Great leader Deng Xiaoping emphasized in his "Southern Tour Speech" of 1992 that "reform and opening up require greater courage and the willingness to experiment." Guided by the spirit of his speech, the spring breeze of reform has brought boundless vitality and energy to the land of China. The year 1993 marked the beginning of the development of private education in China. I invested in founding the Huamei Experimental School of English and successively invited Ms. Xiong Jia, Mr. Liu Sha, Mr. Chen Jinlong, and Mr. Ye Liqiang to join the founding team. The school has stood the test of time and is honored to be one of the earliest private schools established after China's reform and opening up.
At its inception, the school established the educational purpose of "integrating Eastern and Western educational civilizations and cultivating global future elites." With the school spirit of "adapting to a changing future and creating a better world," it is positioned to build a high-quality, high-end, distinctive, and international boutique school with Chinese roots.
Through trials and tribulations, the history and glory of Huamei School continue to be forged and passed down. Looking back at the development of the school, there have been thorny paths of entrepreneurship, steadfast beliefs in the pursuit of excellence, and selfless dedication to hard work. Countless teachers and students have worked diligently and started businesses under difficult conditions, condensing the Huamei spirit. It is these precious histories that have nurtured the unique educational philosophy and characteristics of the Huamei Experimental School of English, providing students with a comprehensive, diverse, and creative learning environment. It has cultivated a group of outstanding talents, made a significant contribution to the development of society, and written a bold stroke in the history of private education in China.
Huamei is a beautiful dream that takes root and grows vigorously; the people of Huamei are using the power of youth to open up the world and create a better future.
Huamei never forgets its original intention and remains committed to running the best private school in China. In the years to come, the people of Huamei will always carry a love for knowledge and the future, forge ahead bravely, pursue excellence, and contribute to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!
In 1993, Dr. Zhang Keqiang financed and invited Ms. Xiong Jia, Mr. Liu Sha, and Mr. Chen Jinlong to establish Huamei English Elementary School, with its campus located in the Military Sports Institute. The first batch of students consisted of a total of 89 students from two grades.
In 1995, the school moved into a newly built campus and rapidly developed into a full-time boarding school that integrates kindergarten, primary school, junior high school, high school, and international high school. The number of students in the school increased year by year to 2000, and the school successfully underwent the "Education Reserve Fund" restructuring. In 1997, the school opened the Canadian Preparatory Program.
As Huamei School entered the 21st century, its development has been steady and its achievements in educating students have begun to emerge. The school's teaching quality and unique characteristics have been widely praised, making it the first private school in Guangdong Province to be promoted to the first-level school.
Since 2016, Huamei School has formally launched its second entrepreneurial venture, with the second principal, Dr. Chen Feng, leading all Huamei staff to pursue a new dream. In 2017, Huamei School was honored as an "Advanced Collective for Education Work in Guangzhou." In 2019, the school was recognized as a "Exemplary High School in Guangzhou." In 2020, Huamei School became an IB world member school and was awarded the "Outstanding Contribution Institution Award" for the 40th anniversary of private education in Guangdong Province and Guangzhou City.
In 1997, the school's founder, Dr. Zhang Keqiang, made multiple efforts and officially designated No.23 Huamei Road, Tianhe District, Guangzhou as the campus of Huamei School，naming it "Huamei Campus".
