Regarding the orientations and tasks for the 2024-2025 academic year, he asked the education-training sector to continue to creatively and effectively implement resolutions of the Party Congresses at all levels, especially Conclusion No. 91-KL/TW issued on August 12, 2024 by the Politburo on continuing to implement Resolution No. 29-NQ/TW of the 11th Party Central Committee on fundamental and comprehensive reform of education and training, meeting the requirements of industrialisation and modernisation in the conditions of a socialist-oriented market economy and international integration; and Resolution No. 19-NQ/TU, dated June 29, 2023, of the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board on strengthening resources for education and training development, meeting the requirements of innovation in Hoa Binh province in the 2023-2030 period.
