Education Ministry curtails teacher training as graduates flood marketVietNamNet Bridge - The Ministry of Education and Training (MOET) estimates that 40,264 teachers will become redundant when Vietnam applies the new general education program. The seven key pedagogical schools (the Hanoi University of Education, the Hanoi University of Education No 2, Thai Nguyen University of Education, Vinh University, Da Nang University of Education, Hue University of Education and the HCM City University of Education) received only 10,000 students. Seven regular pedagogical schools are a modest figure if noting that there are 152 universities (4-year training), junior colleges (3-year training) and intermediate schools (2-year training). Meanwhile, the other 107 schools are local multi-disciplinary schools, or 2.4 times more than specialized pedagogical schools.
