Integrating human rights content into primary school curriculum
Raising awareness of human rights The Ministry of Education and Training has identified Project 1309/QD-TTg of the Government on integrating human rights content into the education program in the national education system as a key educational task in the 2020-2025 period. The Ministry of Education and Training has organized and coordinated many activities to propagate, disseminate and educate knowledge about human rights for high school students. Thereby, helping students raise awareness and understanding of human rights, rights and obligations of citizens; protect their own rights and protect the rights of others when there are violations.

Human rightseducation content is directly integrated into the lessons of students in many subjects such as Ethics, Civic Education or Law...[/caption] Currently, for primary school level, human rights content has been included in the Ethics curriculum. Although some important results have been achieved, human rights education still needs to be further integrated into the curriculum in subjects and educational activities such as: Nature and Society, History and Geography, Vietnamese, Music, Fine Arts, Experiential Activities... Emphasizing that the integration of human rights education is necessary, the Deputy Minister analyzed that although human rights content has been included in the general education curriculum of some subjects, this content is not systematic and consistent, and is not full of human rights values, principles and standards. In addition, teaching and learning materials and materials on human rights in training institutions in the national education system, especially integrated guidance materials, are still lacking, affecting the quality and effectiveness of education and the training and development of teachers. Based on the above reasons, the Ministry of Education and Training also organized the compilation of a human rights content framework and proposed directions for implementing the human rights content framework in subject programs and educational activities to raise students' awareness and understanding of human rights and civil rights. Thereby, helping students know how to protect their own rights and protect the rights of others when there are violations. This is an effective method, contributing to strengthening the practice of rights in schools, preventing school violence and discrimination, and violations of human dignity. Effective integration into educational activities Head of the Department of Primary Education (Ministry of Education and Training) Thai Van Tai - said that the general education program forms and develops in students the qualities of patriotism, humanity, diligence, honesty, and responsibility.

Through human rights education, students will better understand their responsibilities and obligations, and at the same time understand the morality and ethics between students and students, students and teachers.[/caption] General competencies are formed and developed through all subjects and educational activities such as autonomy and self-study, communication and cooperation, problem-solving and creativity. It can be seen that the content of human rights and children's rights is of particular importance when effectively integrated into subjects and educational activities. Thereby, in order to achieve the goal of forming and developing the capacity and qualities of the general education program in general and the primary education program in particular. Mr. Thai Van Tai discussed that it is possible to build a plan to organize human rights education content in the School Education Plan with proactive and flexible forms. Accordingly, teachers can organize separate lessons, with each topic or integrate into cultural activities, club activities, competitions, etc. The development of an implementation plan depends on the objectives, content and requirements of the lesson and the knowledge flow. The content of education on human rights and children's rights is implemented at one of three levels: total, partial, and related.
