Foreign Language Secondary School was established in April 2019, under the University of Foreign Languages, Vietnam National University, Hanoi. In the first enrollment of grade 6, the school recruited 100 students but received up to 3,000 applications, making the competition ratio up to 1/30, on average, for every 30 students taking the exam, only one was admitted.

From 2022, the school increased its enrollment quota to 150, so the competition rate in the past two years has decreased to about 1/16. However, this is still the highest competition rate for grade 6 among schools that organize entrance exams nationwide.

Last year, the school's 6th grade benchmark was 48/80 points.
