2 Why is foreign language no longer a compulsory subject?
When the high school graduation exam plan was announced, there were different opinions. Some people believe that this plan will help reduce costs and create conditions for candidates to fully demonstrate their strengths.
However, many people also have concerns. If foreign languages are no longer a compulsory subject, will it affect the quality of teaching this subject?
According to Lao Dong newspaper, at the press conference on the organization of the graduation exam and recognition of high school graduation from 2025 on the afternoon of November 29th, Professor Dr. Huynh Van Chuong, Director of the Quality Management Department, Ministry of Education and Training, said that there are up to 7 foreign languages and English is one of the foreign languages that high schools are currently choosing to teach.
Although foreign languages are no longer compulsory, students still have the right to take the exam for that subject in the high school graduation exam.
Explaining why foreign languages are no longer a compulsory subject in the high school graduation exam from 2025, Mr. Chuong said that according to the new general education program, foreign languages become a compulsory subject from grade 3 to grade 12. Therefore, throughout the process from grade 3 to 12, students will learn, be assessed, and evaluated in foreign languages.
