Some primary and middle schools in Chengdu, capital of quake-hit Sichuan Province in southwest China, resumed classes on Wednesday.
An official with the Chengdu government said schools were allowed to resume classes after making sure that their buildings were safe.
The Chengdu Guanghua Primary School underwent a check by architecture quality inspectors on Tuesday before resuming classes, a school executive said, refusing to give his name.
Xiong Daxian, president of Sichuan Normal University Experimental Foreign Language School that also resumed classes, said the school buildings were strong and the management had taught students how to respond to earthquakes.
Xiong said all the school's students were evacuated to the playground within two and a half minutes after the massive earthquake struck at 2:28 p.m. Monday.
