Shortly after the disaster, surviving students found a new home located in the courtyard of Changhong training center in Sichuan's Mianyang City.

The institution increased the enrollment quota and the students from the area could also join the school.

The students were provided with textbooks and teaching materials by the Sichuan provincial government and Mianyang Education Bureau sent local teachers to strengthen the staff team supported by may teachers from overseas who also came to volunteer.

The reconstruction work will soon start on May 12, the first anniversary of the earthquake, the new school will be built in Beichuan's new county seat.
