On the afternoon of August 25, a representative of Hai Duong Books and Educational Equipment Joint Stock Company said that up to this point, the company has supplied nearly 4.2 million copies of books from grades 1 to 12 to schools.
Hai Duong Books and Educational Equipment Joint Stock Company is urgently coordinating with publishers to supply the remaining books to schools.
This number of books increased by about 20% compared to the total number of books supplied by the company in 2021-2022 due to the first year of implementing the new textbook program for grades 3, 7 and 10. Textbooks alone reached more than 2.6 million copies, an increase of 13%, of which textbooks for grades 3, 7 and 10 were about 1 million copies.
The missing books are mainly grade 10 books. Basic textbooks are sufficient, only exercise books, teacher's books and specialized books are slow. The reason is that this year, students are studying the grade 10 program for the first time, including elective subjects and specialized topics. After the change in history, schools have just completed the registration. The publisher also does not have the aggregated data to estimate specialized books and exercises. Hai Duong Books and Educational Equipment Joint Stock Company is urgently coordinating with the publisher to supply the remaining books to schools.
Representatives of many high schools said they have received grade 10 books from Hai Duong Books and Educational Equipment Joint Stock Company and will soon deliver them to students. The company has basically delivered enough grade 3, grade 7 and other grade books to schools since June and July.
Hai Duong Books and Educational Equipment Joint Stock Company is a supplier of books to most schools in the province.
