Vietnam aims high with global education integration scheme until 2030
Deputy Prime Minister Le Thanh Long has signed a decision approving a scheme on global integration in education and training until 2030, aimed at fostering socio-economic development, people-to-people diplomacy and international cooperation across various sectors. The scheme targets having at least 10 administrative units join the UNESCO Global Network of Learning Cities by 2030, and integrating foreign curricula into preschools and general education establishments in five more cities and provinces.
A key pillar of this scheme is the aspiration for all of high school students to meet national standards for foreign language proficiency, with a particular emphasis on establishing English as a second language in schools. It also prioritises the professional development of teachers and education managers at all levels, ensuring they possess the necessary foreign language skills to guide their students effectively.
