According to the Ministry of Education and Training's electronic information portal, speaking at the working session, Deputy Minister Pham Ngoc Thuong emphasized that the 2025 high school graduation exam is a particularly important exam for the education sector, taking place in a context of many changes: organizing two-level local government, transferring the ministry's inspection function to the Government Inspectorate .

Mr. Thuong requested that the decentralization and delegation of authority in inspection and examination work must be clear and effective. The inspection and examination process must be linked to the system of documents, organizational structure, and have a summary of specific results, with clear people, clear work, and clear responsibilities.

"Strengthen the role of localities, do not leave any "blank spots" in inspection and examination. Provinces need to proactively resolve issues on the spot, promptly summarize, seriously announce, to the right people, the right job", Deputy Minister Thuong emphasized.

Regarding the exam questions, Mr. Thuong also noted that the exam questions must ensure a correct assessment of the ability to implement the 2018 General Education Program, clearly demonstrating differentiation to serve both graduation and admission goals.

At the same time, it is necessary to mobilize a full team of professionals and experience to ensure a strict, objective and absolutely safe test-making process.

The 2025 high school graduation exam will take place on June 25, 26, and 27. On June 25, candidates will complete exam registration procedures; on June 26 and 27, candidates will take the exam.

According to statistics from the Ministry of Education and Training, there are 1,165,289 candidates nationwide registered for the exam. Of these, more than 1.12 million candidates are grade 12 students of the 2018 general education program; there are 42,782 independent candidates.
