The present application belongs to the technical field of solar cells, and relates to a p-type bifacial solar cell with partial rear surface field passivation and a preparation method therefor. The solar cell includes a p-type silicon substrate. At the bottom portion of the p-type silicon substrate are arranged, from top to bottom, a silicon oxide passivation layer, an aluminum oxide passivation layer and a rear side silicon nitride anti-reflection layer. A plurality of boron source-doped layers are embedded in the bottom portion of the p-type silicon substrate. Connected to the bottom of each of the boron source-doped layers is a rear side metal electrode layer, which penetrates each of the silicon oxide passivation layer, the aluminum oxide passivation layer and the rear side silicon nitride anti-reflection layer. The preparation method involves making a plurality of partial slots, by means of a laser, from the lower surface of the rear side silicon nitride anti-reflection layer all the way to the bottom of the p-type silicon substrate, and printing a boron source slurry into the slot region to form a high-low junction structure.
