Abstract
This paper analyses the education expenditure efficiency of 31 provinces in 2009 with the method of DEA. The conclusion is: the highest efficiency is in central China; South China region is above the average; the technical efficiency is in North China and Northeast is among the best, but the total efficiency and scale efficiency is low. Scale efficiency in Northwest and Southwest region is higher, but the technical and total efficiency is low; the efficiency value in East China is in below average.
