No longer worrying about tuition fees

From the 2025-2026 school year, students from public preschool to high school nationwide will officially be exempted from tuition fees. This policy creates more motivation for students in their studies

Satisfying people's wishes

In the Politburo meeting on February 28, 2025, to review and evaluate the initial results of the implementation of Resolution No. 18 of the Central Committee on continuing to improve the apparatus of the political system to be streamlined and operate effectively and efficiently, the Politburo decided to exempt tuition fees for students from public preschool to high school. The implementation time is from the 2025-2026 school year (September 2025 onwards).

This is a big step forward, demonstrating the humane policy and the deep concern of the Party and State for education and social security, and at the same time, concretizing the viewpoint of considering education as the top national policy.

In Long An, tuition fee exemption and reduction have been emphasized in recent times. Accordingly, implementing Resolution No. 03 dated May 21, 2024, of the Provincial People's Council stipulating the policy of tuition fee exemption and reduction for preschool children under 5 years old and secondary school students at public educational institutions in the province, in the 2024-2025 school year, tuition fees will be reduced by 50% for public preschool children under 5 years old and exempted for secondary school students studying the General Education Program at public general educational institutions in the province.

Tuition fees exemption help reduce the burden on students' families

Vice Principal of Sao Mai Kindergarten (Tan An City, Long An Province) - Le Thi Bich Thuy said: "Tuition fees exemption helps parents reduce the financial burden; children have more opportunities to go to school and help mobilize children to attend class. In particular, through this policy, parents have more confidence in the leadership of the Party and State, creating conditions for children to access education in a fair and equal manner."

Parents, students, teachers are excited

Currently, in the province, preschool children under 5 years old receive a 50% reduction in tuition fees, primary and secondary school students are exempted from tuition fees. The new policy has brought excitement to parents, students, and teachers.

This is also a long-standing expectation of the people because the fees are a burden for many families, especially those in difficult circumstances.

Mr. Nguyen Khac Nin - Head teacher of class 12A9, Duc Hue High School (Duc Hue district), said: I am very excited and completely agree with the policy of exempting tuition fees for students from kindergarten to the end of public high school. This brings many benefits to teachers, students and parents.

Teachers no longer have to remind students to complete tuition fees during class meetings or invite parents to discuss on not completing tuition fees on time.

For parents, exempting tuition fees helps reduce financial pressure on their children's education, increasing trust in the Party and State's care for the people.

Students have more opportunities to go to school, especially those in difficult circumstances, and have the opportunity to invest in other educational activities.

Secondary school students in Long An province are exempted from tuition fees from the 2024-2025 school year

According to Mr. Nguyen Hoang Hiep - Math teacher, My Lac High School (Thu Thua district), exempting tuition fees is very meaningful to many people. For students, this creates motivation to study, especially those in difficult circumstances. When students do not have to worry about tuition fees, they can focus on studying and developing themselves.

For students in difficult circumstances, this policy can be a decisive factor for them to study long-term, to go far in the future without having to endure financial pressure. It will help narrow the gap in learning opportunities between students in favorable and difficult areas, thereby improving the quality of national education. For parents, this is a great support, helping them save and invest in other family needs.

It can be seen that the tuition exemption policy creates a fairer learning environment. However, this also requires improving the quality of teaching, learning methods and support for students to ensure that they have the opportunity to develop.

Having a child studying at Sao Mai Kindergarten (Tan An City), Ms. Pham Thi Bao Tran is excited about the exemption of tuition fees for students from public preschool to high school from the 2025-2026 school year.

Ms. Tran confided: “The first benefit for parents is to reduce the financial burden on the family, helping to save money to invest in other things. This is a great support for parents in the journey of raising children. I am very grateful for the attention of the Party and State in the field of education”.

From the 2025-2026 school year, public high school students will also be exempted from tuition fees

Having a family with difficult circumstances, when learning about the tuition exemption policy, Pham Thi Huynh Ngan - a student of class 10A2, Le Quy Don High School (Tan An City), is greatly moved.

Ngan confided: “My family lives in a rented house, my parents work at factory to support me and my sister's education. At the beginning of each school year, my parents have to pay for our tuition fees, especially next year, when my sister enters grade 10, the fees will be higher. Knowing that tuition fees will be exempted for the 2025-2026 school year, my family is very happy”.

For Nguyen Thi Thanh Hang - student of class 10A6, My Lac High School (Thu Thua district), the tuition exemption policy will be a source of motivation for students in difficult circumstances to strive even harder.

Hang confided: “Exempting tuition fees will help my family reduce financial pressure; at the same time, it will give me more motivation to study.”

The tuition exemption policy for students from public kindergarten to high school from the 2025-2026 school year is a clear demonstration of the goal of leaving no one behind in education. The joy of going to school will no longer be limited by economic conditions but will spread widely to all students, whether in favorable or difficult areas./.
