Abstract

The development of rural preschool education can not be separated from rural early childhood teachers.  Research has indicated that social support is associated with better work performance of teachers. The social support scale was used to study the social support status of rural preschool teachers in Yunnan Province of China. The results show that the social support level of rural early childhood teachers is medium; the level of perceived social support is influenced by factors such as age, total monthly income, and educational level.
