Faculty
Many famous scholars worked in the school such as scientists Prof. Zhou Peiyuan and Qian Weichang, philosopher Prof. Feng Youlan, literati Mr. Zhu Ziqing and language educationist Mr. Zhang Xiong etc. For years, well-known scholars and academicians from Tsinghua University, Peking University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences and other institutions of higher learning have been invited to the school to give lectures and instructions both in the classroom and outside it.
A group of professors from Tsinghua University are teaching the pupils of “senior middle school science experimental class” and “John Ma athletic class” of the school. Senior teachers have constituted over 50% of the total number in our school.
