Ly Bon Primary School has more than 700 students in 13 locations. Due to the large population area, the farthest students are more than 30km from the school and mainly travel by mountain roads. The school is not yet qualified to switch to the model of a boarding school for ethnic minorities, so there are still many separate locations.

Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Man, Principal of Yen Tho Primary and Secondary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities, affirmed that with the donated computer classroom, the school has the conditions to better implement IT teaching for students from grades 3 to 9.
