Vietnam aims to achieve universal preschool education for children aged 3 to 5 by 2030, according to a newly issued government decree, local daily Nhan Dan reported Thursday.

The decree calls for strengthened investment from both central and local budgets in educational infrastructure, while encouraging the mobilization of social resources to develop preschool facilities.

By 2030, all classrooms are expected to be permanent structures, fully equipped with functional rooms, libraries, indoor and outdoor play areas, teaching materials, kitchens, restrooms and clean water systems, the report said.

According to the government news, starting from September this year, tuition fees have been waived for children in Vietnam attending public preschools, while those enrolled in private institutions receive partial tuition support.
