Over the past years, schools in Doc Lap commune of Hoa Binh city have been given funding to meet teaching and learning needs.
At the beginning of the year, the provincial Department of Education and Training issued a plan to implement the national target programme in the field of education and training in 2023.

The department has also promoted the role of agencies, unions, socio-political organisations, and members of the steering committee for building a learning society and universal education at all levels.
Huong revealed that in the coming time, the education and training sector will continue to step up communications and training to improve skills for officials working in the field of education and training while raising awareness among officials, teachers, staff and parents of students about the purpose, meaning and requirements of building new-style rural areas through conferences, seminars, website of the education and training sector, and other media means.
