It is a historical work that reflects the glorious achievements of Tibet's education sector since the peaceful liberation of Tibet for fifty years. China is a unified multi-ethnic country, and the Tibetan ethnic group is an integral part of this big family. Accelerating Tibet's economic and social development and maintaining the great unity of all ethnic groups is not only related to Tibet's prosperity and stability but also to the overall progress of China's socialist modernization. For Tibet to develop and the Tibetan ethnic group to progress, it must rely on science, technology, and education, vigorously cultivate Tibetan talent, and comprehensively improve the quality of all ethnic groups. Developing Tibet's education sector is the fundamental plan for Tibet's revitalization and also an important aspect of maintaining ethnic unity, national unity, and building socialism with Chinese characteristics. Based on detailed historical materials, the author introduces how Tibet's education, as an important part of China's entire education sector, has risen, developed, and grown under the special and harsh conditions on the roof of the world, and systematically explains its development speed, scale, and its significant role in the advancement of education for the Chinese nation.
