Founded in 2001, Beijing Shida Middle School is an excellent private middle school in Haidian District. It is often reported that Shida Middle School has won the high school entrance examination, and the school has advertised that the average score of its experimental class is super first-class in Haidian District, but this information is difficult to verify and is somewhat misleading. The level of the experimental class is rarely disclosed separately, and the experimental class of Shida Middle School implements a mobile system, which is equivalent to the concept of "the group of students with the best grades in our school recently", and perhaps the average score and the number of students in each section are more convincing.
In 2016, the average score of 348 Beijing candidates was 541.83, and 8 candidates scored more than 570 points, and the total score of 168 students was higher than 550 and 540, respectively. In 2017, a total of 274 people were admitted to key middle schools, and 190 people entered Haidian's "six small schools" to continue their studies, of which 77 people were admitted to the High School Affiliated to Beijing Normal University. In the past three years, the average score of the reference students and the number of students in the high grades have been relatively stable, with the top 40% of the students in the school and the top 20% of the students in Haidian District.
While many schools are hyping up quality education, Shida Middle School is implementing militarized management, and its management methods are very strict. Military training is indispensable for militarized management, and it is the characteristic of Shida to arrange a lot of time to study and write down the school rules when entering military training. School rules stipulate that students are not allowed to bring snacks, drinks, fire, and electronic products into the campus; Smoking, cheating, "early" love and wearing sneakers priced at more than 400 yuan are red threads that must not be touched. Shida Middle School has strong execution, surprise inspections are commonplace, and students who violate the rules may be found and punished, and the school rules will be relatively relaxed in the third stage of junior high school for the purpose of reducing pressure. The management of the teaching staff is also very strict, and the front-line staff are required to live on campus on weekdays in principle, and the school will also organize new teachers to learn its unique teaching system, which may provide some comfort to the students.
In the early days of the school, 90% of the teachers in Beida Middle School were selected from the High School Affiliated to Beijing Normal University, and in the following years, Shida Middle School tended to recruit teachers from other provinces with teaching experience, and some teachers did not speak standard Mandarin. In terms of the employment of young teachers, Beida Middle School prefers graduates of Capital Normal University, and the employment threshold and salary standard are lower than those of public famous schools, and the principal also said in 2013 that the primary characteristic of excellent teachers is knowledge, rather than professional titles. At present, the total number of special teachers, subject leaders, class teacher leaders, subject teaching and research personnel, and excellent teachers in the school will not exceed 30, and the teaching force is not outstanding.
Shida Middle School does not have too much homework on a daily basis, and the lights will be turned off on time at 21:40 according to the schedule regulations, and most students said that they can complete all their homework before the lights go out. In the first and second stages of junior high school, the school is not allowed to bring novels and comics, after-school reading is limited to literary masterpieces, and the school can accommodate 1,000 people in the book reading room is only for famous books and auxiliary teaching services, and the residential school mode is also more convenient to arrange evening self-study and Q&A courses, so parents do not have to worry about the impact of residential life on learning.
Shida Middle School also has the characteristics of morning exercise and weekly test. The students got up at 06:30 to wash, boys and girls needed to complete the 1600m and 1200m morning run training respectively, and the students gained a healthy body after three years of hard training. The weekly test will be held every Sunday at 19:20, the time lasts for about an hour, the teacher attaches great importance to the test results, if the mid-term and final grades drop, or if the student falls behind, the teacher will be interviewed.
Previously, the experimental class of Shida School accounted for about 1/2 of the total number of classes, and if you failed the placement test, you don't have to be too nervous, and the end of the semester is another window period, and Shida implements a floating system management method. In order to motivate students, the school has set up a display board for outstanding students on campus, covering many aspects such as total scores, individual subject scores, and grade progress, and usually 70% of students can get the opportunity to show. It's not so easy to get a photo with the principal, and the top 100 students in each school year will be awarded this award. Parents don't have to care too much about the experimental class, everything in Shida School speaks with grades.
Parents who are interested in applying for Shida Secondary School can pay attention to the school's official website, and the school will generally release the enrollment brochure at the end of the year. In the past two years, the school has required to bring resumes and award certificates, and the screening atmosphere has become stronger and stronger. In 2017, the tuition fee for students admitted to the school is 44,000 yuan/year, the dormitory fee is 3,000 yuan/year, and the meal fee is 8,500 yuan/year. The teachers of Shida Middle School are relatively mediocre, but the teachers are very responsible, and their outstanding achievements in recent years have caused great repercussions in Haidian District, and a large number of parents will sign up during the enrollment stage every year. Parents are called on not only to pay attention to grades when choosing a school, campus life plays a great role in children's psychological growth, and the management model of Shida Middle School is too strict for multi-math children.
