How much tuition support does the State provide for private school students?

According to Decree 238/2025 of the Government, students of private schools are also supported with tuition fees.

Recently, the Government issued Decree No. 238/2025, regulating policies on tuition fees, exemption, reduction, tuition support, support for learning costs and service prices in the field of education and training.

One of the new points of the Decree is that preschool children, high school students, and students of general education programs (students studying the continuing education program at the junior high school level and students studying the continuing education program at the high school level) in private educational institutions in the national education system are supported with tuition fees at the level prescribed by the Provincial People's Council (not exceeding the collection level of the institutions).

Accordingly, each level of education has a floor and ceiling. In which, the lowest tuition fee for Kindergarten and Primary school is 50,000 VND/month and the highest is 540,000 VND/month. At Secondary and High School levels, the common ceiling is 650,000 VND/month, the floor is 50,000 VND and 100,000 VND respectively.

The above tuition framework is the basis for determining the level of tuition support for private preschool children and students of private schools. At the same time, it is the basis for the State to determine the level of budget subsidies for public schools.

This tuition fee framework applies to the 2025-2026 school year. In the next 10 years, the tuition fee ceiling will be adjusted at a rate appropriate to the socio -economic conditions of each locality, the consumer price index growth rate, and the annual economic growth rate, but not exceeding 7.5%/year.

Regarding payment, the State will provide money directly to private school students.

Also from the 2025-2026 school year, preschool children and public school students nationwide will be completely exempt from tuition fees.
