More Chinese migrant workers have opted to bring their children to the city for quality education, rather than leaving them behind in the countryside.

Luo Yongping, who has toiled for nine years as a carpenter in Jiangxi's provincial capital Nanchang, finally managed to secure a seat for his son at a reputable primary school in the city.

In September, the boy was crammed into an overcrowded first-grade classroom at the primary school affiliated with Nanchang University.
