Zhengzhou Airport Economy Zone Advances District-Wide AI Education Rollout, Targets 2028 '1+5' System

On September 20, the Zhengzhou Airport Economy Zone held a work meeting on "AI + Education" at Henan Provincial Experimental Primary School (Airport Zone campus), attended by Shi Xiaochun, a first-level researcher at the Henan Provincial Education Department's science and information technology division, and Yang Hongxing, a third-level researcher at its basic education division. The meeting said the zone coordinates more than 120 public primary and secondary schools, has built 25 key schools and 11 demonstration schools, and has deployed 32 categories of smart education products benefiting over 100,000 teachers and students. It set a goal of building a "1+5" AI education system by 2028 and implementing daily reporting, weekly scheduling and monthly review mechanisms.

This is a publicly confirmed milestone by a district education authority, covering more than 120 public schools, 25 key schools, 11 demonstration schools and 32 categories of smart education products, which directly affects school procurement and deployment schedules, teacher training arrangements and how education products are adopted in the region. The meeting also introduced daily reporting, weekly scheduling and monthly review and called for rejecting digital formalism, indicating the focus is shifting from equipment construction to classroom application and data governance. However, the original text does not disclose usage frequency, teacher training scale or application outcome data, so actual implementation still needs observation. Smart lesson preparation, learning analysis and precision teaching tools in the zone's schools will enter normalized operation and assessment. Product suppliers serving these schools must support equipment integration, platform connection and data governance, raising delivery and operations requirements.
