Tuyen Quang is ready for the new school year

Improve facilities

The 2024-2025 school year ended with many highlights, the quality of education in Tuyen Quang continued to improve, especially through excellent student exams and high school graduation exams.

Entering the 2025-2026 school year, the education sector faces many difficulties: the merger of Tuyen Quang - Ha Giang , operating a 2-level government model, and a lack of classrooms, facilities and teaching equipment, especially in remote areas. However, from the beginning of summer, the entire sector has urgently taken action, preparing the best conditions for students to return to school.

In localities, the atmosphere of preparation for the new school year is very exciting. Many communes have mobilized budget and social resources to repair and upgrade classrooms, add desks, chairs, boards, teaching equipment, especially items serving the 2-session/day teaching program.

Highland communes urgently reinforced roofs, floors, and walls of classrooms, improved lighting, fan systems, and clean water, ensuring minimum conditions for students. School sanitation, disease prevention, and safety were also emphasized.

In Minh Tan Commune, Minh Tan B Primary School, where 99% of the students are Mong ethnic people, has completed preparations. The school has one main school and six satellite locations, the farthest of which is 18 km away. In the 2025-2026 school year, all students will be brought to the main school, eliminating combined classes. Facilities such as classrooms, kitchens, and dormitories will be cleaned and arranged to meet the conditions for students to stay.

In parallel, the Board of Directors and teachers have been mobilizing students to come to class for half a month, and at the same time, organizing Vietnamese language enhancement classes so that ethnic minority students can catch up with the curriculum early.

The atmosphere of preparation for the new school year is also bustling in Tung Vai commune. At Tung Vai Kindergarten, teachers are actively cleaning the school and decorating it with themes related to local culture to create excitement for children to learn. Meanwhile, Tung Vai Primary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities with more than 560 ethnic minority students is also urgently completing unfinished construction items, arranging classrooms and bedrooms, and adding equipment to be ready for the new school year.

According to statistics, Tuyen Quang province currently has 1,054 schools and 1,803 satellite schools, with nearly 500,000 students, of which nearly 80% are ethnic minority students. The education sector has identified ensuring facilities as an important step to maintain and improve the quality of teaching and learning. Schools have cleaned the campus, repaired classrooms, added desks and chairs, checked the electricity and water systems, and boarding kitchens, and are ready to welcome students back to class.

Attentive to the quality of teaching and learning

If facilities are the foundation, then the quality of teaching and the organization of the new school year are the key tasks. With the two-level government model, from this year, kindergartens, primary schools, and secondary schools will be under the direct management of the commune level. The new model is expected to increase initiative and closeness to the grassroots, but also poses many challenges in terms of personnel, funding, and teaching organization.

A major problem for the 2025-2026 school year is the reception of a large number of students who will move to the provincial center with their parents after the merger. According to the Department of Education and Training, so far, 508 students have registered to transfer to study in Tuyen Quang, including 113 preschools, 208 primary schools, 136 secondary schools, 50 high schools, and 1 continuing education school.

To ensure the rights of students, the Department of Education and Training of Tuyen Quang province has reviewed and allocated appropriately, and directed schools to receive applications as soon as they are requested, prioritizing the completion of procedures before the start of the school year. Schools also reviewed facilities, class sizes, supplemented desks and chairs, and missing teachers, promptly made recommendations to build new, upgrade or repair classrooms.

Preparing to enter the new school year, Tan Trao Kindergarten in Minh Xuan Ward, with more than 430 current students, plans to receive 50 more students. The school has proactively planned to allocate students into groups of classes to ensure both the number of students and the teaching conditions.

At Tuyen Quang High School for the Gifted, which has over 1,000 students, 22 more students have registered to return from Ha Giang for the new school year. Principal Nguyen Thi Hang said: “The school has prepared the best conditions to welcome the students, creating a stable mentality and a favorable learning environment, suitable for the parents’ workplace.”

Similarly, many primary and secondary schools in the city center have also proactively supported parents with admission procedures, class division, purchase of textbooks and uniforms, and regularly contacted students to encourage them to go to school with peace of mind.

Not only worrying about study places, the education sector also pays special attention to the psychology of students after the merger. Many parents are worried that their children will have to get used to a new environment, with larger classes and longer distances. To address this, schools have developed support plans and organized exchange and connection activities to help students integrate quickly. The education sector is committed to coordinating with the government in transporting and picking up students, keeping them safe, and ensuring consistent teaching quality across regions.
