In order to encourage and motivate the spirit of overcoming difficulties and excelling in studying of local children, the mountainous border district of Quan Son (Thanh Hoa) has established the Hoa Ban Scholarship Fund.Poor district determined to promote education
Quan Son is one of the poorest localities in Thanh Hoa. After nearly 30 years of establishment, this is the first time Quan Son has established a fund for encouraging learning and talent with the support and contributions of the Thanh Hoa Provincial Association for Promoting Learning, organizations, individuals, civil servants, public employees..., with a total amount of money currently in the fund of more than 1.7 billion VND. The Hoa Ban Fund for Promoting Learning and Talent was recognized by the Chairman of the Thanh Hoa Provincial People's Committee on August 3, 2024. Mr. Vi Xuan Hiep - Chairman of the Quan Son District Association for Promoting Learning and Talent, concurrently Chairman of the Hoa Ban Fund for Promoting Learning and Talent said that despite the difficulties, the establishment of the Fund for Promoting Learning is an effort of the entire political system, marking the interest of all classes of people in education. "The Fund allocates funds to support students in difficult circumstances in the locality, so that no one has to drop out of school; awarding students and teachers who have won prizes in national, provincial and district competitions. We also hope that the fund will continue to grow, to fulfill its mission well", Mr. Hiep shared. Mr. Le Hong Quang - Chairman of Quan Son District People's Committee said that in recent years, the district's education sector has always received attention and close direction from the Department of Education and Training and the locality. Many resolutions and conclusions have been issued, creating a change in education work. School facilities and equipment have been invested in; the network of schools, classrooms, and education scale are reasonable... Thanks to that, the quality of education has many positive changes in both key and general areas... According to Mr. Quang, besides the achievements, education in this border district still faces many difficulties. Although facilities and equipment have been invested in, they have not met the requirements; there is still a shortage of teachers, especially in specific subjects. The quality of teaching and learning has not yet met expectations, and the situation of students dropping out of school due to difficult circumstances is happening... To encourage and motivate students, in recent years, communes, many local clans and the District Association for the Promotion of Education have made constant efforts in the work of promoting education and talents. In particular, the district has established the Hoa Ban Fund for the Promotion of Education and Talents. "This is a social fund, operating not for profit, with a spirit of volunteerism, supporting and encouraging the development of education and training, helping poor students in a timely manner to have more conditions and opportunities to continue going to school, realizing their ambitions... The fund also aims to nurture and create a platform for talented people in various fields to have more conditions and motivation to develop their talents, and encourage talented people to contribute their efforts and intelligence to the construction and development of their homeland", said Mr. Quang. According to Mr. Quang, the establishment of the Hoa Ban Fund for the Promotion of Education and Talents demonstrates the concern and dedication of the district leaders; the sharing and cooperation of the entire community in improving the quality of education to support students and teachers in difficult circumstances in the locality. “Since its establishment, the Hoa Ban Scholarship Fund only had 130 million VND. By the time the Fund was announced, it had raised more than 1.7 billion VND,” Mr. Quang added.

According to the above project, students selected in the district-level team to participate in the provincial-level excellent student competition in cultural subjects for grade 9 will be supported with 70,000 VND/day/student (no more than 90 days). Support for teachers directly training the provincial excellent student team is 170 thousand VND/session/subject/90 sessions (including 10 subjects).

Motivation for teachers and students to strive
According to Mr. Le Huy Ha - Head of the Department of Education and Training of Quan Son district, from 2018 to 2022, the locality has had a policy of rewarding students and teachers whose students won prizes in provincial-level competitions. However, the bonus level is still low, not commensurate with the achievements of teachers and students winning prizes when participating in review and study. In recent years, the district has not had any students winning national prizes, and there are very few provincial prizes. In addition, the district has not had a mechanism to support teachers and students winning prizes in district-level competitions, especially in cultural subjects. "With the efforts of teachers and students in the 2022-2023 school year, the district has had 1 Second Prize, 4 Third Prizes, and 5 Encouragement Prizes in the provincial-level excellent student competition for grade 9. In addition to the prizes in cultural subjects, Quan Son also participated in many competitions, such as: Science and Technology; Teachers in my eyes; Sports for primary and secondary school students... all have prizes," Mr. Ha informed. According to Mr. Ha, by the 2023-2024 school year, Quan Son had 25 secondary school students participating in the provincial excellent student competition, including the subjects: Math, Literature, English; Geography, Civic Education and History. The results achieved 8 prizes, including: 1 Second Prize, 3 Third Prizes, 2 Encouragement Prizes in Literature; 1 Encouragement Prize in History and 1 Encouragement Prize in Civic Education. The dedicated teachers with experience in nurturing excellent students in the district include: Nguyen Thi Thuong (Literature), Son Lu Primary & Secondary School; Tong Thi Phuong (History), Tam Thanh Secondary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities. In particular, teacher Hac Thi Hoa (Literature), Quan Son Secondary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities, is the one who guided 6 students to win provincial prizes. With the achievements of Ms. Hac Thi Hoa, the District Reward Council organized to award a total of more than 50 million VND. Ms. Hoa said that when the District People's Council issued a Resolution to develop the project, teachers and students were all excited. Because, up to now, the locality has never had such a large policy of encouraging learning and talent. The rewards for teachers and students in the project have become a driving force to promote the spirit of striving to teach well and study well of schools. "The team of teachers, students, and local people were even more excited when the district established the Hoa Ban Fund for Encouragement of Learning and Talent. This is a fund to give to poor students, teachers who have overcome difficulties to achieve high achievements in education. We are determined to teach well and study better, so that we have the opportunity to receive worthy rewards for ourselves," Ms. Hoa shared. The female student who won the second prize in Literature at the provincial level (2023-2024 school year) is Trinh Mai Linh, Son Lu Town Secondary and High School. During Linh's time at school, her teachers discovered that she had a talent for Literature. Therefore, the school proposed to the Department of Education and Training to include Mai Linh in the team, with Ms. Hoa coaching her. After winning the second prize in Literature at the provincial level, Trinh Mai Linh was awarded 10 million VND by the district according to the regulations in the project. "I have never received such a large amount of money before. That award has motivated us to strive to study better, to be worthy of the trust, love and hope of teachers, families and especially the district leaders," Mai Linh confided. With the efforts of teachers and students, in the provincial-level 9th grade cultural subject excellent student exam (2023-2024 school year), Quan Son won 8 prizes, including: 1 Second Prize, 3 Third Prizes, 2 Encouragement Prizes in Literature; 1 Encouragement Prize in History; 1 Encouragement Prize in Civic Education. This is also the highest achievement of the Quan Son Education sector to date. Mr. LE HUY HA (Head of the Department of Education and Training of Quan Son district)
