The Wuhan Economic and Technological Development Zone -- or the WHDZ, located in Wuhan city in China’s Central Hubei province -- has three colleges and universities, seven vocational schools and 41 public elementary and middle schools, as well as kindergartens.
Its vocational schools can train 30,000 industrial and technical workers per year.
The Wuhan French International School, the San New School, Wuhan Yangtze International School, Wuhan Foreign Languages School (elementary and junior middle schools) and international classes at the First Senior High School in the WHDZ offer a complete chain of international education services.
In 2016, the WHDZ Experimental Primary School took the lead in passing the evaluation for the establishment of modernization in compulsory education schools, becoming a model for many in the city and even in the country.
In the following two years, another 19 schools successfully passed the evaluation and the quality of education in the zone was rapidly upgraded.
In 2018, a meeting on the development of the modern school for compulsory education in Wuhan was held in the WHDZ.
Through keen innovation and reform, 60 percent of the schools in the zone passed the modernization acceptance within two years -- and the efficiency of their upgrading and the general upgrading of educational levels in the development zone is ahead of the city.
