Special class for 13,000 from Xinjiang
Print Edition
MORE than 13,000 students will attend “Xinjiang classes” in economically developed regions this year, according to the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region education authority.
Almost 10,000 will attend high schools. Currently, 93 high schools across China offer Xinjiang classes, part of a national program to train talent for the region.
The remaining students will attend vocational schools.
This year, about 77 percent of the students come from Aksu, Hotan, Kashgar and Kizilsu Kirgiz prefectures in southern Xinjiang.
The Xinjiang classes program, which began 17 years ago, has sent 90,000 students from Xinjiang to study in more economically developed regions.
Over 21,000 have graduated from university and returned to the region, according to Xinjiang’s education department.
Xinjiang classes have provided students from remote parts of the region with the opportunity to study at high-quality schools.
The region is home to 47 ethnic groups, including Han, Kazak, Mongol, Tajik and Uygur.
