A parent sent to Tuoi Tre Online the following question: In the 2024-2025 school year, Ho Chi Minh City will enroll students for grade 6 entirely online.

Phase 1, priority is given to students residing in the area, having completed primary school and within the prescribed age.

In the second phase, based on the units that have not recruited enough students, the primary enrollment steering committee decides to open the second phase of enrollment and at the same time stipulates the subjects that are allowed to register during this phase. Registration is still carried out online at the enrollment page prescribed by the Department of Education and Training.

My child has a registered residence and actually resides on Luy Ban Bich Street, Phu Thanh Ward, Tan Phu District, 450m from Dong Khoi Secondary School according to Google Maps.

If my child is not enrolled here due to a database error, who do I contact for support?

* Mr. Phan Si Dat - Head of the Department of Education and Training of Tan Phu District, Ho Chi Minh City - replied : In the 2024 - 2025 school year, enrollment at kindergartens, primary schools, and secondary schools in Tan Phu District will be conducted according to GIS maps as directed by the city.

In Tan Phu district, there are some wards that lack schools. Therefore, even with GIS mapping, it is impossible to have 100% of primary school students attend the school closest to their home if the ward is densely populated and lacks schools. Therefore, depending on the ward and the actual number of students residing, whether students can attend the school closest to their residence or not.

In wards lacking schools, there are many students of admission age for the 2024-2025 school year, and it is not possible to arrange for students to study at the school closest to their residence. The Tan Phu District Admissions Steering Committee still allocates students based on scanned GIS maps so that students can study at the school closest to their home (the school closest to their home is ranked second) and maintains that principle in admission.

In case of data file problems or errors, parents can contact the Tan Phu District Department of Education and Training for guidance on how to resolve the issue.
