program and the lives of the children and their families part of it. The findings also hint at a major social change to come to China, specifically how the ancient concept of "family affection" is currently under threat.
