Shanghai Tin Ka Ping Middle School is a partial boarding full-time secondary school, built in 1997 by Mr. Tin Ka Ping, a famous Hong Kong industrialist.

Private secondary schools in the system often face a huge gap between junior and senior high school branches, and Tin Ka Ping Middle School is no exception. However, different from several private schools such as Xinhe, Yangbo and Fengfan, which also belong to the new Jing'an District, the quality of running schools in the high school grades of Tianjiabing Middle School is obviously higher, with low entry and high exit, and a certain ability to go on to higher education. In the past two years, the admission score of Tin Ka Ping High School has hovered around 520 points, which is on the low side; In 2018, the school's admission score in Jing'an District was only 511 points, ranking at the bottom of the district's key echelon, and comparable to the level of ordinary high schools in the middle and lower reaches. In terms of further education, the online rate of college entrance examination in Tianjiaping Middle School has always remained at about 90% in recent years, ranking among the top private high schools in Shanghai.

The annual enrollment of Tin Ka Ping High School is only 150 students, and there are 4 teaching classes. Tian Gao has set up a curriculum experimental class among the four teaching classes of the grade, which has the best quality of students and is basically composed of students from the junior high school of the school. In the third year of junior high school, the school will sign an agreement with the top 80% of the students in the grade, allowing them to fill in the high school with their fifth choice, and they can enter the high school experimental class if they reach the agreed score (depending on the specific situation of each year). In addition, Tin Ka Ping Secondary School has a scholarship system and offers substantial discounts to students in the experimental class, which has attracted some high-quality students. In the data of the college entrance examination rate of Tian Gao in previous years, the course experimental class is the main force to tackle tough problems, and the class has also become an important part of the brand building of Tian Jiabing High School, and the teaching resources are inclined to it.

Tin Ka Ping Middle School has excellent teachers, with 50% of senior teachers in high school and 45% of teachers with master's degree or above. The teaching style of the school is tight, the teaching is based on the training of test-taking ability, the teachers are serious and responsible, and will exert appropriate pressure on the students in their studies, and the teaching quality and campus atmosphere are quite recognized by the parents of the students. However, due to the objective living environment of private high schools, Tian Jiaping's teaching team still has a certain degree of mobility, and the frequency of teacher replacement is high, which has a certain impact on the consistency of curriculum teaching.

The reform of the 2017 college entrance examination in Shanghai abolished the division of arts and sciences, and the selection attribute of mathematics was more prominent. Since 2015, Tin Ka Ping High School has implemented a classroom teaching of mathematics for the first year of senior high school, and the ability of students is stratified, and the focus of students at different levels will be different. In fact, hierarchical classes have become the norm in today's Shanghai high schools, but most schools only teach the "three primary three subjects" out of six choices, and few schools extend it to the teaching of the "big three subjects" other than language and mathematics.

In terms of school-based curriculum, Tin Ka Ping Secondary School pays more attention to experiential teaching and is not very utilitarian. Every year, the senior high school offers more than 30 enrichment courses for the first and second years of senior high school, among which the interdisciplinary integration course is a characteristic project that Tin Ka Ping Middle School is proud of, and this kind of enrichment course is typical of STEM courses. The STEM course aims to break the boundaries of traditional disciplines and improve students' overall literacy in science and technology. The rest of the enrichment courses include sports, arts, international understanding and thinking, etc., which are relatively complete and have a certain breadth of choice, and some courses will be supplemented by external lecturers. In addition, for the students in the experimental class, the second semester of the first year of senior high school will also go to Hong Kong to complete a short-term study tour.

Tin Ka Ping Secondary School has rich and active club activities, and most of the high school clubs are led by instructors, but the school does not intervene too much in the development of clubs. Among them, the robot club project has become a characteristic brand of the school, and has a certain competition strength in China, and the team has won many robot competition awards in Shanghai, national and even international over the years. Students in the International Division will participate in a wide range of extracurricular activities in the form of electives, including golf, rugby, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, a cappella, film and television production, and more.

The International Division of Tien Ka Ping High School, formerly known as the Korean Division, initially admitted only a small number of Korean students. The U.S. high school curriculum for Chinese students began in 2014 and is relatively young. At present, Tin Ka Ping Middle School's international curriculum system includes basic American high school curriculum and Chinese characteristic curriculum, with a total of 12 full-time foreign teachers. In the past two years, 100% of the international classes of the field school have been promoted to the top 100 universities in the United States.

As one of the northernmost schools in the old Zhabei district, Tin Ka Ping Middle School is located in a relatively remote area, but this also means that there are relatively loose land restrictions. Different from the dilemma of many urban private schools "making a dojo in a snail shell", Tin Ka Ping Middle School has a moderate campus scale and excellent infrastructure. In recent years, the school has undergone a large-scale renovation, and the environment is clean and tidy, with a library, lecture hall, reading room, activity room, physicochemical and biological laboratories and other venues, all classrooms equipped with air conditioning and multimedia assistance systems, as well as live broadcast rooms and recording studio-level live classrooms. The main playground has a 300-meter circular track and an artificial turf football field, and sports facilities such as football fields, basketball courts, gymnasiums and table tennis centers have also been overhauled in recent years. In addition, the school's psychological counseling room is not a decoration, the psychological counselor has a high level of professionalism, and is truly implemented in the education and teaching work, will provide various types of psychological counseling for specific students, carry out pre-examination psychological training for candidates for further studies, and help students adjust the target motivation level.

Tin Ka Ping High School is not a full boarding school, and students can live on day or on campus. After the campus was renovated in 2013, the living environment has been greatly improved, and the dormitories for boys and girls are all 4-person dormitories, with beds and desks, with separate toilets and air-conditioning water heaters. The school's accommodation management is relatively rigorous, and the students will be equipped with toiletries and bedding uniformly, so that students can achieve a real sense of "check-in"; Extra electricity is basically not allowed, there are full-time teachers on duty and checking at night, housekeeping scoring is carried out every day, and students living on campus need to participate in evening self-study. The school canteen provides lunch to all students on weekdays, with three dishes and one soup per day. Breakfast and dinner are served to dormitory students, with home-style tastes and a wide variety of products. Due to the remote location of the school and the good management of accommodation and accommodation, boarding school is more ideal than day school if the financial conditions allow.
