In the 2025-2026 school year, the Department of Education and Training has identified two key tasks: promoting digital transformation and improving the quality of education. In the first week of the new school year, schools in the province conducted surveys and assessments of the quality of the beginning of the year to classify students' abilities, thereby building appropriate educational methods, nurturing good students, and supporting weak students.

Students living away from home at Chieng Dong Secondary School, Yen Chau commune are given the opportunity to stay at a boarding school.

Mr. Nguyen Van Chien, Director of the Department of Education and Training, said: The new point of this school year is that the Department will organize common tests and surveys for all grades from primary to high school, instead of letting schools create their own questions as before. The creation of questions and grading will be carried out synchronously on the OLM system, ensuring objectivity, transparency and accurately reflecting the quality of students. Based on the survey results, the Department will direct schools to focus on overcoming limitations, thereby improving the quality of education in a substantial way.

In addition, the Department of Education and Training is also focusing on solving the shortage of teachers. The whole province currently has over 23,500 managers and teachers at all levels. However, after reviewing, there is still a shortage of over 1,000 teachers, especially teachers of special subjects such as English and Information Technology. In the short term, the Department will mobilize and second teachers between schools to promptly make up for the shortage; in the long term, it will advise on new recruitment plans to ensure enough human resources for all levels.

Quickly stabilizing order right from the beginning of the school year is a favorable start for the education sector of Son La province to successfully carry out the school year's tasks, gradually improve the quality of education, and meet the requirements of fundamental and comprehensive educational innovation in the current period.
