This paper provides a general picture of the evolution and transformation of civic education in China’s primary and secondary schools, tracing its trajectory since the country’s reform and opening up. The research examines how civic education has adapted and integrated within the expansive tapestry of China’s socio-economic and political metamorphosis. Through a literature review, the study articulates the progression of civic education through three distinct phases: recovery, initial exploration, and multidimensional improvement. The recovery phase, following the reform and opening up, marked the rejuvenation of civic education, aligning it with the renewed socio-political ethos of China. Civic education was primarily centered on socialist values and fostering a sense of collective identity. The initial exploration phase signified a critical period of curricular transformation, which emphasized nurturing students with a broader understanding of their roles in society, underscoring moral development, social responsibility, and global awareness. The multidimensional improvement phase, commencing in 2014, represents the most recent and perhaps the most transformative period in the evolution of China’s civic education. This phase is marked by the incorporation of legal education into the civic education curriculum, representing a novel approach that intertwined legal consciousness with moral education. The evolution process is showing China’s broader aspirations to modernize and engage actively in the global community necessitating a civic education system consistent with the era of development.
