The Ministry of Education and Training will adjust some content in the general education curriculum and textbooks.

In the context of the nationwide reorganization of provincial-level administrative units, the Ministry of Education and Training has identified several subjects that will be directly affected by changes in administrative boundaries. The Ministry stated that it will adjust some content of the general education curriculum to ensure it is consistent with the new practical context and development situation.

Regularly review the new general education curriculum.

The 2024-2025 academic year marked the completion of a full cycle of the 2018 General Education Program, covering grades 1 to 12 according to the established roadmap. In accordance with Resolution No. 88/2014/QH13 of the National Assembly, Directive No. 32/CT-TTg dated December 25, 2023, of the Prime Minister on continuing to promote the reform of the general education curriculum and textbooks, and Circular No. 32/2018/TT-BGDĐT dated December 26, 2018, of the Ministry of Education and Training on the promulgation of the General Education Program, the Ministry of Education and Training has conducted a review and evaluation of the implementation of the 2018 General Education Program.

"This is a regular, periodic task aimed at ensuring that the program is implemented in accordance with practical realities and meets the requirements of educational development at each stage," the Ministry of Education and Training announced on June 14.

During the evaluation process, several subjects and educational contents were proposed for updating and adjusting to better meet the requirements of innovation and the socio-economic development of the country.

In 2025, the review of curricula and textbooks was implemented in the context of the nationwide reorganization of provincial-level administrative units according to Resolution No. 202/2025/QH15 dated June 12, 2025, of the National Assembly on the reorganization of provincial-level administrative units. Based on the review, the Ministry of Education and Training identified several subjects directly affected by the changes in administrative boundaries, including: History and Geography for grades 4, 5, and 9; Geography for grade 12; and History and Economic and Legal Education for grade 10.

The curriculum and textbook content will be revised.

According to the Ministry of Education and Training, subjects directly affected by changes in administrative boundaries will undergo prescribed steps to revise their curricula, serving as a basis for revising textbooks. This includes updating learning objectives, knowledge content, place names, data, maps, charts, and socio-economic information, etc.

The revision of the curriculum is carried out on the principle of minimizing changes to textbooks, and strengthening guidance to enable teachers and schools to proactively implement the curriculum within their authority to suit the reality.

The Ministry of Education and Training stated that the 2018 General Education Program reflects the goals of general education, ensuring a unified direction and core, compulsory educational content for students. Textbooks concretize the content of the Program and are identified as important learning materials for schools to choose from in organizing teaching. Teachers and schools are given the autonomy to arrange learning topics, update and supplement content to suit the students, teaching conditions, and practical circumstances.

Therefore, for the 2025-2026 school year, teachers and schools will continue to use the current curriculum and textbooks, while also being responsible for proactively selecting and adjusting teaching materials, lessons, and topics to suit local realities and the two-tiered government model. In the coming period, the Ministry of Education and Training will issue directives and guidelines to localities and schools to ensure continuous, uninterrupted implementation that is appropriate to the actual situation.

The Ministry of Education and Training is urgently completing the review and evaluation of the implementation of the 2018 General Education Program to update and adjust some subjects to ensure that the Program is implemented in accordance with reality, better meeting the requirements of innovation and socio-economic development of the country in each stage; including subjects affected by administrative boundary adjustments.

The Ministry of Education and Training will guide publishers and organizations with approved textbooks to make necessary revisions to update the content with new administrative information, ensuring the stability of textbooks and their effectiveness in teaching and learning.

Regarding local education content, based on Resolution No. 202/2025/QH15 of the National Assembly on the reorganization of provincial-level administrative units, and on the basis of the framework program and documents issued by the Ministry of Education and Training, localities shall proactively select and develop local education content, ensuring it is consistent with the characteristics of the new administrative unit and the two-tiered local government organizational model, promoting the proactive role of localities in organizing the implementation of the program, while ensuring that the education content is updated promptly according to new administrative and social changes.
