The Ministry of Education and Training said that changing administrative boundaries and implementing a two-level government directly affects the curriculum of four subjects: history and geography from grades 4 to 9; geography grade 12; history grade 10 and civic education grade 10, so it is necessary to revise the curriculum of these subjects.

The Ministry of Education and Training has just sent to the Departments of Education and Training comments on the revision of the curriculum of a number of subjects. This revision is to meet the requirements of rearranging provincial administrative units and implementing a two-level local government.

Some of the expected revised contents in the subjects are as follows: For the subject of civic education, amend and supplement the 10th grade program in the topics of the political system of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam and the Constitution of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.

For history subject: revise and supplement the optional study topic in grade 10: "Vietnamese State and law in history".

For the geography subject in history and geography: revise and supplement the curriculum in grades 4, 5, 8, 9 and geography in grade 12. The revisions are mainly about socio -economic regions, such as regional boundaries; names and number of provinces and cities, area size, population of the region; economic development resources and the development and distribution of economic sectors in socio-economic regions; administrative maps; population maps, maps of sectors and economic regions in Vietnam.

For the history sub-subject in history and geography, revise and supplement the program in grade 7: periodization according to European history; in grade 9: periodization of the renovation process in Vietnam from 1986 to present.

The issuance of the circular amending and supplementing the 2018 General Education Program by the Minister of Education and Training ensures that the general education program is updated with content suitable for changes, ensuring the scientific nature and practicality of social science subjects in the general education program.

The issuance of circulars amending and supplementing the general education program is the legal basis for considering and revising textbooks to suit reality.
