Teaching Staff
In the 1930s and 1940s, Qian Weichang, a prominent Chinese physicist and Zhang Xiaohu, a noted music theoretician taught here. At present, there are 146 teaching staff. Ten of them are 'Super Degree teachers' and 76 of them have 'Senior Degrees'. There are 61 classes, 11 of which are experimental classes. 3,009 students are enrolled at the school, of whom 495 are in the experimental classes.
At the start of the 21st century, the municipal government and the Municipal Committee of the CPC emphasized repeatedly that more schools should be set up following the example of Nankai High School and Yaohua High School.
The staff are guided by the late Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping's idea that "Education must meet the needs of modernization and face the world and the future" and by CPC General secretary, Chinese president Jiang Zemin's Three Represents (Simplified Chinese: 三个代表) theory.
