In recent years, with many efforts, Nghe An has been concentrating resources and effectively implementing national target projects and programs for education in ethnic minority and mountainous areas with the desire to improve and enhance the quality of education.
Nghe An province currently has more than 400 primary, secondary and high schools in mountainous districts. Of these, there are 8 ethnic boarding schools, 83 semi-boarding schools and more than 50 schools with semi-boarding ethnic minority students.

However, the quality of general education in especially difficult areas and ethnic minorities is still limited, not comprehensive, below average compared to the general level of the whole province, and uneven between regions.

This solution will "retain" students, helping them have the conditions to study and live in a complete and friendly educational environment. There, "the boarding school is considered a home and teachers will be their parents".

In particular, the school's education program is required to be close to the learners and the psychological characteristics of students, thereby helping students develop their qualities, capacities, self-study ability, and learning awareness. Implement innovation in teaching methods in the direction of differentiation, closely following the subjects, developing qualities and capacities suitable for ethnic minority students. Increase the application of information technology in teaching, testing, and evaluating students. Strengthen Vietnamese for primary school students in ethnic minority areas, focusing on building a Vietnamese communication and exchange environment for children and students.

The boarding school model has helped students in remote communes have the opportunity to study and develop their own abilities. From there, it creates a quality human resource for mountainous districts in the future. Photo: My HaIn recent times, in addition to the central government's policies, Nghe An has also had many policies to develop and improve the quality of education in particularly difficult areas. The policies are quite comprehensive, including policies on investment in school facilities and equipment; policies for managers and teachers; policies for students in areas with particularly difficult socio-economic conditions, including scholarship policies, tuition exemptions, social subsidies, learning support, priority policies for university and college admissions, education development policies for ethnic minorities, policies to enhance Vietnamese for children and students in ethnic minority areas, and the implementation of the recruitment system that is being implemented... The implementation of central and local policies has had a great effect, contributing to the development and improvement of the quality of education in particularly difficult areas of Nghe An province.
