Research on the New Development of Early Childhood Education under the Perspective of Population Change

Abstract

Against the backdrop of profound changes in population and family structures, early childhood education faces new opportunities and challenges. Population aging, declining birth rates, and population mobility are reshaping the demand for early childhood education, while changes in family structure further influence the content of education and resource allocation. This paper explores the impact of population changes on the development of early childhood education, analyzes the challenges faced by early childhood education majors in areas such as talent supply and demand, curriculum systems, and training models, and proposes strategies to address these challenges. By constructing resource optimization mechanisms, innovating talent training systems, enabling education development with technology, and drawing on international experiences, the study presents strategies to promote the development of early childhood education majors, providing theoretical support and practical reference for achieving balanced educational development and personalized support.
