Abstract

    The educational system of the Tran Dynasty focused on changes in examinations and educational content, the increasing development and dominance of Confucian
education, the training of a team of educated Confucian intellectuals who worked for the state management apparatus and the development of Nom script. Through education and examinations, the state selected a team of talented mandarins to serve the country. The Tran court respected talented people regardless of their background, showing a special characteristic of a dynasty that achieved many achievements in many fields, including education. However, due to a lack of documentation, the content of early education limited the clarification of this issue. In 1396, the examination consisted of four rounds.
