A population rise among Chinese teenagers will creats challenges for crowded middle school, start the Ministry of Education.

It is said that universities are being encouraged to run senior middle schools in an effort to find spaces for the fast - expanding classes.

Beijing, like other areas of China, will also be effected by this. The city has promised to build as many as 70 senior middle schools by 2005, each with at least 500 student spaces. Senior middle schools now open can handle an average of 205 students, according to Beijing Education Committee.
