Checking question 11:

If question 11 has code "1" and respondent's grade is 5 and higher or has code from "2" or "3" or "4", interviewers skip question 12 and ask question 13. In case that grade at general school is less than 5, interviewers ask question 12.


Question 12. Is (name) currently able to read and write?

This question is only answered by persons who has code "3" in question 10, and persons who has code "1" in question 11 and grade at general school is less than 5.

A person is able to read and write if that person is able to read, write, and fully understand a simple sentence in Vietnamese, other ethnic minority's language, or foreign language.

Persons who can only read and write numbers and their names, or who are just able to read but not able to write, or who are only able to write a sentence learned by heart are not considered as being able to read and write. Persons who are not able to read and write can also include those who are not able to read and write even if they were attending school in the past (re-illiterate).
