Remembering building new urban areas, forgetting building schools
Published: 15/12/2008 05:00
VietNamNet Bridge – A lot of new urban areas have been arisen in the last few years. However, the new urban areas only provide accommodations, where local residents can live, not schools, where they can study.
K related that he could hardly find a school for his small daughter. The nearest school is the Dai Kim primary school, one kilometre away from his home. K does not want his daughter, however, to study at the very small school. Finally, he decided to bring his daughter to the Kim Giang school, two kilometres away from his home, though the school is not located on the way to the his and his wife’s offices. Like K, local residents in other new urban areas have started the process of seeking schools for their children, though the next new school year will only begin in September 2009. As it is very difficult to be enrolled into state owned schools in other districts, which are not in the localities where they live, a lot of people have to bring their children to privately-run schools which always ask for high tuition costs. In Trung Hoa – Nhan Chinh new urban area, there are enough nursery schools, kindergartens, primary, secondary, and high schools, but they are all privately-run and the tuitions prove to be unaffordable for many families. T, an employee of a central agency, has two daughters, the oldest being five years old and now goes to the Ly Thai To Kindergarten, while the younger daughter, three years old, stays at home. T said that she really wants to bring her younger daughter to kindergarten, but she still needs to consider many things. She can earn VND 2.3 million a month, which is just enough for the expenses for her oldest daughter. Her husband’s income proves to be higher, but just enough for cooking. T complains that she will have to bring her oldest daughter to the privately-run primary school next year, as there is no state-owned school nearby. Dang Van Truong, Head of the Hoang Mai district’s Education and Training Sub-department, said that there are no state-owned schools in the new urban areas in the district. Truong said that there the land is plentiful, but there yet has been any schools built. “We have many times asked the city’s authorities to allow the building of schools, but we have not received any replies,” Truong said. Bui Thi Van Anh, Head of the Cau Giay district’s Education and Training Sub-department, also complained that the sub-department’s proposal on new schools has not been approved.
