Minority­girl education in China  is a  new  field of research. This study seeks to 
explore  into this field  through reviewing  and  analyzing  the  available studies that  have 
been done. The  literature  has been collected  through searching  library holdings,
Computer Assisted Research Search, and online searching. The criteria against which the 
literature is to be reviewed and analyzed are in the form of questions and are divided into 
six categories of introduction, theoretical framework, method, results, discussion 
(conclusion/recommendations), and abstract or summary; so that all the aspects of a

study can be examined. The research field of minority­girl education in China is found to 
be improving. A summary of the current  educational practices concerning minority­girl 
education in China and the challenges the minority girls face when it comes to education 
is made after  the  literature  collected  has been reviewed. Recommendations on future 
research orientations are made based on the findings.
