A look at the advanced school

Faced with the demands of industrialization, modernization and international integration, improving the quality of education and human resources is seen as a top strategy. It is undeniable that in recent years, our education has achieved positive results. However, if we look at it seriously, there are still many things that make society worry and dissatisfied with the education sector, including many complaints about the quality of education and training, from primary, secondary, university to postgraduate levels. These shortcomings mainly originate from the fragmentation, sometimes haphazard thinking about education and skills, and management models. Building a model of advanced schools can be considered one of the efforts to overcome these "errors".

The humaneness of the idea of ​​building advanced schools can be seen in the fact that it opens up opportunities to awaken the potential of learners. A society that knows how to govern, first of all, knows how to create opportunities and conditions for people to release positive energies, to perfect their personalities, to affirm and contribute. Advanced schools with their advantages and the prominence of learners will create a "mirror" effect to stimulate the formation of a real learning society. Of course, intellectual potential alone is not enough, but also financial potential and capacity. And this may be the most worrying thing.

However, all of these humanistic values ​​can only be achieved by applying strict “rules”, even not afraid to be harsh in strategy and tactics, such as financial transparency, transparency in learners and especially in recruiting personnel to participate in the education process. And this is really not easy when not all managers, officials and workers in this environment can meet the quality requirements. The criteria for recruiting civil servants is something precarious if we only believe in the achievements, degrees and rewards in an environment where accuracy and fairness have not reached the absolute level, if not to say there are still many deviations.

Not to mention, upgrading a traditional school (even though it has met national standards) to an advanced school will raise a question about human resources, because it is not easy for 100% of the staff and workers who are on the payroll of the unit to be "qualified" enough to survive the new requirements that are more or less sudden. Even choosing subjects is a challenge, especially subjects that are highly practical and related to physical activities.

The most important thing in building an advanced school is consistency. A fragmented state will lead to shortcomings that everyone can see very clearly. In this case, opening up opportunities for one person will also close opportunities for another. Building a model school in a few areas will lead to the fact that there are students, although they are as intelligent as anyone else, but do not have enough financial capacity, they will have to move to another area further away. This first of all makes it difficult for them to move and adapt to the environment.

From another perspective, building advanced schools in a "sticky rice" style also creates injustices in service enjoyment, in opportunities to develop capacity and access knowledge, in the journey to the future, such as the opportunity to compete for admission to prestigious, quality universities, and of course, then job opportunities... Because if studying at an advanced school that is truly advanced, students will have more opportunities in the journey ahead, which before the existence of advanced schools, it was divided equally for everyone.

In addition, the construction of advanced schools not uniformly will contribute to creating discrimination among learners in a society where this is quite common; it can also create income gaps between people in the same profession, job, salary level... It also affects traffic, even social order, cultural structure, and universal education in the areas...
