Shanghai Qunxing Vocational-Technical School is a key public comprehensive secondary vocational school in Shanghai. It has been designated by the Ministry of Education as a “National Demonstration Base for Animation and Game Majors in Secondary Vocational Schools.” It also serves as the chair institution of the Digital Art Teaching Research Committee (Secondary Vocational Schools) under the Teaching Work Committee of the China Vocational Education Society, and leads the National Animation and Game Education Alliance for Secondary Vocational Schools. Additionally, it is a “Pilot School for E-sports Programs in Shanghai’s Secondary Vocational Education.”

The school emphasizes school-enterprise cooperation and welcomes enterprises onto campus. Three programs have been approved as Shanghai municipal-level pilots for the modern apprenticeship system. The school also jointly runs integrated secondary-to-undergraduate and secondary-to-higher vocational education pilot programs with several universities, all of which are progressing smoothly. Its international collaborations, such as with Dong-Eui University in South Korea, have produced strong results.

Over its more than 40 years of development, the school has continually raised the level of its programs and deepened its educational quality. It has established a distinctive “One Core, Two Wings” model, with the animation and game program group as the core, and tourism service and computer-related majors as the two wings. The animation and game program was among the first to be recognized as a model brand major in Shanghai. The school hosts both the Shanghai Animation and Game Program Open Training Center and the Shanghai E-sports Operation and Management Program Open Training Center.

The Art Design and Production major plays a vital role in supporting and advancing the animation and game program group. Faculty and students from the school have repeatedly won first-place awards in national vocational education skills competitions.
