(NLDO) - Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and some localities have proposed that the Ministry of Education and Training adjust the 2025 High School Graduation Exam schedule to early June 2025.
Director of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training Nguyen Van Hieu has just signed a document to the Ministry of Education and Training proposing to adjust the time of organizing the 2025 high school graduation exam from June 7 to 10. The Hanoi Department of Education and Training also proposed that the Ministry of Education and Training adjust the exam schedule earlier than the schedule announced by the Ministry of Education and Training.
Prof. Dr. Nguyen Ngoc Ha, Deputy Director of Department of Quality Management, Ministry of Education and Training
Regarding the proposal to adjust the high school graduation exam schedule, at the 2025 Admissions and Career Counseling Day, Prof. Dr. Nguyen Ngoc Ha, Deputy Director of the Department of Quality Management, Ministry of Education and Training, said that at present, the Ministry has no information on this issue. However, the Ministry always prepares flexible plans and depends on objective conditions.
Mr. Ha affirmed that the high school graduation exam is always prepared early and remotely. This is a national exam, taking place simultaneously in 63 provinces and cities. Therefore, each locality will not organize a high school graduation exam at a different time. Therefore, if there is a change in the scheduled exam schedule, it will take place simultaneously.
According to Mr. Ha, the exam preparation work has been decentralized to the local level. The change of exam schedule must be carefully calculated. The Ministry of Education and Training currently has no information on this issue, but in general, if it has to be changed, it must have minimal impact on the entire system, including students.
2025 is the first year that 12th graders will take the high school graduation exam according to the 2018 General Education Program.
In its proposal, the Hanoi Department of Education and Training said that in the 2024-2025 school year, Hanoi will have nearly 130,000 students taking the high school graduation exam. The number of students taking the high school graduation exam accounts for about 1/10 of the country. This is also the first year that high school students take the high school graduation exam according to the 2018 General Education Program and is also the school year that circulars related to enrollment, extra teaching and extra learning are applied.
With the largest number of students in the country and a large-scale exam organization, in order to prepare carefully and thoroughly, the Hanoi Department of Education and Training requested the Ministry of Education and Training to adjust the exam schedule earlier than the announced draft.
Meanwhile, according to the leader of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training, in the context that the whole country is implementing the arrangement and merger of provinces and cities and completing the district-level tasks according to Conclusion 127/2025 of the Politburo and the Secretariat on implementing research and proposing to continue arranging the organization of the political system, the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training proposed to adjust the exam time earlier, from June 7 to 10. At the same time, promptly issue directive documents, organization plans and exam schedules so that the Departments of Education and Training can proactively advise the People's Committees of provinces and cities to promptly implement them locally.
Nghe An Department of Education and Training has sent a document proposing to adjust the 2025 high school graduation exam schedule to June 8, 9 and 10.
If the exam schedule is adjusted, the Nghe An Department of Education and Training also requests the Ministry to allow adjustment of the teaching time frame for final year students to finish the program before May 10.
2025 is the first year that 12th graders will take the high school graduation exam according to the 2018 General Education Program. According to the announced plan, from the 2025 high school graduation exam, each candidate will take 4 subjects including: math, literature and 2 elective subjects from the remaining subjects (foreign language, history, physics, chemistry, biology, geography, economic and legal education, information technology, technology).
The literature test will be in essay format with a time limit of 120 minutes; the test consists of 2 parts: reading comprehension (4 points) and writing (6 points). The remaining subjects will be in multiple choice format, in which the math test will take 90 minutes, the remaining subjects will take 50 minutes.
