Mr. Tao Xingzhi, a people's educator, said: "The principal is the soul of a school." A good principal can make a good school. To build a first-class school, we must first have a first-class principal. Chen Ping, president of Lidu Middle School, made us feel this way. When Chen Ping walked into the principal's office, he was having a meeting with the head teacher. In his bookish office, we had a brief talk with the dean. "He is probably the hardest principal in Jialing District." This is the first sentence the dean said to us. From the conversation, we learned that President Chen not only comprehensively manages the daily affairs of this school, but also personally gives physics lessons to two review classes in senior three. Physics classes in two classes are already a heavy teaching task for ordinary teachers, but he never insists on anything and does his work in an orderly way. At this time, the meeting was over. When President Chen came into the office, his appearance was straightforward and open-minded, and he had a strong affinity. This was his first impression on me. In the conversation, Chen Ping believes that the principal's leadership over the school is first and foremost the leadership of the teaching concept. The idea of running a school is the soul of the school and the core of all its work. From his speech, we can clearly feel his advanced educational ideas and advanced educational thoughts.

In 2003, Chen Ping passed the public examination and became the principal of Lidu Middle School. For more than three years, Chen Ping knows every detail of Lidu Middle School like the back of his hand. After extensive investigation and careful consideration, according to the reality of Lidu Middle School, Chen Ping put forward the scientific school-running concept of "establishing schools by quality, developing schools through research, managing schools according to law and actively developing schools". This has enabled Lidu Middle School to quickly find the "breakthrough point" for its development, making the school move towards the goal of "establishing an efficient management mechanism, cultivating high-level teachers, creating a high-grade campus culture and cultivating a high-quality young generation".

In recent years, Lidu Middle School has continued to grow and develop. It is impossible not to change the management thought and modern management mode. In view of the actual situation of the school, Chen Ping put forward the twelve-character policy of "clearing the periphery, managing the mechanism and emphasizing the goal", that is, removing all factors that are not conducive to the development of Lidu Middle School, sorting out the management mechanism of Lidu Middle School, and aiming at improving the quality of education and teaching, so as to build a satisfactory Lidu Middle School in all directions. This twelve-character policy is simple to say, but it is so heavy to do. Chen Ping still clearly remembers when he first took office. At that time, the campus environment of the school was poor. The safety of the school, the safety of students and potential hidden dangers always concern him and every faculty member in Li Zhong. After taking office, he strengthened school safety work, encouraged all teachers to carry forward the spirit of ownership, take the school as their home, closely unite and implement the daily management and safety precautions of the school. He gets up before 6 o'clock every morning and goes to bed after 12 o'clock at night. Many teachers forget to eat and sleep at work. A teacher joked that we "get up earlier than the chicken and go to bed later than the dog". In order to improve students' safety awareness, the school has strengthened safety education, and the teachers on duty patrol and check every day, in exchange for a safe and harmonious campus environment. A recent incident may give us a glimpse of the daily safety management of Lidu Middle School. On the evening of April 19, 2007, about 10, more than 3,500 students from 46 classes in the whole school will attend evening self-study. Suddenly, there was a strong wind, thunder and lightning, power failure, and the school fell into darkness in an instant. There are storms everywhere and darkness everywhere. Many students have begun to prepare to go back to the dormitory. What if a student has an accident in the dark? The tutor immediately reported the news of the power outage to the director of the Political and Educational Affairs Office. Within 5 minutes, all school leaders and class teachers arrived at their respective class positions with flashlights. The students in the whole school are very calm. Under the arrangement and command of the leaders and teachers, everyone went back to the dormitory to sleep in turn. The whole process is quick and neat, and it is handled calmly without any accidents. This is inseparable from the strengthening of safety publicity and education and the formulation of emergency mechanism in schools. The slogan "Safety prevention focuses on management, safety accidents focus on prevention, and safety responsibility is more important than Mount Tai" is conspicuously engraved on the new teaching building of the school. It seems that Li wrote this and did the same. "Make every effort to build a satisfied Li Zhong and strive for a first-class demonstration high school." This is the goal of Chen Ping and his team, and it is also the goal that unites them closely and creates an invincible team. It is this cohesion that enables the school to develop "by spurt", and it is this excellent team that enables the school to achieve a series of excellent achievements and honors.
