BEIJING — China’s Ministry of Education has decided to check the recruitment qualifications of secondary vocational schools and publish the results on a regular basis.

Provincial-level education administrative departments were asked to coordinate and organize inspections of vocational schools to find out if there have been serious malpractices involving student recruitment and management, according to a ministry circular.

Authorities should also check school funding, infrastructure, teaching staff, training and internships.

The ministry also asked provincial authorities to publish the list of qualified schools in their respective provinces by the end of May each year.
