Guangzhou's Tianhe district has been giving priority to education development, said Gong Wei, head of the Tianhe bureau of education.

In the past five years, the district has opened 45 new middle and primary schools, as well as kindergartens, increasing enrollment capacity by more than 40,000. Brand schools like the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area School of the Tsinghua University High School and the Tianhe campus of Guangzhou Zhixin High School have also been opened in the district.

In 2022, Guangzhou Xianlie East Road Education Group was established in Tianhe, while four education groups were selected as the cultivation objects of the Guangdong provincial high-quality basic education groups. The district's six education groups cover 32 middle and primary schools with nearly 60,000 students, enabling more children to enjoy high-quality educational resources.

This year, Tianhe plans to newly establish no fewer than two public kindergartens, promote the construction of key projects like the second-phase campus of the Greater Bay Area School of the Tsinghua University High School and the Tianhe Smart City campus of Tianhe Foreign Language School, as well as add more than 4,000 places for students in public basic education.
