Many works have left a deep impression, because of the elaborate investment in both content and form. The works deeply analyze the "hot" issues of the education sector; record the actual implementation or social criticism of the policies and decisions of the sector; record the thoughts and aspirations of parents and students.

Many works spread beautiful stories of the education sector; examples of good people, good deeds; noble hearts, and dedication of teachers... Including teachers who stay in remote areas, stick to schools, stick to classes, and volunteer to "sow letters" in remote places of the country.

Through journalistic works, we see the commitment of reporters so that examples of teachers and the good values ​​that education brings can spread widely in society.

“In the process of innovation, in addition to opportunities and advantages, the education sector will also face many difficulties and challenges. More than ever, we always hope and appreciate the cooperation and contribution to support the education sector; including the support and companionship from press and media agencies”, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Do Thi Thu Hang expressed.
