Guangdong Province is recognized as a famous school, and there are only 4 Olympiad classes in junior high school enrollment in the province. Those who can be admitted to Huafu are the top students in the province, and Huafu is also considered to be a concentration of geniuses.

The predecessor of Huafu can be traced back to the establishment of Guangzhou Gezhi Academy in 1888. In the 20th century, with the adjustment of colleges and universities by the state, in 1952, the High School Affiliated to Sun Yat-sen University, the High School Affiliated to Lingnan University, the High School Affiliated to Guangdong University of Arts and Sciences, and the High School Affiliated to South China United University merged to form the High School Affiliated to South China Normal University, and in 1982, it was renamed the High School Affiliated to South China Normal University. From the revolutionary Tan Tiandu to the musician Xian Xinghai...... As a well-known century-old school in Guangzhou, Huafu has cultivated many high-quality talents with both ability and political integrity.

Huafu is directly under the leadership of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Education, and is under the dual management of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Education and South China Normal University. From 2011 to 2015, Huafu won the championship of the average score of Guangzhou High School Entrance Examination for five consecutive years. In 2016, the average score of Huafu in the high school entrance examination was pulled off the championship, which made many people think that Huafu may fall off the altar, is this really the case? It may be too arbitrary to make this judgment based on the results of the high school entrance examination, which is only one of the criteria for measuring the quality of a school, and at the same time, many students in Huafu participate in various invitational competitions, and they are inevitably underprepared for the high school entrance examination; In addition, many students have been promoted to Huafu High School through internal selection before the high school entrance examination, and if they do not take the high school entrance examination, the average score of the high school entrance examination will naturally be lowered. Therefore, at least for a short time, Huafu is still a well-deserved No.1 junior high school in Guangzhou.

Huafu has a strong teaching force. As of September 2017, there are nearly 200 full-time teachers in the university, including 3 with doctoral degrees and 40.4% with master's degrees. There are 2 senior teachers, 5 special teachers, and 102 senior teachers; 13 people have won the titles of "National Model Teacher", "National Excellent Teacher" and "National Excellent Educator"; 6 hosts of Guangdong Famous Teacher Studio; 1 host of the famous class teacher studio in Guangdong Province...... The list of other accolades is endless. Excellent teachers have also brought a series of outstanding teaching achievements, and Huafu has 2 National Outstanding Achievement Awards for Innovative Teaching; 2 first prizes and 4 second prizes of Guangdong Provincial General Education Teaching and Research Achievements; 6 Guangdong Provincial Education and Scientific Research Achievement Awards (Huang Hua Award), etc.

In terms of teaching, Huafu attaches great importance to competitions in mathematics and other subjects. According to parents, although the school emphasizes all-round development, the depth and breadth of learning content in competition subjects (except Chinese and English) are not comparable to other schools. In the first year of junior high school, there is a lot of homework arranged by Huafu, although there will be a certain decrease in the second and third years of junior high school, but during the weekends and winter and summer vacations, students' homework will still "skyrocket", and the weekends and winter and summer vacations of Huafu are also slightly reduced compared with other schools, and the pressure on students can be imagined. In addition, since 2016, Huafu has started to try small class teaching, with 4 classes of 30 students per class that year, and 4 classes with 35 students per class in 2017.

As a concentration of geniuses, Huafu has a strong learning atmosphere, and its teachers and students have summed up a unique "five links" learning method, namely: preview, listening, reviewing, homework, and induction. Since entering Huafu, this learning method will be popularized among students, and the "five links" learning method is also particularly efficient, allowing students to naturally devote their time to learning.

The school's "focus on all-round development" can be reflected in club activities, the school has many clubs and elective courses, many of these activities are cross-grade, and the communication between students of different grades is more conducive to their own development. Among the clubs of Huafu, the four major media (Huafu Student Television, Student Broadcasting Station, INFO Magazine, and Huafu Photography Club) are the most popular among students. In addition, there are many large-scale activities such as school sports meeting, Huafu Spring Festival Gala, charity sale, etc., most of which are planned, organized and implemented by the students themselves, so that students' execution and organizational skills can be well exercised. It is precisely because of these in-depth and meaningful activities that many students who graduated from Huafu University even think that the club activities in college are not as interesting as those in junior high and high school.

Due to its location in the old city, Huafu's accommodation conditions are faced with the shortcomings of aging facilities and narrow space, such as having to flush the toilet by itself, which is a big gap compared with some new private schools. The dormitory is a 6-person room, bunk beds, although the facilities are old, but there are air conditioning, hot water systems, etc., which can provide students with more convenient living conditions. There are standard football fields, swimming pools and other sports venues in the school, and the canteen meals are not delicious, but the pricing is reasonable, the classroom equipment is modern, and there are free pads to provide. In addition, Huafu is also extremely concerned about the mental health of students, and the school has a special psychological research room.

The admission of Huafu is divided into two rounds of selection, the first round is to screen resumes, and all fresh primary school graduates can participate, but they need to have a Guangdong hukou. Among all the students who participated in the first round of selection, 500 students were selected to enter the second round of interviews, and finally the final admission was made based on the interview performance.
