Nearly 400 pupils and students had internships and were recruited by businesses; many were given the opportunity to attend “talent” classes sponsored by enterprises.
During the 2023–2025 school years, schools in Hai Phong organized nearly 3,000 online English lessons for students in highland areas (Tram Tau, Mu Cang Chai and Nghia Lo), providing support in teachers and equipment such as televisions, computers, cameras, uniforms and books.
