Even after class hours are over, teachers are not yet allowed to

Mai Anh, a first-grade teacher in Ho Chi Minh City, arrives at school at 6:30 AM but continues to answer parent messages until 9 PM. Dinner is interrupted by discussions about seating arrangements, lost supplies, and student issues.

In her statement published on the morning of October 19th, she also recounted having to prepare both electronic and paper documents; study materials were also transferred through multiple channels. Therefore, her workday didn't end with the school bell ringing.
