national standards since 2016.
The district is home to 60 kindergartens,
primary schools, and junior and senior high schools, with 202 school sites. The

rate now surpasses 80 percent, and is expected to exceed 90 percent at the end
of 2021.
The district has made proper investment in
improving the education quality. It has been among the top four localities in
Hoa Binh with the largest number of students winning prizes at provincial
contests for excellent students for several years. More than 98 percent of
students graduate from secondary and high schools annually. The local community-based
learning centre and the continuing education centre have contributed to enhancing
knowledge for local workers. Forty-one out of the 89 schools in the locality
have met national standards.

and training department, said building on these achievements, the education
sector will continue advising local authorities in how to push ahead with
fundamental and comprehensive education reforms, with a focus on building more
schools with national standards, and promoting personnel training to raise the
