Hanoi plans to collect a maximum of 12,000 VND/hour for after-school student care services.

Hanoi announced a draft Resolution stipulating the list of revenues and collection levels, and the mechanism for managing revenues and expenditures for services serving and supporting educational and training activities at public preschool and general education institutions (excluding high-quality public educational institutions) from the 2025-2026 school year.

The subjects of application of the Resolution are preschool children and high school students studying at public preschool and general education institutions (excluding high-quality public educational institutions); students studying at vocational education and continuing education institutions according to the general education program of Hanoi city.

The Resolution also applies to public preschools, general education institutions, and vocational and continuing education institutions in the city (excluding high-quality public schools).

The draft provides after-school childcare and student care services (including care before and after school hours, excluding meals) with a ceiling fee of VND 12,000/student/hour.

In addition, after-hours childcare and student care services during holidays (not including meals) are 96,000 VND/student/hour.

Some other revenues also remain at the ceiling level, including: 235,000 VND/month for boarding care services; 16,000 VND/month for drinking water; and 10,000 VND/km for school bus services.

In particular, the new Draft Resolution removes two types of services including “two-session/day study for junior high school level” and “extracurricular educational activities, supplementary training in cultural subjects organized by public educational institutions”. This is to ensure compliance with current regulations on extra teaching, extra learning and the organization of two-session/day study in schools.

According to the draft, educational institutions are responsible for collecting service fees to serve and support educational and training activities for management and use according to regulations; and returning payment receipts to learners according to prescribed regimes.

At the same time, there are appropriate exemptions and reductions for students who are policy beneficiaries or have difficult circumstances. In the case of online learning, public preschool and general education institutions do not implement the collection fees specified in this resolution.
