If Mai Chau district sees improvement in education in Hang Kia, Lac Son district records progress in Ngoc Son mountainous commune. Ky Son district has paid attention to building a school up to national standards in specially difficult Doc Lap commune while Yen Thuy district has invested in new schools worth hundreds of billions VND in the poor communes of Lac Sy and Lac Luong. In light of such, education panorama in remote, mountainous and especially disadvantaged communes in the province has improved.

In particular, in order to increase education scale, network and quality in poor areas, the provincial education and training sector has stepped up the planning and development of a network of special schools under the province’s plan on education development in poor areas for the 2015 – 2020 period. Concluding the 2017 – 2018 school year, the province recorded 13 ethnic boarding high schools with over 3,500 students, nine of them (nearly 70 percent) met national standards and 13 ethnic day-boarding high schools with about 2,400 students. As scheduled in November 2018, the provincial education and training sector will continue proposing the switch of two schools in especially disadvantaged communes in Kim Boi and Lac Son districts to day-boarding high schools to offer better learning environment to students. 

Therefore, education quality in remote, mountainous and especially difficult areas have improved considerably. For example, excellent students in ethnic boarding schools during 2017-2018 academic year accounted for 13.6 percent, up 0.3 percent from the previous school year while students with good conduct made up 89.3 percent, up 1.8 percent. During 2018 – 2019, the sector will improve education quality, upgrade school infrastructure and equipment, maintain the number of students, offer all possible support to students in especially disadvantaged areas to study in ethnic boarding high schools after graduating from boarding secondary schools./.
