Xuefu primary school is a full-time public school which is governed by the Nanshan department of Education. It is located in the centre of Nanshan economy and culture zone. It was established in September, 2001. The school has two teaching divisions—Haizhu and Haiwen, which have a total of 44 classes, nearly 2000 students, and 160 employees. The campus covers over 23000 square meters, 16000 of which are building space. It is well-equipped and first-rate, with a modern indoor gym, meeting rooms, multi-function studio, music rooms, laboratories, computer rooms, and beautiful playgrounds. The school's philosophy is to help everyone develop and become useful people. We aim to promote the development of each student. Our hope is that each student will become a well-rounded, good-mannered, and intelligent individual. And the vitality and vigor of Xuefu Primary School comes from the school's basic principles: To encourage every individual to develop as fully as possible.      At Xuefu Primary School, the welfare of teachers is as important as the students' well-being. With emphasis on career planning, we promote the development of each teacher, helping him or her to outline a career path. With the help of the Educational Creation Awards and the activities which focus on keeping the teachers' skills up-to-date, the teachers’ teaching technique continues to mature.     After three years training in practical psychology, the teachers have learned not only how to love and care for students better but also how to enjoy their jobs better. The duty of each teacher here is to create a strong foundation for each child. We cultivate young people who will be learned, healthy competitive and cooperative. Our school has daringly reformed the old evaluation system, which has greatly improved moral education. With the “Growing Plan of Xuefu Youth,” we evaluate a pupil on various skills rather than simply on knowledge, so that we can provide a broad space for the pupil's complete development. The Growing Plan lays emphasis on virtue and habits, school achievements, after school reading, English skills, calculating ability, physical education, art appreciation and social skills.     As a progressive school, we vigorously pursue the development of our school courses. We have interesting classes such as “learn to live,” “learn to survive,” and “campus English.” Also, we have courses in cooking and carpentry What's more, we are experimenting with bilingual education. Our school has reformed its education plan to help students to actively participate in social life and to better serve society.     Xuefu Primary School is a young school with the teachers' average age of only 30. Our achievements thus far are due not only to our leaders, but also to the hard work of these young teachers and young students. Our school is booming with inexhaustible vitality. “I'm young and I create” is our motto. Today, our primary school teachers and students with the sweat of hard work have created the best education program in Nanshan. Tomorrow, they will certainly write a still more brilliant chapter in the lives of the people in Nanshan. We truly believe that our school will have a splendid future.
