ABSTRACT

Special fund for education is the special financial fund allocated by governments to educational institutions in the form of appropriation. In order to ensure the supply of education resources, support financially the development of education and deepen the reform of education system, it has been an urgent issue for local governments to increase their special financial funds step by step, study the index system of performance evaluation on special funds for education and scientifically evaluate the performance of special funds for education. This paper aimed to strengthen the development plan of higher education institutions by taking Guangdong government’s special financial fund for the development plan of "Chong Bu Qiang, i.e. constructing first-class, making up for shortcomings, and enhancing characteristics". The plan was reinforced with reference to the connotation of "constructing first-class, making up for shortcomings, and enhancing characteristics" in colleges and universities. The scientific selection of performance evaluation indexes of special funds for education and the progressive assignment of values were carried out using the Delphi method and analytic hierarchy process. Additionally, a measurement index system for the performance of the special financial funds for "constructing first-class, making up for shortcomings, and enhancing characteristics" was constructed. The purpose of all these efforts was to provide empirical reference for the performance evaluation research on special financial funds and strategic suggestions for the accurate and effective performance evaluation of special financial funds for higher education.
