Abstract
Abstract Aims To understand the reasons for the decline in the birth rate of our country, the effects of the decline in the birth rate and the countermeasures needed to reduce the birth rate, as well as the urgency of the reform of education, especially art education. Methods Using a mathematical statistical analysis method, the decline of the birth rate in our country was statistically analysed, and the influence of education, especially art education, was discussed. Results The results show that the birth rate of China's population decreased significantly, that is, from 36% in 1949 to 23.3% in 1987 and from 12.95% in 2016 to 10.8% at present. This has a significant impact on the manpower of all walks of life. Students at all levels and all kinds of schools have brought about a greater impact. Higher education, especially art education, has a greater impact. Conclusions In the face of the decline in the birth rate, corresponding countermeasures must be taken to strengthen the development of maternal and child health care and medical resources. In-depth reform or correction of the current compulsory education must be assessed in order to relieve the worries of women who have given birth so that the birth rate increases within the framework of a reasonable, normal span of time and demonstrates smooth development. In order to ensure that China has sufficient human resources and enough students at all levels and all kinds of schools, the reform of art education is deepened, thus facilitating training of the talents of world-class masters.

The decline in the birth rate of our country has led to a decline in the age-appropriate population of higher education
Leaders and principals of educational institutions at all levels must have a high sense of responsibility, conscientiously implement the connotation of compulsory education in our country and truly make compulsory education come into practice
Summary
Under the condition of a certain level of family income, it is impossible for parents to raise more children with more money. The mainstream view in academic circles is basically recognised that, at a certain stage of development or within a certain range of per capita income-level changes, the improvement of the economic development level increases the relative cost of raising children, women’s education level and social status, which leads to the decline in fertility rate. This is because families with better educated parents pay more attention to the education and training of their children, and the rising cost of all aspects urges couples to consciously reduce the number of children. The number preference associated with child-bearing collapses, giving rise to the quality preference
