According to the regional education department, in 2016, the Ministry of Education and four other ministries ramped up the assistance. Seventeen paired provinces and cities have collectively dispatched more than 2,100 educational talents to support Xizang in groups, providing mentoring assistance to 21 primary and secondary schools.

Cai Shoukuan, an official from the regional education department, said that over the years, each assistance team in Xizang has focused on the theme of high-quality education development by leveraging the role of mentoring.

"Thanks to the efforts made by these talented professionals, these supported schools have made significant progress in various areas, leading to continuous improvement in the overall education quality of the region," said Cai.
