Jining in East China's Shandong province has built a new primary school in its Taibai Lake New Area, which is expected to open for the new semester starting from this September.

The Affiliated Primary School to Jining No 1 High School is sponsored by the Jining bureau of education, Jining No 1 High School, as well as the administrative committee and the education bureau of Taibai Lake New Area.

The campus includes four classroom buildings, an office building, a gymnasium, canteens, and other facilities, said Xu Dengli, vice-principal of Jining No 1 High School. The primary school has various classrooms like art rooms, pottery rooms, multimedia classrooms, and laboratories, added Xu.

Equipment, including desks, chairs, computers, office furniture, and air conditioners, have already been installed, according to the vice-principal.

The primary school has also employed enough teachers for the school year, some of whom are professional teachers under 40 years old that were selected from other schools in the city, added Xu.

Taibai Lake New Area has been seeing a surging number of residents due to its rapid economic and social development, which has boosted the demand for elementary school education. The new primary school is expected to satisfy these needs and promote the balanced development of the area's education.
