On October 15, the Government Office announced that Deputy Prime Minister Le Thanh Long signed Decision No. 2270/QD-TTg approving the Program "Improving the quality of preschool education in urban areas and industrial parks for the period 2025-2035, with a vision to 2045".
The program sets out specific goals by 2035 as follows:
For children
In urban areas: 100% of children in preschools are raised, cared for, and educated to ensure safety, meeting the requirements of the preschool education program in accordance with practical conditions.
In the area with industrial parks: Strive for 100% of children aged 6 months to 36 months who are children of workers and laborers who need to go to school, classrooms and access quality preschool education services.
For managers, preschool teachers and staff
In urban areas: 100% of managers, preschool teachers and staff in preschools have access to documents on digital platforms.
In the area with industrial parks: Strive for 100% of managers, preschool teachers and staff in preschools to be trained to improve their professional and technical capacity every year.
For preschool education institutions
In urban areas: Strive for 50% of provincial-level units to build and deploy preschool education models suitable to local characteristics, gradually approaching advanced preschool education models.
In areas with industrial parks: Strive to increase at least 20% of the number of children in preschools and at least 10% of public kindergartens with groups of children under 24 months old; 100% of private and private independent preschools meet the standards of safe schools, preventing and combating accidents and injuries according to regulations.
To achieve the set goals, the program clearly states the research and proposal of amendments and supplements to mechanisms and policies to continue promoting the socialization of education, creating the most favorable conditions to attract investors to participate in investing in building kindergartens for children of workers and laborers in industrial parks.
Develop specific local policies for preschool education in industrial parks, where there are many workers: policies for managers, teachers, staff directly caring for, caring for, and educating children who are children of workers and laborers, policies for preschools that receive children from 6 months to 36 months old and policies for children who are children of workers and laborers in accordance with actual conditions.
Arrange land funds to build preschool education institutions according to approved planning, especially in new urban area projects; prioritize the use of surplus state agency headquarters after the arrangement of the local administrative apparatus for preschool education; continue to promote the development of non-public preschool education institutions.
