Education of Migrant Workers and Their Children and Its Solutions
农民工及其子女的教育问题与对策

The education of migrant workers' children includes two aspects: one is about migrant children and the other is about left-behind children.The education issues of migrant children are diversified.Besides migrant children's difficult schooling caused by household registration system,there are also three other problems such as migrant children's difficult schooling caused by inconsistency of education resources between their origins and destinations,discontinuous education process caused by their parents' unstable employment and weak family education caused by their parents lower education degrees and longer working time.The main cause of education issues of left-behind children is lack of their parents' effective supervision and family care.The poor economic conditions of migrant workers in cities determine that the majority of left-behind children can't get rid of their left-behind status in a short period of time.The results of quantitative analysis indicate that the migrant workers' wages are decided by their education degrees and skills.But the migrant workers' education degrees and skills are comparatively low.Most of them haven't received training and are unwilling to receive vocational and technical training in future.Finally,based on the above issues,the paper proposes to consider the education system and education resources arrangement from the perspectives of urban and rural integration,and regional integration.A coordinating system with destination as focus and origin as complementation should be established.Schools and urban communities should play more important roles.Governments,and related companies and enterprises in both destinations and origins should attach great importance to migrant workers' vocational skills training,and improve their enthusiasm to participate in the vocational skills training by strengthening services and increasing input and policy guides.
