What is the original intention of education? The answer for New Century people is to lay the foundation for a happy life for children, run every school well, make every teacher successful, and make every child happy. From opening a music store, to founding a school, to founding an education group, Han Weinan's identity has undergone magnificent changes from doctor to entrepreneur to doer, but the only thing that remains unchanged is that his eyes have never left the education industry. Education is an industry and a career. His educational sentiments have never been polished by time, but have been rooted in his blood unknowingly and grown into a towering tree. Gather high-quality resources to create a "model" for running a prestigious school group
As the earliest and largest private training institution in Xiaoshan, the development of New Century Music School has always attracted much attention. From its establishment in 1998 to the present, it has become a prestigious professional art school in the region and even inside and outside the province. As the scale of the school continues to expand, its development keeps pace with the times. As of 2018, Yixing has built four major campuses: Sports Center Campus, Jinhui Road Campus, Pinwen Street Campus, Development Zone Campus, and Aile International Kindergarten, becoming a veritable education group. They will use the group as a carrier to further amplify the advantages of high-quality education in prestigious schools, maximize the benefits of high-quality educational resources, and meet the people's needs for high-quality education.
"Either don't do it, or do it the best you can." Han Weinan, who has an educational vision, "carefully carves" every aspect of education. He does not feel tired or tired at all, but becomes more and more educated. The more passionate you are. In order to build the glorious "Kingdom of Art Education" in his mind, he also extended the tentacles of education from within the district to outside the district, effectively combining the expansion of "quantity" and the establishment of "form" in extension development. At present, he is leading the group to make a big move. First, it is to operate the group as a company and strive to build it into a high-quality listed company; second, it is preparing to build an international clavichord museum to collect various foreign pianos with the mark of the times. and build it into the province’s only and world-class international fortepiano museum.

Promote "activity-based" teaching and enhance the group's "hematopoietic function"
"What kind of person do you want to train your children to become?" This proposition may be too ambitious. But in Han Weinan's mind, using art to cultivate people and using art to build people should be the most appropriate answer among all.
Reviewing the development path of education in the new century, it is not difficult to find that there are a series of solid footprints that always clearly demonstrate Han Weinan’s responsibility and persistent pursuit. He leads a team of teachers to promote “activity-based” teaching. Various activities such as music salons, large-scale performances, talent competitions, art examinations, and international exchanges are all in a form that students love to see, and use positive energy to help every student grow up healthily; he manages the teacher team and shoulders the educational mission of educating people. , enhance the driving force for the group’s progress. "In recent years, we have increased our investment in manpower and hired 15 music and art experts from inside and outside the province to form an expert team. Their joining has stimulated the growth of the teaching team." Han Weinan felt deeply about the arrival of famous masters. important task.
15 stars cannot make the night sky brighter.
Only countless outstanding teachers who are unknown and speak with their actions can create a sea of ??stars for high-quality education. Therefore, Han Weinan promotes the recruitment and training of teachers on campus. During every recruitment, he will use various resources and connections to find professional artistic talents, including some returnees of music majors and art graduates from the nine major music academies in China. Top students, foreign music teachers, etc. At the same time, for new teachers, Han Weinan requires them to improve their professional abilities as soon as possible through high-intensity and fast-paced "practical" training. Finally, these new teachers will also undergo a series of teaching competitions to continuously promote professional growth.
For an educational unit like New Century Education Group, gathering all the forces that can be united and exploring all possible ways to expand is a powerful guarantee for enhancing the internal "hematopoietic function". This is what Han Weinan thought and did. At present, the entire New Century Education Group has 172 faculty members, including 7 with postgraduate degrees and 3 with resumes from overseas. These outstanding teachers have also laid a solid foundation for the group's subsequent development.
Excellent party style leads the teaching style, and the fruitful achievements continue to write brilliant stories
Han Weinan attaches great importance to the party building work of the school. In July 2005, New Century Music School established a party branch as a private training institution , which also created a first in the private training and education system. Since then, in accordance with the work idea of ??focusing on party building and promoting education, with the construction of grassroots party organizations in schools as the core, he has improved the party worker youth organization, combined with the construction of the teacher team, the improvement of education and teaching quality, the construction of the school's characteristic culture and the foundation of cultivating people through art. The mission is to continue to deeply promote the "Socialist Core Values" into schools.
After trying to drink "Tou Shui", Han Weinan proposed to continue to carry out rotation training for all party members, strengthen the construction of a team of party cadres, standardize the development of party members, and fully mobilize the enthusiasm and enthusiasm of the majority of party members, cadres and teachers. initiative and play a positive role in promoting the leap-forward development of education in the new century.

The school has been awarded the National Advanced Private School Unit, China Social Organization Assessment Level 5A, Hangzhou Spiritual Civilization Unit, Hangzhou Excellent Private Training School, and has been awarded the Xiaoshan District Private Training School Standardized Education Demonstration Unit for many consecutive years.
Education is a feeling, but also a responsibility! Behind the heavy honor is Han Weinan's most vivid interpretation of "responsibility". It is that New Century Education fully respects teachers, always regards improving the level of regional art education as its new mission, takes talent cultivation as the fundamental starting point, and optimizes resource allocation as a guarantee. The original intention is to play the "local card" and the "industry card" well and cultivate high-quality artistic talents for social development.
Regarding the future, Han Weinan does not dare to delay for a moment, as he has always said, "We must be down-to-earth while also looking high." He has many hobbies, including playing saxophone, guitar, tennis and Go. He said that life is like a game of Go, which requires layout, middle game and ending, as well as constant review. After 20 years of accumulation, the "new century" has now reached the moment of accumulation. As Han Weinan said: "It's time to play a big game"!
