False propaganda of real estate in Wuhan "famous school district": Education Bureau issued a statement denied cooperation
Recently, many real estate projects in Wuhan have attracted social attention due to suspected false propaganda of "famous school districts". The Wuhan Municipal Education Bureau issued an emergency statement, clearly denied that there was cooperation with relevant properties and reminded home buyers to be cautious about the developer's publicity information. The following is a detailed sorting of events and structured data analysis.
1. Event background
According to incomplete statistics, at least five real estate projects in Wuhan have been complained about claiming to be "counter-to-face schools", involving popular areas such as Hongshan District and Donghu Hi-tech Zone. Developers use "school district housing" as a selling point to raise housing prices, but the actual allocation of educational resources is seriously inconsistent with publicity.
| Property Name | Claiming the corresponding school | Actual zoning schools | House price difference (yuan/㎡) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Optics Valley Future City | Optics Valley Branch of Huazhong Normal University No. 1 Affiliated High School | Optics Valley Fifth Junior High School | +8,000 |
| Hongshan Yue Mansion | Wuhan Primary School Hongshan Branch | Hongshan Experimental Primary School | +6,500 |
| Jianglan International | Yucai Primary School Branch | Jiang'an District Xincun Primary School | +7,200 |
2. Key points of the Education Bureau’s statement
The Wuhan Municipal Education Bureau issued a formal statement on May 20, with the main contents including:
1. No agreement on "famous school entry" was signed with any property;
2. The compulsory education school zoning shall be subject to the official documents of the year;
3. Investigation procedures have been initiated for the company involved.
3. Home buyer rights protection data
| Complaint channels | Complaints (item) | Main appeal | Processing progress |
|---|---|---|---|
| City message board | 127 | Check out/indemnification | It has been transferred to the Housing Management Bureau |
| 12345 Hotline | 89 | Investigation and punishment of false propaganda | Investigation under investigation |
| Market Supervision Administration | 43 | Administrative Penalty | Evidence collection stage |
4. Interpretation of legal experts
According to Article 8 of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law, the fictitious attributes of educational resources by developers constitute false propaganda, and home buyers may claim three times the compensation. It is worth noting that in 2023, Wuhan has investigated and dealt with 12 similar cases, with a maximum fine of 2 million yuan.
5. Home purchase advice
1. Log in to the official website of the Education Bureau to check the latest school district divisions;
2. Keep all publicity materials as evidence;
3. Clarify the school district terms in the purchase contract;
4. Be wary of the word game of "nearest admission ≠ corresponding admission".
This incident once again exposed the chaos in real estate sales. With the advancement of Wuhan's "lottery admission" policy, the concept of school district housing is gradually weakening, but cross-departmental supervision is still needed to prevent more consumer rights from being damaged.
