Regarding the new school model VNEN, the propaganda work needs to clarify that this is an educational model based on the Colombian EN model, which has been highly appreciated by the United Nations and international organizations and has been replicated in dozens of countries in the Americas. However, during the implementation process in Nghe An with 73 pilot schools, there were objections from public opinion because the implementation of the model did not pay due attention to a number of factors such as: the qualifications of the teaching staff, facilities, and was not suitable due to the large number of students... According to Official Dispatch No. 4068/BGDÐT-GDTrH of the Ministry of Education dated August 18 on the implementation of the new school model from the 2016-2017 school year, the implementation of VNEN will be based on the spirit of voluntariness, not forced.
