The Affiliated High School of Sichuan University was founded in 1908. After several name changes, it was named as "Chengdu No. 12 Middle School" in 1953.[2] This name became widely known among Chengdu citizens. Till now, many local people refer the school as "No. 12 Middle School".
In 2003, The School returned to its initial name, "The Affiliated High School of Sichuan University", after incorporating its neighbor, Chengdu No. 29 Middle School, which only offered 7-9 grades education at that time. In 2009, Chengdu No. 50 Middle School was merged into the Affiliated High School, bringing a new campus to it.[3]
Currently, the school has two campuses, Wangjiang Campus and Kehua Campus. Wangjiang Campus combines the former neighboring campuses of No. 12 Middle School and No. 29 Middle School, seating at northeast side of Sichuan University, near Wangjiang Park.
