Yu Cai Middle School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yu Cai Middle School (育才中学, pinyin: yucai zhongxue) is a famous secondary school in China. The school was established by educationalist Tao Xingzhi in Chongqing, the wartime capital. It was used to test Tao's theories on comprehensive education, and included six groups: natural science, social studies, literature, painting, music, and drama. Because of its success, many other Chinese schools use the name "Yu Cai".
