Founded in 2002, Shenzhen Taoyuanju Sino-Australian Experimental School, formerly known as Shenzhen Tsinghua Experimental School, was jointly founded by the Research Institute of Tsinghua University in Shenzhen, Beijing Tsinghua High School, Tsinghua University Primary School and Shenzhen Aviation City Company. In 2016, Tsinghua withdrew from cooperation and changed to Taoyuanju Group to run the school independently, so it changed to its current name. Out of habit, many parents and websites still refer to it as "Tsinghua Experimental School".
Sino-Australian Experimental is a 12-year school, which consists of a public department, a private department (also known as a bilingual department), a high school department, and an overseas department. Its public department is no different from public primary schools, providing basic teaching services; On this basis, the private department provides personalized education services according to the needs of students' development. The private primary school enrolls 6 classes in each grade, with about 35 students in each class; The Overseas Department enrolls 10 classes of about 25 students per class. Regardless of the class size, students are free to choose between day and boarding classes.
On the whole, the Sino-Australian experiment advocates quality education and pays attention to the cultivation of students' comprehensive ability. There is very little or no homework on a regular basis. Almost all of my spare time is filled with a lot of interest activities. School opening; There are more than 30 elective courses for students to choose from, including children's choral and vocal fundamentals, violin, pottery making, football, basketball, model airplane production, animation production, composition, English sitcom performance, etc. The school's hardware also provides basic support for a variety of interest courses. The school has a football field, swimming pool, basketball court, tennis court, a 2,000-seat gymnasium, and a unique airsoft hall. In less than 20 years, the Sino-Australian experimental shooting team has produced more than 10 national championships. The school has also won the titles of "First-class School in Guangdong Province" and "National Excellent Private Primary and Secondary School" for its excellent teaching quality.
The school is built next to Pingluan Mountain Park, surrounded by mountains and seas, and the environment is very beautiful. Although the official 100% greening rate is a bit exaggerated, it is true that the campus is full of greenery, and all kinds of plants are lush and green, like a park. The living conditions of the students are also very good. The dormitory is a room for 4-6 people, equipped with a wardrobe, air conditioning, electric fan, and a separate bathroom with a water heater. Coin-operated laundry machines are available on each floor. Each class has a full-time life teacher and a night teacher who are responsible for the students' daily life. When it comes to eating, parents can rest assured. The canteen is the first HACCP (Food Hygiene and Control) certified school canteen in China, with three meals a day, as well as milk, fruit and snacks between classes and in the evening. In addition, the school also provides free school bus transportation for boarding students, with more than 360 school bus stops in Shenzhen, Dongguan and Hong Kong.
The fly in the ointment is that in recent years, the teacher turnover of the Sino-Australian experiment has been slightly frequent, which will inevitably have an impact on the quality of teaching.
