On March 21, the FPT Schools system held its annual nationwide technology event, FSchools Open STEM Day 2026, at FPT High School in Ha Noi.
The highlight of this year’s event was the national final round of the FAnRoC competition — a nationwide playground focused on artificial intelligence applications and robotics competitions. The contest enabled students to push their limits through challenging tasks under the theme “Digital creativity, green innovation.”
More than 4,000 students and teachers experienced a modern educational technology ecosystem. The activity is part of FPT’s strategy to build a high-quality workforce, strengthen national technological self-reliance, and contribute to implementing the spirit of Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW.
Launched in November 2025 across 17 venues within the FPT Schools system, FAnRoC attracted more than 1,700 teams with nearly 6,000 students from over 1,000 schools nationwide. Following preliminary rounds, nearly 100 top teams in both categories advanced to compete in the national finals.
In addition to FAnRoC, which is open to students nationwide, Open STEM Day also elevated annual technology activities exclusively for FPT Schools students, teachers, and staff, including STEMPetition and AI Educamp.
Dr Nguyen Xuan Phong, Director of FPT Schools, said: “Over the past 13 years, FPT Schools has remained committed to building a creative learning environment where students can access technology and develop scientific thinking from an early stage. Education is not confined to the classroom; it is a journey of nurturing knowledge, skills, and mindset through diverse and well-oriented experiential activities.”
As part of the event, a memorandum of understanding was also signed between FPT Education and UN Women in Viet Nam to promote equal and quality learning opportunities for learners, while also empowering women to thrive in the digital era and protecting their rights and safety online.
Caroline Nyamayemombe, UN Women Representative in Viet Nam, also delivered a presentation on “STEM Education and Gender Equality in the New Era.” Her insights opened important discussions on breaking gender stereotypes and encouraging equal participation of women in science and technology.
At FPT High School in Ha Noi, guests also took part in a variety of educational technology activities across more than 20 experiential booths. Students explored interdisciplinary STEM models, tested robot operations, debated with AI, and tackled thinking challenges at skill stations with professional trainers.
