Binhai New Area in Tianjin has long been a magnet for talented people and the authorities are making it more attractive by ensuring professionals' children have access to schooling opportunities.
Official statistics showed that in 2013 about 400 million yuan was spent to improve local school infrastructure and employ teachers and management teams.
There are 181 primary and middle schools planned for Binhai and 169 of them are now in use, said a local official.
He said seven of the schools were key in Tianjin, and that Nankai High School, whose graduates include premiers Zhou Enlai and Wen Jiabao, and Tianjin No 1 Middle School had established campuses in Binhai.
The efforts benefit many children of migrant professionals.Â
