MPS establish Public Security Inter-Level Boarding School 3 in Can Tho city

In implementing Plan No. 22 of the Public Security Central Party Committee, which focuses on integrating public security efforts with social welfare and supporting vulnerable groups to drive national development for the 2026–2030 period, the Ministry of Public Security reviewed its existing infrastructure and designated the former headquarters of the Soc Trang Provincial Police Department in Can Tho city as the site for a new school. 

The school is designed as a multi-level, boarding educational facility dedicated to underprivileged and vulnerable children, as well as those from ethnic minority communities in the Mekong Delta.

In just over two months, the former police station has been completely transformed into a modern educational complex. The facility now features 33 classrooms, an administrative block, a library, specialized functional rooms, and 74 dormitory rooms to meet students' residential needs, alongside a synchronized infrastructure system fully prepared for the upcoming academic year.

At the ceremony, the Organizing Committee announced the official decisions issued by the Minister of Public Security and the People's Committee of Can Tho city regarding the school's establishment and operation.

Addressing the event, Deputy Minister Pham The Tung directed public security agencies and local police units to pool their resources to develop Public Security Inter-level Boarding Schools into exemplary, comprehensive and sustainable educational models. He emphasized that these institutions should effectively combine academic training with security, safety and social welfare, while keeping underprivileged students, children from policy-beneficiary families, and ethnic minority communities at the heart of their long-term development strategies.

The Deputy Minister also requested the Can Tho City Police Department to promptly finalize the organizational structure, facility adjustments and other necessary preparations to welcome approximately 1,000 students for the 2026–2027 academic year. He stressed that the admissions process must be transparent, public and strictly aligned with legal regulations and instructions from the Ministry of Public Security.

During the ceremony, the delegates performed a traditional inaugural brushstroke ritual, marking an official milestone as the Public Security Inter-level Boarding School No. 3 embarks on its journey of growth, opening up new learning and development opportunities for generations of disadvantaged students in the Southwestern region.

On this occasion, Deputy Minister Pham The Tung also presented the school with a fully equipped STEM classroom.
