Private education is an important growth point in the development of education and an essential force in promoting educational reform, and private vocational education has broad prospects for development. This paper conducts a statistical analysis of the changes in the number of schools, students and teachers in private vocational schools in China from 2009 to 2015. It is found that the number of private secondary vocational schools, the number of new students’ enrollment and that of students’ enrollment have declined year by year, and the number of private secondary vocational schools accounted for about one fifth of all secondary vocational schools in China, while the number of new students’ enrollment and that of students’ enrollment accounted for about one tenth of the total number. In recent years, the ratio of enrollment in private vocational schools has decreased as a whole, which should be paid great attention to. Moreover, some corresponding countermeasures are put forward.
