title: The education problems of migrant children in Shanghai.
abstract: Due to social discrimination and economic reasons, migrant children in Shanghai often are excluded from local school systems. Resident migrants have established schools for their children but suffer from a lack of supplies, poor conditions, and untrained teachers. Thus far, government attempts at improving the education of migrant children have been less than successful. Suggestions for improving the educational outlook are offered.
