These measures have not only alleviated the financial difficulties faced by families, but also eased parental concerns regarding their children's education.
From 2012 to 2022, the central government invested more than 251.51 billion yuan ($35.34 billion) in the region's education. At present, the region has 3,409 schools and more than 944,000 students.
As beneficiaries of the policy, Tseten Dorge's four children, including Sichod Drolma, are at school.
"When I was a boy, my family could not afford for me to go to school. Now my children can go to school free of charge to learn knowledge and skills," Tseten Dorge says.
