Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said that the 2025 high school graduation exam will take place in a special context, right before the time when the two-level local government system comes into operation from July 1. The organization of the exam will be carried out by three-level local governments, but the grading and announcement of exam results will be done by two-level local governments. Along with that, the exam will be organized for both students studying under the 2018 GeneralEducation Program and students studying under the 2006 Program. In addition, this year there will be an increase of nearly 100,000 candidates compared to 2024.

The Prime Minister noted that the organization of the exam must absolutely not be subjective or negligent because sudden and unexpected factors may arise, and it is necessary to be prepared to respond; focusing on preventing negativity in all stages of the exam.

The Prime Minister requested the Ministry of Education and Training, relevant agencies, sectors, and localities to pay attention to organizing the exam in a safe, serious, objective, concise, reliable, effective manner, reducing pressure and costs, creating the most favorable conditions for each candidate to demonstrate their abilities. Ensure the most favorable conditions for candidates taking the exam, from facilities, human resources, healthcare , security, safety, travel support plans to timely and complete information; do not let any candidate be prevented from taking the exam due to subjective reasons of related entities.

All levels, sectors and localities coordinate closely with the education sector and the participation of the entire political system to innovate the exam in terms of content, scale, form and improve quality.

The Prime Minister requested the Ministry of Education and Training to ensure that the exam questions are of high quality, closely following the general education program that has been studied, with appropriate levels of differentiation, especially since this year's exam is organized for two groups of students studying two programs. The exam must be organized in a way that accurately reflects the core and basic knowledge of the two programs.

Absolutely ensure safety and accuracy, no negligence, incidents, or negativity in transportation, printing, and exam management.

Develop a project to prepare necessary conditions for a pilot program to organize computer-based exams in some localities from 2027, moving towards organizing computer-based exams as soon as possible.

Actively coordinate closely with the Ministry of Public Security to train and guide localities in implementing solutions to prevent and combat negativity, especially the use of high-tech equipment and artificial intelligence (AI) to cheat in exams.

The Prime Minister also noted that the People's Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities should thoroughly decentralize, ensure greater flexibility and initiative for localities in organizing the exam, and be responsible for comprehensively directing the preparation and organization of the exam in the locality.
