The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of Social Support on the adaptation of rural left-behind children’s schools in Shanxi Province. This study divides Social Support into Government Support, School Support and Family Support. School adaptation is divided into three aspects: learning adaptation, relationship adaptation and behavior adaptation. In this paper, 500 left-behind children in 222 rural primary and secondary schools in Shanxi Province were investigated by questionnaire. Using exploratory factor analysis method, the key factors of Social Support influencing School Adaptation are analyzed. The method of linear regression was used to analyze variables and test hypotheses. Exploratory factor analysis showed that there was a correlation between Social Support and School Adaptation. In the study, it has been found that School Support had a significant positive effect on School Adaptation, Family Support had a partial positive effect on School Adaptation, and Government Support had a partial positive effect. Therefore, attention should be paid to the impact of Social Support on the School Adaptation of left-behind children in rural areas. Finally, a logical path of support is proposed to strengthen Social Support and improve the School Adaptation of left-behind children.
