The Ministry of Education and Training (MOET) has issued a document responding to the opinions of voters in some provinces sent before the 9th Session of the National Assembly.
Accordingly, voters in Ninh Binh province said that parents and people agree with the strict management of extra classes outside of school according to Circular 29/2024/TT-BGDDT of the Ministry of Education and Training regulating extra classes.
However, parents and people hope that all levels should consider allowing schools to organize extra classes at schools under the strict management of the education sector and pay State taxes according to regulations, creating favorable conditions for students to travel and study.
The management of extra learning and tutoring at schools will be better and more convenient, the school's facilities will also be more guaranteed for students' learning; the cost of extra teaching and learning at schools will be lower than current centers.
