On April 18, the Department of Education and Training (DET) of Ho Chi Minh City issued information related to organizing an English proficiency survey for public teachers in the city.
The Department of Education and Training affirmed that this survey is not a competitive period, evaluating the individual or expertise of each teacher, but is a survey activity to build a comprehensive picture of the English proficiency of the general education teacher team.
The survey results will be important input data, helping the city have a scientific and practical view of foreign language proficiency in the education sector, thereby building a suitable development strategy.
The Department also commits to absolute confidentiality of personal information. Only individual teachers and the Working Group of the Steering Committee for project development have access to the survey results. This result cannot be used to consider salary, rewards, discipline or serve any personal purposes.
According to the department, participating in the survey is not only a responsibility but also an opportunity for each teacher to review their own English proficiency, thereby proactively building a learning plan, personal development, and being ready for new opportunities in teaching and integrating into global education.
Previously, the Department of Education and Training of Ho Chi Minh City issued a plan to organize a survey on the English proficiency of civil servants and public employees in the city's education sector.
The survey subjects are teachers who are teaching at public primary, secondary and high schools in the city. The survey period is from April 23-29, divided by shift for each district.
Participating teachers will conduct an objective multiple-choice survey, lasting 90 minutes, including listening, reading and writing skills to assess English proficiency according to the CEFR European standard reference framework (from A1 to C2).
The survey is designed and standardized by Cambridge Assessment English, ensuring objectivity, science and high reliability in assessing teachers' English proficiency.
