    Form 20-F for the Fiscal Year Ended February 28, 2023

    Response dated September 15, 2023

    File No. 001-34900

Dear Ms. Thompson:

Reference is made to the letter we received from
the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) dated October 3,
2023 (the “October 3 Comment Letter”) regarding the Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended
February 28, 2023 (the “2023 Form 20-F”) of TAL Education Group (the “Company”).

We set forth below our response
to the comment contained in the October 3 Comment Letter. For your convenience, we have reproduced the Staff’s comment in italicized
boldface type below and keyed our response accordingly. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms used herein shall have the same meanings
ascribed to them in the 2023 Form 20-F.

Form 20-F for the Fiscal Year Ended February 28, 2023

Item 16I. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent
Inspections, page 140

1. We note from your response to comment 3 that all of your “consolidated foreign operating entities that use variable interest
entities or similar structures are incorporated or otherwise organized in the PRC.” It appears from disclosures in your Form 20-F
that you have at least one subsidiary in Hong Kong. Please confirm our assumption, if true, that your reference to “consolidated
foreign operating entities that use variable interest entities or similar structures [and that] are incorporated or otherwise organized
in the PRC” includes any subsidiaries organized or incorporated in Hong Kong. Otherwise, please supplementally clarify the jurisdictions
in which your consolidated foreign operating entities are organized or incorporated and confirm, if true, that you have disclosed the
percentage of your shares or the shares of your consolidated operating entities owned by governmental entities in each foreign jurisdiction
in which you have consolidated operating entities.

The
Company respectfully advises the Staff that the reference in the Company’s prior response to comment 3 to “consolidated
foreign operating entities that use variable interest entities or similar structures” does not include its subsidiaries in Hong
Kong. The Company supplementally submits that, in addition to its consolidated foreign operating entities that use variable interest entities
or similar structures and are incorporated or otherwise organized in the PRC (which, as defined in the 2023 Form 20-F, excludes Taiwan,
Hong Kong and Macau only in the context of describing PRC laws, regulations and other legal or tax matters therein), the Company also
has subsidiaries that are incorporated or otherwise organized in foreign jurisdictions outside the United States, including the PRC, Hong
Kong, Singapore, and the United Kingdom. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, no governmental entities in any such foreign jurisdictions
in which the Company has consolidated operating entities owns any shares in the Company or any of its consolidated foreign operating entities.
