Education system of Vietnam in the past
Because of 1,000 years under the control of China, there were no records which indicated a
formal education system in Vietnam. In 939, Emperor Ngo Quyen expelled the Chinese invaders
and declared Vietnamese independence. But the first two dynasties, Ngo and Dinh, did not last so
long, and were busy with the national defense, so the education was just in pagodas. Ly Cong Uan,
the founder king of the Lydynasty had been educated in a pagoda.
To the Ly dynasty, the fundamental educational system was officially improved. King Ly Thanh
Tong established the Temple of Literature at the ancient Capital of Thang Long to encourage
people to appreciate the education. In 1075, the first exam was done by the order of King Ly Nhan
Tong to select scholars for office and the later year, 1076, the Imperial Academy, the first
university in Vietnam’s history, was set up for the education of sons of royalty and other high –
ranking officials.
There were also many private classes taught by prominent scholars such as Chu Van An, Le Quy
Don, Nguyen Binh Khiem, Phung Khac Khoan, Vo Truong Toan... The students would only study
literature and ancient history of China, of Viet Nam for entirety of their schooling. Later on, the
Public Administration curriculum was finally added to the program. When the Ho Royal family
ruled the country, students were taught simple mathematics.
From 1918 to 1945, Vietnam’s education programme has adopted the western educational
system with three levels: elementary, high school, and college. At all levels, from 1945 the
Vietnamese National language is officially used. Students have the opportunity to learn literature,
history, philosophy, law, science, math, medicine and as well as other languages.
