On February 20, the Ministry of Education and Training decided to establish an inspection team to inspect the implementation of Circular No. 29 regulating extra teaching and learning, which will be implemented from February 20 to March 20. The team is led by Deputy Minister of Education and Training Pham Ngoc Thuong, with 2 deputy heads and 7 other members. Hanoi is the first locality to be inspected. After Hanoi, the team will continue to work with other provinces and cities.

Deputy Minister of Education and Training Pham Ngoc Thuong, Head of the inspection team of the Ministry of Education and Training, emphasized the viewpoint that "Circular 29 aims to eliminate extra teaching and learning in schools" and expressed the hope that officials and teachers would fully recognize the consequences and harms of extra teaching and learning for students and teachers themselves, in order to seriously implement the circular.

The Deputy Minister requested that all levels of management thoroughly grasp the "5 no's" viewpoint and effectively implement the "4 upholds".

5 no's include: no "beating the drum and leaving the drumstick", no compromise, no tolerance, no distortion, no saying it's difficult but not doing it.

The four values ​​to be emphasized are: the role of educational managers at all levels; teachers' self-respect, self-esteem, and devotion to students; students' self-awareness and self-study; and the role of the school-family-society relationship.
