Abstract


As economic reforms gradually progressed with the global integration and waves of decentralisation,a market approach to education in China began to develop through neo-liberal practices in the field of English as a foreign language(EFL)learning. The challenge of the marketisation of China’s early EFL education has emerged and the issue of equity in EFL education arising from the market-based charging for education resources.
