Description
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 impact of government schooling policy on ethnic minority students in China. Xin Su sheds light on previous understandings of the Xinjiang class policy by directly involving the experiences and perceptions of students, families, and caregivers. Su contends that personal difficulties including cultural separation and the strain of a prolonged period of detachment have been neglected in evaluations of these programs. By delving into the intricacies of this policy, this book illuminates its profound implications for social integration, cultural preservation, and the future of educational equity among ethnic minority students.

“This book approaches the Xinjiang classes with sensitivity to important issues relating both to ethnic identity and China's national unity. It is balanced and fair. The methodology involving close study of relevant individuals and use of secondary literature shows wide-ranging knowledge, judiciously applied. The book definitely contributes meaningfully to the existing literature."
