CBSE Class 10 Answered

Despite the French government promoting an agenda of modern French education in Vietnam, only a fraction of the native population was actually able to enroll in schools. Still fewer actually succeeded in passing the school leaving examination. This was largely because of a deliberate policy of failing students, particularly in the final year, so that they could not qualify for better paid jobs. Usually, as many as two-thirds of the students failed due to this policy. In the year 1925 alone, in a population of 17 million, as few as 400 passed the school leaving examinations.
