It is not an exaggeration to use "Qingyu out of blue" in Baihe Foreign Chinese School, which is the only private school among the five famous junior high schools in Shenzhen. The predecessor of Baiwai was the branch of Shenzhen Foreign Chinese School, which was originally jointly established by Shenzhen Baihe Holding Group Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Foreign Chinese School. Since September 2014, Lily Holding Group has implemented self-schooling, and the school has been renamed as "Shenzhen Lily Foreign Chinese School".
The results of the high school entrance examination have always been among the best in Shenzhen. From 2007 to 2012, the average score of the examination ranked second in the city for six consecutive years; From 2013 and 2015 to 2017, the total average score of the high school entrance examination won the first place in the city for 4 times. In terms of specific data, the number of students admitted to the four major universities in 2017 was 293, with a rate of 66.59%; 357 students were admitted to the Eight Universities, with a rate of 81.14%; 371 students were admitted to the top ten, with a top ten rate of 84.32%, ranking first in the city in all three indicators. It is worth mentioning that the 2017 candidates are the first students after the implementation of self-schooling, and the high school entrance examination still maintains a dominant momentum.
To achieve such excellent results in the high school entrance examination, of course, it is inseparable from the enrollment method with a selection mechanism. There are three ways to obtain the qualification to participate in the entrance examination of 100 foreign countries, one is the online self-recommendation lottery, parents need to upload their children's score certificates, and only after the school screens and passes the lottery can they obtain the lottery qualification, with a winning rate of about 45%; the second is the students with excellent results in the "Huizhi Cup" comprehensive ability competition; The third is the students who study in Chunlei Primary School. In 2017, Chinese accounted for 60 points of the total score, and English and Mathematics each accounted for 120 points. In previous years, it was 80 points in Chinese, 100 points in English, and 120 points in mathematics.
Baiwai is located near Lily Villa in Longgang District, adjacent to Chunlei Lily Kindergarten and Chunlei Primary School, all three of which were founded by Ling Guoqiang, chairman of Shenzhen Lily Holding Group, and have a good reputation in the education industry. Due to the long establishment time (2002), the teaching buildings and dormitory buildings of Baiwai are relatively old, but the 800-meter track, football field, basketball court, library, dance studio, music room and piano room and other cultural and sports activities are still relatively complete. According to parents, Baiwai's classrooms are equipped with air conditioning, and the spacing between seats is small, and the classrooms are not spacious.
In terms of class setting, there are key classes and ordinary classes, and the key classes are called English experimental classes, which are usually 1 to 4 classes. The English experimental class concentrates students with good academic performance, and the class has a strong learning atmosphere, except that the English experimental class is almost no different from the ordinary class in terms of teaching and teaching materials.
As a foreign Chinese school, Baiwai attaches great importance to English teaching. The English class is taught in small classes from the beginning of the year, with two English teachers in each class, each with half a student. THE THREE "1" ARE THE NATIONAL CURRICULUM TEXTBOOK, THE INTERNATIONAL VERSION OF THE TEXTBOOK "GO FOR IT" AND THE SCHOOL-BASED TEXTBOOK "A TICKET TO TOMORROW", AND THE "X" REFERS TO ALL KINDS OF ENGLISH ACTIVITIES AND FOREIGN LANGUAGE ELECTIVE COURSES OFFERED IN THE SCHOOL. Baiwai also pays attention to the cultivation of students' spoken English, and there are often English movie dubbing, VOA English news reading and other links in the class. In addition, the school has a strong atmosphere for learning foreign languages, and the difficulty of the English test is much greater than that of other schools, almost reaching the high school level.
The overall teaching progress of Baiwai is fast and more difficult than other schools. In addition to the first and second years of junior high school, the English class time is more than that of other schools, and its mathematics, physics and chemistry subjects are also more difficult than many schools, and the progress is slightly slower than that of Shenzhen Senior High School. In terms of homework, the amount of homework in English is large, and the amount of homework in other subjects is normal, but in the third year of junior high school, the amount of homework in all subjects is very large. Students' homework for the day needs to be completed in the evening self-study, and the teachers of each subject will take turns to manage and answer questions during the evening self-study period.
In the first and second stages of junior high school, the school will not announce the grade ranking after the exam, but the class teacher will announce the class ranking; In each monthly exam in the third year of junior high school, the school will announce the names of the top 60 students in the grade, and only the scores and rankings outside the 60 will be announced. In the first and second years of junior high school, the school does not organize make-up classes, and there are intensive classes in the third stage of junior high school, which generally start after school on Friday, and charge more than 1,000 yuan for a semester, and students can go to school or not. In addition, make-up classes will be arranged for junior high school students during holidays and Sundays.
In terms of extracurricular activities, the "Five Major Festivals" of Baiwai - Foreign Language Festival, Science and Technology Festival, Sports Festival, Art Festival and Food Festival - are very popular among students. The highlight of the event is the Foreign Language Festival, which takes place every year around Christmas and includes an English Corner, an English Karaoke Contest, a flea market, a foreign culture expo and a garden party. In the first and second years of junior high school, the school also has club classes in the afternoon every day, there are no grade requirements, and students are free to choose, including table manners, poetry appreciation, etc. In addition, Baiwai's music class also requires every student to learn erhu.
Baiwai adopts a boarding system, and students who live near the school can apply for day school. The dormitories are 4 to 6 people per room and are equipped with air conditioning and water heaters, a desk and a wardrobe per person. There are sockets in the corridors of the dormitory for students to use hair dryers, and there is a public telephone on each floor, which requires students to purchase 200 phone cards to use. Students are not allowed to bring snacks and beverages into the school, only fruits, milk and cereals, and there is no kiosk. In addition, the school does not provide laundry services (including self-service), and the lights are turned off at 22:20 every night.
In terms of catering, students eat in a buffet format, with 8 to 10 dishes a day, often renewed, with a signature of paper-wrapped chicken, occasional french fries and shrimp chips, and after-dinner fruits, about 30 yuan a day. The first, second, third and male and female students ate separately, and sorted the tableware back into the recycling box after the meal, and the students generally had a high level of satisfaction with the meals in the cafeteria.
