Research, practice, and policy interest in social and emotional learning (SEL) has increased in China over the past ten years. This chapter defines SEL as instructional efforts and systemic interventions that engage students, educators, parents and communities to promote safe, supportive, and optimally challenging schools and classrooms. There are two frontlines for SEL as introduced into China: addressing social and emotional skills and promoting basic educational quality. Each of these is the focus of the present chapter. The chapter also suggests priorities to address over the coming years for the field of SEL to thrive in China.
