The balanced development of the elementary education
sector has been a long goal pursued by the education departments of various
places, and is also an outcome expected by the people. Based on a study of the
equilibrium of the spatial distribution of the capacity saturation models of
all the primary schools in Changsha’s (China) five core districts, the results
show that the overall geographical distribution of the primary schools in
Changsha is relatively balanced, based on the natural characteristics of
Changsha, such as human geography, and the moderate gradient between the
central urban area and the primary schools in the suburbs and outer suburbs. Then
the Theil index model was introduced, and the results of the model analysis
show that the differences between elementary schools in Changsha urban area are
relatively small, and the main differences originate from between districts
rather than within districts, and subtle differences among regionsmainly reflect in the teacher strength.
