History

Originally a primary school, Guangdong Province Yucai School was founded in 1951. It was the first school set up by the new People's Republic of China administration and the Chinese Communist Party in Canton. Intake was composed of mainly children of CCP cadres from outside Guangdong. In 1954 it was relocated to Fujin Road. From 1961 onward, it transitioned into a middle school.
During the Cultural Revolution, it was renamed Guangzhou No. 62 Middle School in 1968. In 1978, the school was split into two parts—the primary school and the high school. The primary school was named Meihuacun Primary School. In 1995, the high school was renamed as Guangzhou Yucai Middle School. On 10 December 2002, Guangzhou No. 48 Middle School was merged into Yucai.
