Abstract

This article studies the necessity and feasibility of measures to raise the awareness of teachers about the criteria for establishing schools of well-being in the context of educational innovation in Vietnam. These measures are proposed based on research findings regarding the current level of teachers' awareness of the criteria for establishing schools of well-being. The research data shows that all six measures are evaluated on the necessary and feasible scale. This proves that the measures are necessary and can be implemented under the conditions of current schools, although appropriate adjustments can be made at each different educational institution.
