Next school year, Hanoi will organize ready-made meals for boarding students

At the question-and-answer session of the Hanoi People's Council, Vice Chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee Vu Thu Ha said that the city will pilot a boarding meal model focusing on meals at schools and hospitals from the 2025-2026 school year. This model aims to control the entire process from input to distribution, ensuring nutrition, food hygiene and safety and minimizing intermediaries.
Hanoi will also deploy food shopping areas and food street routes that meet food safety standards, strictly control raw materials and processing processes. Ms. Vu Thu Ha called on people to become smart consumers, refusing foods of unknown origin, fake goods, and poor quality goods.
In the afternoon of the same day, the Hanoi People's Council passed a Resolution to support boarding meals for primary school students in the 2025-2026 school year with a total budget of more than VND 3,060 billion. Students in mountainous areas and communes in the middle of the Red River are supported with VND 30,000/student/day, the remaining areas are VND 20,000/student/day. In case the meal fee is higher, the difference will be paid by parents. See more...
Is the time spent as a high school teacher counted for promotion of junior high school teachers?
Ms. Trieu Thi Thu Ha has been a Grade III high school teacher since 2016, then transferred to teaching at the junior high school level from August 2023 and was appointed to the professional title of Grade III junior high school teacher. In November 2024, she qualified to participate in the promotion consideration to Grade II Secondary School Teacher.

According to the provisions of Circular 08/2023 and Circular 13/2024 of the Ministry of Education and Training, the duration of holding the old teacher professional title is determined to be equivalent to the duration of holding the transferred professional title. The time Ms. Ha has held the grade III rank at high school level is considered equivalent when considering promotion at secondary school level.
Thus, the Ministry of Education and Training affirms that Ms. Ha's time holding the title of Grade III High School Teacher will still be counted when considering promotion to Grade II Secondary School Teacher in accordance with current regulations. See more...
