Supporting data for "School Readiness Priorities and School Transition Practices in Mainland China: Stakeholder Perspectives"

The transition from kindergarten to primary school marks a significant milestone for millions of children in Mainland China each year, yet this topic remains under-researched. Stakeholder practices during this period are shaped by their perceptions of school readiness and the transition process, and these practices impact children’s experiences of transitioning to school. In the present study, informed by bioecological theory, stakeholders include children, their primary caregivers, kindergarten teachers and primary school teachers. The overarching objective of this research was to investigate the similarities and differences in priorities and perceptions among stakeholders.My dataset includes the data utilised in Chapters Five through Nine.
