Nearly 5,000 students do not enroll in grade 10, Ho Chi Minh City urgently recruits additional students

This decision is based on the previous proposal of the Department of Education and Training of Ho Chi Minh City. Accordingly, the Department will review the actual enrollment situation at educational institutions and decide on additional enrollment in grade 10, ensuring that it is suitable for the receiving capacity of educational institutions.

The Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee stated that during the implementation process, the Department is responsible for guiding and supervising educational institutions to strictly implement and report to the People's Committee after completing additional enrollment.

Nearly 5,000 students did not enroll in the first batch of 10th graders, Ho Chi Minh City began recruiting additional students. (Illustration photo).

After the decision of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee, the Department of Education and Training will publicize the remaining enrollment quota for grade 10 and the third-choice standard scores of each high school. Students who have failed all three choices to enter grade 10 in public schools in the 2023-2024 school year will be eligible to take additional enrollment for grade 10.

In which, the student's exam score must be equal to or greater than the standard score of the third choice of the high school that the student is applying to. Each student will be allowed to register for 1 additional choice for public grade 10. The principal of the high school will establish a supplementary admission council of his/her school, and only recruit until enough students are recruited.

On August 1, after the end of receiving applications for admission to public grade 10 for the 2023-2024 school year, the Department of Education and Training counted nearly 5,000 students who were admitted but did not enroll. Meanwhile, this year's public grade 10 entrance exam had nearly 20,000 candidates who failed all three of their wishes.

Schools with the highest dropout rates are located in the suburbs, such as Nguyen Van Linh High School and Phong Phu High School (nearly 40%); Nguyen Van Tang High School, Binh Chanh Sports Gifted School, and Trung Lap High School (nearly 30%).

Most of the above schools recruit 700-900 students for grade 10. The standard score is also low, ranging from 10.5-11.75 points for the three subjects Math, Literature, and Foreign Language.

Even at top schools with high admission scores like Bui Thi Xuan High School in District 1, 40 students still did not enroll. In addition, Gia Dinh High School and Nguyen Huu Cau High School also had 16-19 students who did not enroll.

According to regulations, candidates who do not complete admission procedures before the deadline will have their names removed from the admission list.
