Now, PHHS just need to press a phone call, even without having to call, is informed by the school. What a time of digitalization, PHHS is served and every time .

Remote management.

There was a son who prepared to cross the martial arts school, Ms. Tam (the house on Tran Van Dang Street, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City) couldn't help worrying. Right after the Lunar New Year, she called to Tuoi Tre newspaper to be consulted to choose a school and choose a branch for her child. The questions of this mother seem endless . until she feels shy when she is about to pick up the phone. But not asking is not safe.

She said: " When I saw the call center 19001733 for enrollment counseling, I tried it and felt light. People, what school, what training, how to go to school . all have enough. A direct consultant is harder to say than that . "

Launching the peak of this year's university admissions application, the university admission advisory information channel " What to learn ? Where to go to school ?" significantly relieved the contestants' concerns and questions before the university and college enrollment season, so every day 19001733 received 3,000 - 4,000 consulting calls.

However, acumen in the field of "education information via phone" must include Ho Chi Minh City Post Office. In 2001, the 1086 switchboard was established by the City Post Office with the idea of ​​announcing students 'daily learning, conduct, grades, school notices, and even the homeroom teachers' remarks.

At the peak of the years 2003-2004, up to 50-60 secondary schools and high schools participated, showing that this information channel was quite supported by PHHS, especially PH in semi-public schools and classes. After going to school for a few hours, from the agency, PHHS called in 1086 service, it was safe to know that his son was still a good student in the classroom or was lurking outside.

Meanwhile, with the advantage of managing units, managing all Ho Chi Minh City's students by fixed codes throughout the school level, owning the Information Center and educational program, Department of Education and Training is expected between This April will include a "school SMS" service. The method of providing information to PHHS is also more attractive.

The school will provide information on attendance, grades (from one test or more), year-end grading results, student conduct and graduation test scores, enrollment . according to the central code. This design.

The General Center processes raw data and switches to the server system associated with MobiFone, Vinaphone, Viettel telephone networks. Parents have a need to register for the service, if there is information related to their children (that day, students are absent with or without permission, monthly and semester grades .), PHHS will receive via text message mobile phone.

Full service point report

If the information on attendance, monthly study of students must be done meticulously and not all students want to participate, the service will see the results of graduation exams, enrolling students at universities, colleges and specialized high schools. career . although simple but "expensive" because of its practicality and efficiency. There is a supply.

In the past, the field of educational information on phones only had exclusive post offices (even the Post Office also provided results of occupational examinations, foreign language tests, informatics, class 6 admission .) then this market share is pretty much. Last year, in addition to the post office, there was also Vietnam Television and Tuoi Tre newspaper with switchboard 19001733, messaging system 9 .; 9 .

Not to mention a series of electronic newspapers to the season also bustling hot information exam results for readers. This year, according to Le Thanh Liem, head of the Ho Chi Minh City Post and Telecommunications Service Center, there are three limited companies that hire the switchboard of the Center to exploit services to report points.

It can be seen that more and more units participating in educational information services, PHHS more and more information channels to support their children's learning. The phenomenon of crowding out points in schools also decreased significantly thanks to the scoring service.

However, the widespread participation of private companies without information check also affected the PHHS if the information was not accurate. Mr. Le Thanh Liem said: " Although it has been done for a long time, we still have the wrong cases. Once the school gave information to the students" dropped ", then corrected" parked ". but PHHS still called to scold and sue because of her intention to commit suicide, although we are not at fault, we still have to take responsibility, we have to pay the call fee, buy gifts for staff I apologize, that the Assistant Father is new. We are a big unit so we have to keep our voices, can small private companies take responsibility for errors? "
