The Department of Education and Training determined that Mr. Vo Huu Tran, the principal, also committed violations.

Accordingly, Mr. Tran, as the head of the unit, did not strictly direct and manage the discipline and ethics of students. Specifically, in the last two school years, Trung Hieu Secondary School had many incidents of students fighting, causing injuries, and students insulting teachers.

The vice principal and teachers of Trung Hieu Secondary School repeatedly proposed to handle the student's violations, but Mr. Tran had no solution and did not handle the situation thoroughly.

When the incident of a group of students beating a friend and filming a clip recently occurred, Mr. Tran did not promptly handle the situation and report it to leaders at all levels; did not promptly notify the family of the beaten student to take support measures.
