In April, 2020, Changsha Education Bureau reported the change of the ownership of school registration management in primary and secondary schools in the high-speed rail exhibition area. According to the document, there are 13 primary and secondary schools with 9754 students around Changsha High-speed Railway Exhibition New Town. In order to strengthen the construction of the exhibition area, it is planned to build 26 primary and secondary schools (including 15 primary school, 6 junior high schools and 5 senior high schools), and it is planned to introduce high-quality educational resources to cooperate in running schools to solve the problem of insufficient educational facilities in the region. It is proposed that the compulsory education stage in the new city area of high-speed rail convention and exhibition should be based on the principle of relative proximity, and the school boxes should be listed separately, and Changsha County will continue to manage them. Junior high school graduates participate in the unified urban senior high school entrance examination and are included in the unified enrollment of urban senior high schools.
