China Unveils National ‘AI+Education’ Plan to Transform Classrooms by 2030

China has unveiled a sweeping national strategy to integrate artificial intelligence into its education system by 2030, targeting everything from personalized tutoring and teacher certification to predicting demographic shifts and reallocating educational resources.

The “AI+ Education” Action Plan, jointly issued by the Ministry of Education and four other government bodies on April 8, outlines a blueprint to deeply embed AI across all levels of learning, from primary schools to lifelong education. By 2030, the government aims to largely establish a vertically and horizontally connected AI education system.
