What Resolution 71 means for Vietnam's bilingual and private schools
The PIE News, 10 August 2026
Resolution 71 is now a funded programme with budgets and timelines, not a statement of intent. Free public schooling and a large push on English teaching remove two of the arguments private and bilingual schools have relied on. Domestic bilingual schools feel it first. Premium international schools have more room, but will need to show what they offer that the state system cannot.
