History

The Affiliated High School of Sichuan University was founded in 1908. After several name changes, it was renamed as "Chengdu No. 12 Middle School" in 1953. This name was deeply rooted in Chengdu. Till now, many local residents still refer the school as "No. 12 Middle School". In 2003, The School resumed 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.

Campus

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. This campus serves for grades 10-12. It is designed to hold 60 classes in total with 3,000 students. Kehua Campus is on the site of former No. 50 Middle School. It mainly serves for grades 7-9, with a few grades 10-12 classes. It is located at southwest side of Sichuan University.
