In an official dispatch sent to the Departments of Education and Training of localities including Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Nghe An, Ninh Binh, and Quang Tri regarding the time of organizing the 2025 high school graduation exam, the Ministry of Education and Training said it acknowledged and highly appreciated the proactiveness of the units in proposing to adjust the exam schedule to meet the practical requirements of the localities and other actual situations.

After considering many factors, the Ministry of Education and Training decided to keep the 2025 high school graduation exam schedule as announced in the 2024-2025 school year plan.

According to the 2024-2025 school year plan announced by the Ministry of Education and Training, the 2025 high school graduation exam is expected to take place on June 26-27.

The Ministry of Education and Training believes that this contributes to stabilizing the psychology of students and parents and does not affect other activities in the education sector.

The Ministry of Education and Training requested that the Departments closely coordinate with relevant units to implement the 2024-2025 school year plan and organize the high school graduation exam according to plan to ensure safety, seriousness and compliance with regulations.

Previously, the Department of Education and Training of 5 localities including Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Nghe An, Ninh Binh, and Quang Tri proposed the Ministry of Education and Training to adjust the time to organize the 2025 high school graduation exam earlier in the context that the whole country is implementing the arrangement and merger of provinces and cities and completing district-level tasks.

According to the Departments, moving the exam schedule up earlier is to ensure the rights and psychological stability of students, while facilitating the preparation work of localities to organize the exam safely, seriously, and in accordance with regulations.

After the merger of provinces will be completed before August 30, is it necessary to move up the high school graduation exam schedule earlier? After the news that the merger of provinces will be completed before August 30, many people are wondering whether it is necessary to move up the high school graduation exam schedule for 2025 by 3 weeks, instead of the old schedule scheduled for June 26-27.
