New school-year of 2012 – 2013 is coming. Up to now, basic preparations for it have been finished.

In the school-year of 2012 – 2013, Khanh Hoa Province has 31 high schools, 104 secondary ones, 188 primary ones and 176 nursery ones with about 255,700 pupils. To prepare for the school year, the provincial Department of Education and Training have upgraded, built more schools and classes and improve teaching force.

Khanh Son District, Son Binh Secondary School in Son Binh Commune will start operation in time. The new school with 12 classrooms has been invested nearly VND4 billion. This brings happiness for pupils and parents. “ Son Binh Secondary School will receive pupils of two mountainous communes Son Binh and Son Hiep. Before, the pupils had to walk up to 10 kilometers to go to Son Lam Secondary School , so many of them dropped out of school. From this school-year, their studies will get easier”, Pham Van Buu, principal of the new school happily said.

In Dien Khanh District, Dien Tan Primary and Secondary School will be established. Dien Khanh Town Primary School and Town 1 Primary School will be merged. The new schools will have 12 more classrooms with new desks, benches and teaching equipment to receive more pupils and teachers.

Additionally, Dien Khanh will also open new campuses of Dien Lam Nursery School (invested VND9 billion), Mac Dinh Chi Secondary School (VND10 billion), Dien Toan Primary School (VND3 billion), Dien Lac Nursery School (VND12 billion).

In Cam Ranh District, only 10 new classrooms of Phan Chu Trinh Secondary School in Cam Thanh Nam Commune will be put into operation in time while other works, including 12 new classrooms of Ba Ngoi Primary School, 6 classrooms of Cam Phu Primary School and 6 ones of Nguyen Van Troi Secondary School are still in progress.

Beside this, schools in the province opened summer classes to retrain weak pupils. Nguyen Tan Lam, manager of Khanh Son Education and Training Bureau said, “Right from June, primary schools in the district have opened Vietnamese speaking classes for 6-year-old children who are ethnic minority people to prepare for them to enter the first grade.”

However, education of the province also remains some difficulties, especially in mountainous areas. Son Binh Primary School still lacks a lot of equipment. For example, working offices of the school managing board have no computers. Primary school of Thanh Son and Ba Cum Nam haven’t enough rooms to two shifts a day. Some nursery schools have to borrow rooms of the commune’s People Committee. Therefore, few primary schools in Khanh Son have day-boarding.

In Van Ninh District, there’s a lack of teachers and medical workers for schools, according to Nguyen Tan Thanh, head of Van Ninh Education and Training Bureau.

Le Tuan Tu, director of the provincial Education and Training Department, said, “Overcoming difficulties, all schools in Khanh Hoa Province will start new school-year on September 5.”
