Accordingly, the lowest fee is for preschool education in communes in region III with 8,000 VND/child/month; the highest fee is for high school in communes in region I with 35,000 VND/student/month.

Question: My family has 2 children, 1 is studying at preschool in the commune, and the other is studying at high school in the district located in the town, both in Lai Chau province. I would like to ask how the tuition fee will be collected for the 2024-2025 school year?
