Introduction

Vietnam has emerged as a key player in the global education landscape, witnessing a significant rise in international schools and a growing emphasis on internationalisation. This shift is driven by increasing demand from expatriate families, affluent Vietnamese households, and the government’s proactive approach to educational reforms. As a leader in premium admissions counselling and institutional services, Globestar Edutech has been at the forefront of supporting students and institutions in navigating this dynamic transformation.

The Rise of International Schools in Vietnam

Over the past decade, Vietnam has seen a rapid expansion in the number of international schools,
particularly in major cities like Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. Several factors contribute to this growth:

Rising Middle-Class Aspirations

An increasing number of Vietnamese families are seeking high-quality education with international curricula, such as IB, Cambridge IGCSE, and American AP programs, to prepare their children for global opportunities.

Expanding Expatriate Community

With Vietnam’s booming economy attracting foreign investment, the demand for international schooling options has surged.

Government Reforms

Policies encouraging foreign investment in education and greater autonomy for private schools have facilitated the expansion of international institutions.

Strategic Partnerships

Collaborations between Vietnamese institutions and international education providers have led to the establishment of joint programs and global academic networks.

Highlights the growing enthusiasm among Vietnamese students to master the English language:

"There has been a significant increase in interest among students to learn English fluently as their second language. Many now recognize that strong English proficiency opens doors to international education and career opportunities."

Internationalisation of Education in Vietnam

Internationalisation extends beyond the rise of international schools—it also encompasses curriculum development, student mobility, and institutional collaborations. Key trends include:

Global Curricula Integration

More Vietnamese schools are integrating internationally recognized programs, fostering global perspectives among students.
Bilingual and Multilingual Education

English proficiency and multilingual capabilities are increasingly prioritized to enhance students’ competitiveness in global academia and employment markets.

University Pathways and Transnational Education

International partnerships enable students to pursue higher education abroad, with dual-degree programs and articulation agreements becoming more common.
Technological Advancements in Education

Digital learning tools, hybrid education models, and AI-driven personalized learning are shaping the future of international education in Vietnam.

Observes the increasing number of Vietnamese students choosing to study abroad:

“We are seeing more Vietnamese students exploring opportunities at top universities worldwide. This not only enriches their academic and professional experiences but also brings diversity of thought and culture to the work they plan to do when they return to Vietnam.”
