School year 2025 - 2026: Discipline, creativity for breakthrough and development

At this time, educational institutions have prepared important contents and key solutions to successfully implement the new school year theme.

Realizing the school year theme

According to Mr. Pham Van Gieng - Vice Principal of Secondary and High School of Pedagogy ( Hanoi National University of Education 2), the theme of the 2025 - 2026 school year is of special importance. If the last school year focused on "innovation, quality improvement, solidarity and discipline", the 2025 - 2026 school year emphasizes two more factors: Breakthrough and development.

Putting “discipline” first has an orientational meaning: Only when there is order, discipline, and unity can there be conditions for creativity and breakthroughs. The “breakthrough” factor is a new requirement, so that each school not only innovates locally, but also creates a mark, a turning point of fundamental nature. “Development” is the ultimate goal, associated with the strategic vision: Developing Vietnamese people comprehensively, realizing the goal that by 2030, Vietnamese education will reach the advanced level of the Asian region; by 2045, it will reach the advanced level of the world .

“At the Pedagogical Secondary and High School, we have chosen a number of highlights: Improving the quality of the staff, expanding creative learning spaces, investing in digital transformation and career guidance activities, so that students not only study well, but also have the opportunity to develop their abilities in the new era,” said Mr. Pham Van Gieng.

With the characteristics of continuing education, Mr. Lam Huynh Manh Dong - Director of An Giang 2 Continuing Education Center (An Giang province) highly appreciated the profound and practical meaning of the new school year's theme. Accordingly, it requires each cadre, teacher and student to constantly change their thinking and methods to meet the requirements of the digital transformation and international integration era.

Specifically, Mr. Lam Huynh Manh Dong said that An Giang 2 Continuing Education Center has identified a number of focuses and highlights in the new school year to effectively implement the school year's theme.

First of all, focus on strengthening discipline and order in management and teaching by increasing responsibility and transparency in management, strictly implementing professional regulations, and building a friendly, safe, and disciplined learning environment.

Promote innovation and creativity in teaching: Apply information technology and digital transformation in management, teaching, testing and assessment; encourage teachers to design creative lessons suitable for continuing education students.

Breakthrough in expanding training types and content: Cooperate with vocational training institutions and community learning centers to open more practical skills and career training programs that are suitable to social needs.

Developing staff capacity: Strengthening professional training, expertise, and digital transformation skills for staff and teachers, ensuring that each teacher is a core of innovation.

Regarding Lam Kinh High School (Lam Son, Thanh Hoa), according to information from Principal Nguyen Minh Dao, in terms of breakthrough, the school aims to improve the quality of excellent students, while closely supporting weak students; promoting cooperation with educational institutions, researching and applying smart classroom models. In terms of development, the school will focus on training teachers to improve their expertise and skills, encourage initiatives; develop a friendly and professional school culture; and persistently build brand and reputation.

Synchronize solutions

Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu Hang - Principal of A Luoi High School (A Luoi 2 Commune, Hue City), shared 4 key points that the school will focus on in the new school year to realize the theme of the school year, which are: Building and maintaining discipline and order; innovating teaching, testing and evaluation methods; making breakthroughs in digital transformation; comprehensively developing students; improving the quality of staff.

Sharing the solution, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu Hang said that the school will continue to create all conditions, encourage teachers to innovate methods, boldly apply technology and organize creative activities. Launch emulation movements associated with the school year's theme, promptly reward individuals and groups with outstanding contributions. At the same time, promote socialization, closely coordinate with parents and localities to create a comprehensive educational environment.

“We hope that education management levels will increase training and foster professional capacity and digital skills for teachers; have appropriate remuneration and support policies for teachers, especially in disadvantaged areas; and continue to invest in modern facilities and teaching equipment,” the Principal of A Luoi High School suggested.

Also talking about solutions, Mr. Nguyen Minh Dao said that Lam Kinh High School will specify the goals with detailed plans for each group and individual; attach responsibility to results; regularly check, evaluate, and promptly reward. Organize seminars and training to update new methods, share experiences; promote the role of the Youth Union and parents in supporting educational activities.

“On the industry side, we recommend continuing to focus on investing in facilities and teaching equipment; building mechanisms to encourage and motivate teachers to innovate; strengthening connections, creating opportunities for experience and career guidance for students,” Mr. Nguyen Minh Dao shared.

From the teaching and management practices at the Pedagogical Secondary and High School, Vice Principal Pham Van Gieng realized that many solutions can effectively implement the theme of the school year. Accordingly, to have "discipline", the school seriously implements teaching and learning, strengthens school culture, and promotes the sense of responsibility of each teacher and each student.

To be “creative,” it is necessary to continue to innovate teaching methods, apply digital technology, and encourage teachers to implement open learning hours, linking knowledge with practice. In this regard, the school has developed interdisciplinary learning projects to help students practice creative thinking and problem-solving skills.

To have a “breakthrough”, we need to boldly open up new activities, from science research club models, STEM playgrounds, to connecting high schools with universities, helping students access high-level academic environments early. Breakthroughs also come from digital transformation in management, using online platforms to personalize learning for each student.

To achieve “development”, according to Mr. Pham Van Gieng, the ultimate goal is to comprehensively develop learners. The school focuses on developing knowledge, skills, qualities and career orientation for students, aiming for well-rounded people, “global citizens with identity”, who are empathetic, cooperative and persistent. “We hope that the education sector will continue to support policies and mechanisms so that schools have more conditions to implement advanced models, creating momentum for sustainable development”, Mr. Pham Van Gieng suggested.

The theme of the 2025-2026 school year: “Discipline - Creativity - Breakthrough - Development” demonstrates the comprehensiveness and determination to innovate of the education sector. This theme is not only a slogan, but also a specific direction for action for each school unit. - Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu Hang, Principal of A Luoi High School
