Abstract: The rural teacher development policy plays a key role in cultivating high-quality and sufficient rural teachers in China. This study aims to apply a bibliometric analysis to explore the rural teacher development policy in China’s current education system. The advanced retrieval function of Web of Science (WoS) is used for the literature data, the core collection of Web of Science is selected for the database, and the time span of literature retrieval is consistent with the selected literature. We apply Citespace to analyze the spatial dimension, research paradigm and research method, research theme, research hotspots and co-occurrence of keywords, the evolution process of research hotspots and content of rural teacher development policy in China. It is found that with the deepening of the reform and development of rural elementary education, scholars not only pay attention to the exploration of the deep mechanism of rural teacher policy, but also to data-oriented diversified empirical research.
