At the meeting, the Department of Education and Training of Ho Chi Minh City requested the investor and the school board to submit a report before June 15, 2024 to the Department of Education and Training (the report must include evidence demonstrating the assurance of educational operation conditions as prescribed in the 2019 Education Law and a general report on the payment of debts to tax authorities, social insurance, salaries for teachers, staff, and other educational services).
However, after June 15, 2024, the Department of Education and Training of Ho Chi Minh City has not received a report from the unit to determine that the American International Primary, Secondary and High School is qualified to operate education according to the 2019 Education Law and Decree 46/2017/ND-CP.
Therefore, based on the provisions of Point b, Clause 1, Article 50 of the 2019 Law on Education and Point b, Clause 1, Article 30 of Decree No. 46/2017/ND-CP of the Government , due to not ensuring the conditions for being permitted to conduct educational activities, specifically not having enough financial resources as prescribed to ensure the maintenance and development of educational activities; the number of educational management staff is not sufficient to implement the educational program and organize educational activities; the Department of Education and Training of Ho Chi Minh City issued Decision No. 2042/QD-SGDĐT (dated June 28, 2024) on suspending the school's educational activities.

Accordingly, the Department of Education and Training has worked with 18 high schools with investment capital and teaching foreign programs to calculate the reception capacity and support policies for students who want to transfer from the American International School.
For schools teaching the International Baccalaureate (IB) program alone, the city's capacity to accept students in the 2024-2025 school year is 1,251 places, more than the number of students currently studying at the American International Primary, Secondary and High School.
