In addition to high school education, teacher workshops, civil engineering courses, business courses, ceramics courses, etc. It was also established to meet the needs of all parts of Chaoshan, which had a great impact on the social economy of Chaoshan. It became the school with the longest history, the largest scale, the best equipment, the largest school output, the richest collection of books and the strongest teachers in Chaoshan at that time, and was praised by the people as "the highest institution in Lingdong".
During the historical period from the beginning of this century to the founding of New China, Jinshan Middle School has made great contributions to Chaoshan in basic education, academic research and new culture communication with the efforts of successive principals, teachers and students. The spirit of rigorous scholarship and hard study of teachers and students has been passed down from generation to generation, and it has become a common practice, leaving behind works such as Chaozhou Ballads, Chaozhou Customs, Chaozhou Medicinal Plants Records and Chaozhou Records (some of them) for future generations, which has promoted the cultural development of Chaozhou. Under the impetus of the May 4th Movement, teachers and students in Jinzhong took national security as their responsibility, gave speeches on the streets, staged patriotic dramas and supported the Northern Expedition. 1925 Comrade spoke at the school, and President Du presided over the school affairs, which further promoted the development of new ideas in Jinzhong. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, the school building in Jinzhong was destroyed, and the school was once moved to the Seventh Hospital of the Great Cellar at the junction of Chaozhou and Jieyang, and then moved to the Phoenix Mountain area. In these hard years, teachers and students in Jinzhong, under the leadership of President Zhan Zhaoqing, worked hard and steadfastly, and vigorously supported the anti-Japanese war activities in eastern Guangdong in the form of literature, drama and singing. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, 1946 Jinzhong moved back to Chaozhou, used Kaiyuan Temple as a high school building, and embarked on the road of entrepreneurship again. At this time, the thought of new democracy and the thought of * * * production are rising among teachers and students. Groups of students went up the mountain to join the guerrillas led by the * * * production party, participated in the war of liberation, and welcomed the birth of new China.
1949+00 Chaoshan was liberated. On February 25th, 65438, the people's government took over Jinzhong, named it "Guangdong Jinshan Middle School" and confirmed it as a provincial key middle school. 1952, the people's government decided that Jinzhong moved to Shantou and merged with Shantou private Xianguang Middle School (its predecessor was Shixiang Middle School and Zheng Guang Girls' Middle School, which was founded in 1906 and merged into Xianguang Middle School in 1927), and it was still named Guangdong Jinshan Middle School. During this period, with the strong support of the provinces, prefectures, municipal governments and education administrative departments, Jinzhong expanded its school buildings, purchased books and equipment, strengthened its teaching staff, and conscientiously implemented the education policy of the party and the state. In the new development period, teachers and students in Jinzhong still maintain and carry forward the glorious tradition of loving the motherland, pursuing progress, working hard, being diligent and simple. At the same time, they care about the country and politics, take the road of combining workers and peasants and actively participate in socialist construction. Therefore, the school has developed rapidly in all aspects. Based on the reputation of the old Jinzhong, it has created a new style, further ensuring Jinzhong's top position in Chaoshan education and won praise from all walks of life. Comrade Tao Zhu, the first secretary of the provincial party Committee in the 1960s, spoke highly of Jinzhong: "Jinzhong is golden!" .
During the Cultural Revolution, Jinzhong was renamed as "Hongyan Middle School" and "No.13 Middle School in Shantou". 1978, the original school name was restored and it was restored as a provincial key middle school.
After the Third Plenary Session of the 11th CPC Central Committee, Jinshan Middle School reached a new peak of development. With the correct leadership and strong support of the provincial government, the provincial education department, the municipal party committee, the municipal government and the municipal education bureau, Jinzhong has built a series of teaching and living facilities such as school gates, teaching buildings, experimental buildings, teachers' dormitories and students' dormitories. During the period of 1985, Governor Ye Xuanping inspected Jinzhong, highly praised the good learning spirit and excellent teaching order of middle school students in Jinzhong, and allocated funds to build water supply facilities in Jinzhong. In addition, modern equipment such as language lab, audio-visual classroom, computer room, special classrooms for various subjects and multimedia classrooms have been built one after another, and the level of modernization has been gradually improved. From 65438 to 0998, the school expanded the original 300-meter track sports ground into a 400-meter-8 track standard sports ground, and opened a number of basketball courts, volleyball courts and tennis courts, further enriching sports facilities. The office space and equipment of teaching staff are becoming more and more perfect, the campus culture construction is becoming more and more substantial, and the school beautification construction has made great progress, which provides superior conditions for the teaching and learning of teachers and students in Jinzhong, and lays a hardware foundation for Jinzhong's new goal of modernization. In this regard, the vast number of alumni have made great contributions to their alma mater. Many alumni at home and abroad generously supported the construction of their alma mater, and also set up scholarship funds such as "President Zhan Zhaoqing Memorial Education Foundation", "Shantou Urban Alumni Love School Foundation" and "Young Teacher Progress Award Foundation", which effectively accelerated the modernization process of Jinzhong. The love of alumni for their alma mater was really touching and unspeakable. In the new era, Jinzhong School has made achievements worthy of its glorious school history.
