Plan focuses on development of education in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region
"We will continue to strengthen teacher exchanges and communication between Beijing and Xiong'an to bring advanced educational concepts here for the local children," Yang said.
Currently, 202 primary and secondary schools and kindergartens from Beijing and Tianjin have educational cooperation projects with 273 schools and kindergartens in Hebei. Tsinghua University and Renmin University of China have provided assistance to 10 high schools in Hebei.
According to the plan, both Beijing and Tianjin will send excellent management teams to Xiong'an to strengthen sharing of resources in the education sector.
To promote cross-regional cooperation, the governments of the three areas will establish education groups, school alliances and partnerships to enhance the sharing of educational resources around Beijing, such as in the cities of Zhangjiakou and Chengde in Hebei, to jointly improve regional educational standards, said the plan.
