Zhangzhou No. 3 Middle School (Zhangzhou No. 3 Middle School) was founded in 1920. It was formerly Jinde Girls' Middle School and Chongzheng Middle School. In 1952, the two schools merged into Zhangzhou No. 3 Middle School. In 1981, Zhangzhou No. 3 Middle School was identified as one of the 87 key middle schools in the province by the Fujian Provincial Department of Education. In 1988, it was honorably included in the "National Famous Middle School" list. In 1993, it passed the provincial second-level standard acceptance inspection and was honored to be promoted to a provincial first-level standard school in 2006. It has a history of 100 years.
Zhangzhou No. 3 Middle School was predecessored by Jinde Women's Middle School and Chongzheng Middle School, but its history can be traced back to Jinde Women's School and Chongzheng School in the late Qing Dynasty. The establishment of Jinde Women's Middle School and Chongzheng Middle School is an inevitable product of the development of modern Chinese history. Its development has witnessed the ups and downs of modern history in Zhangzhou and the history of the development of Zhangzhou's education.
Foreign missionaries came to China to preach and introduce Western knowledge. It was found since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but it was strictly restricted. In 1840, the Opium War , China entered a huge change that had not been seen in a thousand years and began to become a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. The single feudal education model was also invisibly broken. With the failure of the two Opium Wars, the Qing government signed a series of unequal treaties, and Western missionaries came to China one after another. Under the protection of a series of unequal treaties and the military powers of Western powers, they preached on the ancient land of China. In order to better achieve the missionary purpose, missionaries have set up church schools, using teaching as a way and means of missionary preaching. During the Westernization Movement, the Westernization School began to emulate the Westernization Model to establish modern schools in order to cultivate Westernization talents.
Fujian is located on the southeast coast. The signing of the " Nanjing Treaty " forced Fujian to open the two trading ports of Xiamen and Fuzhou. Fujian was also influenced by Western customs earlier. In 1842, foreign missionaries came to Fujian with foreign invaders' warships and began to rely on teaching and preaching at the trading port. During the Westernization Movement, the Westernization faction established the Naval Academy in Fujian. In this situation, education in Fujian broke the single feudal teaching model, and multiple school-running models began to emerge. From the late 19th century to the early 20th century, many church schools have been established in the Christian Church in Fuzhou, Xiamen and Zhangzhou. Jinde Nu Zhai and Chongzheng Academy were founded at this time. In 1905, the London Trade Union of the United Kingdom founded Jindezhai (female school) at the Chapel of Jieguanting (Xinhua East Road). The following year, Chongzheng Church also founded Chongzheng School.
After the victory of the Xinhai Revolution, in 1912, the Nanjing Provisional Government promulgated a series of measures conducive to the development of education. However, the situation is changing.
