Abstract: Driven by the imperial examination system and family learning traditions, clan education of the Sui and Tang dynasties (581-960) underwent profound transformation. During this period, clan education, primarily led by prominent aristocratic families, established a core knowledge system grounded in Confucian classics and extended to poetry, prose and policy discourse. It was systematically implemented through multi-layered institutions such as family schools, clan academies, and private academies, covering preschool education, classical studies, and imperial examination preparation. More than being aimed to maintain social status and cultivate examination candidates, it played a crucial role in transmitting familial scholarship and consolidating clan cohesion. This enabled it to achieve multiple objectives, including sustaining clan influence, reinforcing cultural authority and promoting regional cultural prosperity. The institutionalization and popularization of Sui and Tang clan education laid a significant foundation for the educational model of combining farming and studying in the Song, Yuan and later dynasties, or the 10th century and later. Its core concepts and practical models continue to offer valuable insights and references for promoting China's fine traditional culture, advancing educational equality, and building collaborative educational systems in the new era.
