Founded in 1889, it is one of the century-old famous schools in Guangzhou, and enjoys the reputation of "opening in the north and opening in the south, and Peizheng in the south".

Distinguished alumni such as Liao Chengzhi, former vice chairman of the National People's Congress, Zou Jiahua, former vice premier of the State Council, and Wang Songming, former deputy secretary of the U.S. Department of the Interior, also added a lot to Peizheng.
The reason why Pei Zheng has been able to go through a hundred years is not unrelated to her outstanding school running results.

The campus has a basketball court, a 350-meter circular track, a football field planted with natural grass, but it is in a state of maintenance all year round, and the utilization rate is relatively low, and the outdoor swimming pool is also dilapidated due to the lack of special maintenance.

Peizheng Middle School was rated as a first-class school in Guangdong Province by the Provincial Department of Education, and won the first and second prizes for the high school and junior high school graduating classes for consecutive years.
Pei Zheng has great respect for historical traditions, and the simple and elegant campus environment with red walls and green tiles is praised, and even attracts many tourists. The graded society system is the embodiment of Pei Zheng's respect for historical traditions, and this system is also retained in Pui Zheng schools in Hong Kong and Macau. Since the establishment of the club system in 1920, each class of students from the fifth grade to establish a club club, including the name of the club, emblem, flag, etc., the name of the club is voted by students in Guangzhou, Hong Kong and Macao, and the flag is designed by Hong Kong and Macao students in turn, these things have been accompanied by every student to complete high school. When they are in school, students generally organize activities in groups of clubs; After leaving the school, the club plays the role of liaison with alumni.
Of course, academic performance is not the only criterion for evaluating students, and Peizheng pays attention to the comprehensive quality of students. Peizheng is one of the earliest schools in Guangzhou to introduce military training, as a key school of football traditional projects, Peizheng has not only set up a football team, but also has a football team, a softball team, a dance team, a wind orchestra, a photography club and other community organizations, in various competitions held in the provinces and cities, these clubs have achieved good results. For major ceremonies such as school anniversaries, Pei Zheng regards them as an important part of moral education activities. In the "Passing on the Torch" ceremony, each level of society selects a representative to carry out the torch relay, and from the hands of alumni in their 90s, the torch is passed to the hands of fifth-grade students one by one, representing the inheritance of the "red and blue spirit" of Peizheng.
