Organizations that provide extra teaching and learning outside of school must register their business.

(NLDO) - The Ministry of Education and Training stipulates that organizations and individuals who organize extra teaching and learning outside of school and collect money from students must register their business.

Accordingly, for extra teaching and learning in schools, the new Circular limits the subjects who are allowed to take extra classes in schools to 3 groups, including: Students whose study results of the last subject of the previous semester are not satisfactory; Students selected by the school to foster excellent students; Final year students who voluntarily register to review for entrance exams and graduation exams according to the school'seducation plan.

The new circular stipulates that teachers at schools are not allowed to teach extra classes outside of school and collect fees from students that the teacher is assigned to teach according to the school's educational plan. This regulation is intended to limit teachers from taking their students out to teach extra classes.

Regarding the cost of organizing extra teaching and learning: These 3 subjects are the responsibility of the school to train and are included in the content of the school's educational plan. No tuition is collected from students.

The Ministry of Education and Training stipulates that extra classes are arranged by subject for each grade; each class has no more than 45 students according to the regulations of the General School Charter. In one week, each subject has no more than 2 extra periods (to ensure that it does not exceed the average number of periods of subjects according to the regulations of the general education program). Do not arrange extra teaching hours interspersed with the timetable for implementing the main curriculum (to limit the negative effects of forcing students to take extra classes). Do not teach extra content ahead of the subject program distribution in the school's education plan.
