(HBO) - After much effort, Bui Thi Hong Tuyet, a Grade 12 student at the Provincial Ethnic Boarding High School, and three other students won two third prizes and one consolation prize at the National Excellent Student selection Contest in the 2021-2022 academic year. This is the most outstanding achievement among ethnic minority high schools around the country.

Vice Principal Nguyen Manh Hung and students from the Provincial Ethnic Boarding High School take part in the National Excellent Student selection Contest for the 2021-2022 academic year.

This is the 8th consecutive year that the Provincial Ethnic Boarding High School has had winning students at the national contest.

The outstanding achievement continues to strengthen the school’s leading position in the province’s high school system as well as in the network of ethnic high schools around the country.

The school is also leading national ethnic boarding high schools in the percentage of students passing university entrance exams. In the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 academic years, all students who registered for university entrance exams were admitted.

"Nearly all students are from ethnic minority groups, many of whom are in difficult circumstances,” said School Principal Quach Thang Canh. "The school focuses on good administration associated with education and training, thus achieving excellent results in training quality. In the 2020-2021 academic year, the percentage of students with distinctions and good rankings accounted for 99.7 percent.”

What the school’s teachers and students have achieved has become an important foundation for the province to continue to pay more attention to and invest more in policies and resources for local ethnic minority schools, towards making them "incubators” and developing high-quality human resources as key ethnic minority officials in the province.

The Provincial Party Committee has issued Directive No 09-CT/TU on improving the quality of education in ethnic boarding high schools to create high-quality ethnic minority human resources in the 2021-2025 period.

This will serve as a basis for and an important policy in promoting comprehensive investment and improving the quality of management, teaching staff, and facilities at ethnic minority high schools in the province, thereby aiming to increase the percentage of ethnic minority students by 10 percent to 2030 and effectively implementing specific policies in the field of education and training for ethnic minorities in the province./.
