Despite being situated in remote and underprivileged areas, schools like Tan Dan Kindergarten in Tan Thanh commune, Mai Chau district, have reaped the benefits of digital transformation tools and applications, thanks to support from the education and training sector.

Principal Ha Thi My highlighted that in recent years, the school has received substantial support from the education sector and related organisations. This includes investments in programmes integrating information technology and digital transformation into educational activities. One standout initiative was the provision of 25 smart devices, enabling the use of the "Language Programming" app for preschoolers. This innovative approach has successfully nurtured creativity and critical thinking among them.

Additionally, the school’s staff and teachers have embraced advanced IT systems for management and professional tasks, leading to noticeable improvements in administrative efficiency and teaching quality.

Yen Hoa Primary and Secondary School, also located in a disadvantaged area, has consistently excelled in fulfilling its educational mission. Principal Tran Tuan Vang noted that for the 2024–2025 academic year, all teachers at the school hold associate’s degree or higher credentials, with over 30% possessing bachelor’s degrees and demonstrating strong professional expertise. This solid foundation has paved the way for the integration of IT and digital transformation in management and teaching. Supported by modern equipment, the school has shifted from traditional teaching methods to active learning approaches, allowing both teachers and students to cultivate critical thinking, creativity, and proactivity. These advancements contribute to the all-round development of students.

In collaboration with IT service providers, the DoET has established the Hoa Binh education database and a smart education ecosystem, which are fully updated and interconnected with the national education database. Currently, data for 98.4% of students, school staffs, and teachers in the province has been integrated with the national population database.

The education sector has also introduced the eNetViet app to connect families and schools, digitised school records, and implemented digital libraries. These initiatives are part of the smart education ecosystem, significantly reducing administrative workloads for schools and teachers. Additionally, university and college admissions for 2023 and 2024 were conducted entirely online through the public service portal.

The DoET has piloted electronic student records for primary school students, achieving a 99.34% completion rate for records of first to fourth-grade students. Remaining records are being reviewed and updated.

As part of the province’s plan under the "Cashless Payment Development Scheme for 2020–2025," the DoET collaborated with MISA JSC and commercial banks to establish a cashless payment platform for tuition fees and other expenses. By December 8, 2024, nearly 83.7 billion VND (approximately 3.3 million USD) in fees had been processed through this system.

Minh emphasised that digital transformation efforts have significantly enhanced teaching quality while saving time in educational and administrative processes. The transition from traditional methods to technology-driven approaches has empowered educators and students alike to think critically, innovate, and actively engage in the learning process. These initiatives have bolstered efficiency and effectiveness across the education sector.
