In Vietnam, how many times are parent-teacher conferences held in a school year?

According to the regulations in Clause 1, Article 9 of the Charter of the parent committee issued with Circular 55/2011/TT-BGDDT, parent-teacher conferences are regulated as follows:

Activities of parents and parent committees

1. General meetings of parents:

At the beginning of the school year, the homeroom teacher must conduct the parent-teacher conference to establish the class parent committee with the number of the committee prescribed in Point a, Clause 1, Article 3 of this Charter. Parent-teacher conferences must be held at the beginning of the school year, upon the end of the first semester, the end of the school year and when requested by at least 50% of the parents in the class.

Additionally, an extraordinary parent-teacher conference can be organized if at least 50% of the class parents request.
