Rural education has always been the focus of the academic circles. Along with the gap between the city and country being larger, the education experts and scholars want to find a effective solution. The teachers are always the pillars of education.If the local educational department and the rural primary schools pay much less attention to the trainee teachers’s vacational adaptation problems than their working performance, these young men would suffer a tough time. Because these young trainee teachers just graduated from the university, they’d like to do something different.But the reality is cruel:the rough working envrioment, the challenge of the work... It’s too hard for them to get through all by themselves.They need help. The writer started the research on the basic of the making the literature review of the studies about the new teachers’professional development.The writer did quesionnare survey to newly employed(2012) rural primary schools’ trainee teachers from CityD in2013, and interviewed two of them, tried to find out the vacational adaptation problems of the rural primary schools’ trainee teachers. In the end of the paper, the writer attempted to put forward some advices for these problems.The survey included the background of these rural primary schools’ trainee teachers:age, gender,education background information, teaching subject; the overall adaptation situation to the teacher career, the adaptation situation to the job; the adaptation situation to the materail environment of the rural primary school; the adaptation situation to the cultural environment of the rural primary school.Through the survey, the writer found out the rural primary schools’trainee teachers’ main vacational adaptation problems are:lack of career identity; their working abilities can satisfy the need of the work; can’t adapt to the hardly materil environment of the rural primary schools; can’t get used to the the manage ways of the leaders of the school and can’t handle well the relationships between the colleagues.
