Adjust some content about history and geography
On the evening of June 14, the Ministry of Education and Training informed about the review and adjustment of some contents in the 2018 General Education Program (GEP) to ensure its suitability with reality and the new development context.
Accordingly, the 2024-2025 school year is the year in which the 2018 General Education Program will be implemented in a cycle from grade 1 to grade 12 according to the roadmap. Implementing the instructions of the National Assembly and the Government, the Ministry of Education and Training has organized steps to review and evaluate the implementation of the 2018 General Education Program.
In 2025, the review of curriculum and textbooks will be carried out in the context of the whole country implementing the arrangement of provincial-level administrative units according to Resolution No. 202/2025/QH15 dated June 12, 2025 of the National Assembly on the arrangement of provincial-level administrative units.

Based on the review, the Ministry of Education and Training has identified a number of subjects that are directly affected by the change of administrative boundaries, including: History and geography for grades 4, 5, and 9; geography for grade 12; history for grade 10; and economic and legal education for grade 10.
These subjects will take steps according to regulations to edit the subject program as a basis for editing textbooks, such as updating requirements, knowledge content, place names, data, maps, charts and socio-economic information, etc.
"The revision of the subject program is carried out on the principle of minimizing changes to textbooks and strengthening guidance so that teachers and schools can proactively implement the program according to their authority to suit reality," the Ministry of Education and Training emphasized.
2025-2026 school year continues to use current textbooks
The Ministry added that the 2018 General Education Program reflects the goals of general education, ensuring a unified orientation and core, compulsory educational content for students.
Textbooks specify the content of the general education program and are identified as important learning materials and documents for schools to choose to organize teaching. Teachers and schools are given the right to proactively arrange learning topics, update and supplement content to suit the students, teaching and learning conditions and practical conditions.
“Therefore, in the 2025-2026 school year, teachers and schools will continue to use the current curriculum and textbooks, while being responsible for proactively selecting and adjusting teaching materials, lessons, and topics to suit local realities and the two-level government model,” the Ministry of Education and Training instructed.

In the coming time, the Ministry of Education and Training will issue documents directing and guiding localities and schools to implement continuously, without interruption and in accordance with reality.
The Ministry of Education and Training is urgently completing the review and evaluation of the implementation of the 2018 General Education Program to update and adjust a number of subjects to ensure that the Program is implemented in accordance with reality, better meeting the requirements of innovation and the country's socio-economic development through each period; including subjects affected by administrative boundary adjustments.
The Ministry of Education and Training will guide publishers, organizations and individuals with approved textbooks to edit necessary content to update new administrative information in the direction of ensuring the stability of textbooks and effectiveness in teaching and learning implementation.
Regarding local education content, based on Resolution No. 202/2025/QH15 of the National Assembly on the arrangement of provincial-level administrative units, on the basis of the framework program and documents issued by the Ministry of Education and Training, localities proactively select and develop local education content.
These contents ensure that they are consistent with the characteristics of the new administrative unit and the two-level local government organization model, promote local initiative in organizing and implementing the program, and at the same time ensure that educational content is promptly updated according to new administrative and social changes.
