Title: Can an 11th Grade Student Be Admitted to the Party?

According to the provisions in Article 37 of the Regulations issued along with Circular 12/2011/TT/BGDDT:

The age of students entering grade 6 is 11 years old. The age of students entering grade 10 is 15 years old.

For students who skip grades at the previous educational level or students entering the educational level at an age higher than the prescribed age, the age for entering grade 6 and grade 10 is reduced or increased based on the age of graduation from the previous educational level.

=> Thus, according to the above provisions, the age of grade 11 students is from 16-17 years old for those who follow the prescribed age.

And according to Regulation 29-QD/TW in 2016 implementing the Communist Party Charter issued by the Central Executive Committee, there are provisions on the age of admission to the party as follows:

At the time of the branch's review for admission, the person entering the Communist Party must be from 18 years old to 60 years old (calculated by months).

=> Thus, according to the above regulations, if grade 11 students are aged from 16 to 17 years old or below 17 years old, they will not be eligible for party admission. In the case where grade 11 students are already 18 years old (216 months), they will meet the age requirement for party admission.
