After the establishment of Yuan Dynasty, members of the Kong family in various regions used the government's policy of favoring the descendants of saints to be education officers. The conditions for them to be officials and the ways to be promoted were superior to scholars of other surnames. The preferential treatment policy showed that the conditions for being an official were relatively loose, the position was relatively senior, and the promotion speed was fast. This phenomenon was more prominent in the background of slow promotion of officials in the middle and late Yuan Dynasty. Most of the education officials of the Kong family can do their duty, they actively practiced education and made a contribution to the development of education in Yuan Dynasty.
元朝建立后,各地孔氏族人利用朝廷推恩圣裔的优待政策,大规模出任地方学官。其入仕条件、迁转途径都要优于他姓文人儒士,具体表现为任职条件较宽松、初仕学官起点较高、迁转升序速度较快等。在元代中后期学官升迁拥塞问题日趋严重的背景下,该推恩政策所发挥的作用更为突出。孔氏族人在各地学官任上多能恪尽职守,积极践行教书育人之责,为元代地方教育事业的发展做出了一定程度的贡献。
