According to the assessment of the Department of Education and Training of Hai Phong City, Circular 29 helps education management units have a clearer legal basis to manage extra teaching and learning activities as well as limit the situation of widespread and unregulated extra teaching and learning.
At the same time, it contributes to ensuring fairness in education, reducing the gap in learning opportunities between students. Limit the situation of teachers teaching extra classes to students who are teaching in class, causing unfairness in assessment and teaching. Reduces pressure on students and parents to attend extra classes.
Since Circular 29 took effect, the Hai Phong Department of Education and Training has organized 3 inspection teams on extra teaching and learning at schools in the area. The results show that schools basically comply with the regulations on extra teaching and learning. The Department of Education and Training has also publicly announced the place to receive citizens at the agency's headquarters and the phone number used to receive and handle feedback on extra teaching and learning in the city.
