Article 4 of Circular 29/2024/TT-BGDDT stipulates cases where extra teaching and organization of extra teaching are not allowed as follows:
Do not organize extra classes for primary school students, except in the following cases: art training, physical education, and life skills training.
Teachers who are teaching at schools are not allowed to teach extra classes outside of school for money from students that the teacher is assigned to teach by the school according to the school's educational plan.
Teachers in public schools are not allowed to participate in the management and operation of extra-curricular teaching but can participate in extra-curricular teaching.
Mr. Nguyen Xuan Thanh, Director of the Department of Secondary Education, Ministry of Education and Training, emphasized that the Ministry of Education and Training does not prohibit extra teaching but seeks the cause to have appropriate and effective management plans.
"Studying to be better and develop yourself is a legitimate desire, so the Ministry of Education and Training does not prohibit it. However, organizations and individuals who teach extra classes must register their business and must publicly disclose their location, subjects, study time, costs, etc. and must strictly comply with legal regulations on working hours, working hours, safety, security, fire prevention, etc.
At that time, students and parents will choose any place that makes students and parents trust and meets their requirements," said Mr. Thanh.
