For many years, Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School has always been a "hot" school during the first-grade admission season, with a very high "competition" rate in both grade 6 and grade 10.
Not a specialized school - the cradle of training excellent students; nor an international school - which has good investment in facilities; Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School is an autonomous public school under Hanoi Pedagogical University, with very limited facilities. However, this school is the dream of parents and students in the capital. Perhaps the "attraction" lies in the educational philosophy of "putting personality first" that the teachers of this school have worked hard to build.
At the recent entrance exam for grade 6, parents in the capital were very moved when they saw the image of the Principal himself - coming to the gate to welcome and guide the candidates. Inside the Admissions Council, there are also warm "secrets" that the teachers of this school prepare for the students about to enter the school.
Dr. Pham Sy Cuong - Principal of Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School shared: From the Board of Directors, the Admissions Steering Committee, the teachers, the supervisors, the security guards, we all agree on the point of view: The students are very young, many of them are participating in a competition like this for the first time, so the school must pay attention to every smallest detail. "We remind the teachers to be affectionate, to avoid making the students panic. Before, during and after the competition, the students must be guided enthusiastically and thoughtfully." - The teacher said, It is known that because many students have not had breakfast, the school also prepared extra milk and cakes so that students in need can be given them immediately. The school also asked the local authorities to support an ambulance and two medical staff on duty to be ready to assist if any candidates have health problems.
The story of the recent 6th grade admission season is just a slice of the pedagogical environment of Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School - a school branded as a Happy School, with students at the center, where students come to school not only to learn knowledge, but also to eat well and study in the safest environment.
Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School is still called by parents and students as "NTT School" which is not only the first letter of President Ho Chi Minh's name when he was young, but also contains the school's philosophy. Sharing with the media recently, Dr. Pham Sy Cuong - Principal of the school said:
With Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School, we put the letter N - Personality above all. The next two letters T are Intelligence and Adaptability .
Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School aims to educate students to develop comprehensively. In addition to the clear evidence of the scores in the final exams. In recent years, Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School has always been in the Top 10 high schools with the highest graduation exam scores in Hanoi; There are classes where the majority of students have achieved IELTS English certificates from 7.0 and above and SAT from 1400 and above. Among them, many students have achieved both certificates with near-perfect scores...
In addition to general education, the school has 12 clubs: Arts, Sports and Orientation Clubs. This is a playground for students to relieve pressure and stress from studying, while nurturing and developing their own talents.
In the context of many social changes, the school also focuses on training students in adaptive skills and being steadfast in order to change. "Adaptation must be based on personality and intelligence so as not to be swept away by bad things. Students need to be intelligent and wise to do good - good in thought, word and action." Dr. Pham Sy Cuong shared.
Although it was established on the basis of public education, at Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School, many advanced educational models such as international educational models are applied. For example, in the subject of information technology, students are taught a separate program, after completing the level, students will be tested and awarded a globally valid certificate from Microsoft. The school also has cooperative relationships with many international schools in countries with advanced education, continuously having exchange programs, creating opportunities for students to interact with the world.
Regarding the results of admission to grade 6 for the 2025-2026 school year, the school will announce on June 10. On June 11, successful candidates will enroll directly at the school.
Following the competency assessment exam for 6th graders, the capital's education system will continue to witness the "heat" in the 10th grade entrance exam of Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School.
