民办 versus 公办

[trevelyan]

I'm always getting 民办 and 公办 mixed-up, as in 民办校 and 公办校. Anyone know the difference?

公办 would be government run. 民办 would be non-governmental, and my inclination is to say it would be funding by local people or an organization for public benefit - ie the 民办教师, as opposed to for profit (which would be 私立). I'm not sure how clear-cut a line that is though.

公办学校的定义

定义1：

目前划分的标准主要有二:一是按照学校经费的主要来源,将国有资产（包括财政拨款和全民所有制企业事业单位的资金）所办的学校称为公办学校,其它经济形式举办的学校称为民办学校

源自: 关于制定我国《民办教育法》若干问题的思考 《江西教育科研》 2000年 王洪明
