Provincial People’s Committee, Japanese company discuss cooperation in education development

At the meeting, Vice Chairwoman of the Provincial People's Committee Ha Lan Anh provided an overview of Ninh Binh's socio-economic development, highlighting the province's consistent focus on education and training alongside economic growth.

She emphasised that education and training are a key priority, playing a decisive role in developing human resources, improving growth quality and enhancing the province's competitiveness.

Ninh Binh ranked first nationwide in terms of average scores in the 2026 high school graduation examination. At the 2025-2026 National Excellent Student Competition, the province won 238 prizes, ranking second nationwide. It also secured a gold medal at the 56th International Physics Olympiad, the official stressed.

To further improve the quality of education and training, Ninh Binh is focusing on enhancing the professional capacity of teachers and education administrators, strengthening foreign language and IT teaching, developing digital skills, and promoting the appropriate application of AI in teaching, learning and educational management, she noted.

To advance these goals, the province seeks to expand exchanges of experience and cooperation in education and training, creating more opportunities for teachers and students to access advanced educational methods, quality learning materials and supporting tools, the Vice Chairwoman added.

At the meeting, representatives of SPRIX Vietnam introduced the company's establishment, development, operational capacity and educational programmes currently being implemented in Vietnam and several other countries.

Founded in 1997, Japan's SPRIX Inc. specialises in mathematics and programming education, as well as the development of digital learning solutions powered by AI. Its educational programmes have been introduced in more than 50 countries, with over 15 million students participating in TOFAS assessments.

In Vietnam, the group plans to introduce two key products: TOFAS, a free assessment of students' mathematics and programming skills, and SPRIX Learning, an AI-powered online learning platform that supports personalised learning pathways.

Under the company's proposal, TOFAS assessments would be offered free of charge at educational institutions across the province that wish to participate. In addition, SPRIX Vietnam proposed cooperation with Ninh Binh in developing education in mathematics, programming, information technology and AI.

Speaking at the meeting, Vice Chairwoman of the Provincial People’s Committee Ha Lan Anh expressed her hope that the company would share information and experience in mathematics teaching, developing programming thinking and strengthening digital competencies among teachers and students, while supporting the effective application of AI in teaching and educational management.

She assigned the provincial Department of Education and Training to act as the focal agency, working with the Department of Foreign Affairs, the Department of Science and Technology and relevant agencies to study SPRIX Vietnam's proposal, review the necessary conditions, and assess its suitability, effectiveness and feasibility./.
