Replication Data for: Vietnamese students’ expectation and perception on educational quality

“Quality education” is of great importance for any country globally, and it is also the fourth United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG4) until 2030. Nevertheless, the ambiguous definitions, the infeasibility to measure, and the variant national contexts of education quality make it troublesome to create a shared education quality measurement framework. This dataset has its foundation in the EdQUAL framework, with 2239 responses collected from March to June 2020, covering a range of Vietnamese lower-secondary students. In this dataset, we focused on (i) Demographics of the partakers; (ii) Expectations of students on various dimensions of overall education quality; and (iii) Perceptions of students on multiple dimensions of overall education quality.优质教育（Quality education）对全球各国均具有至关重要的意义，同时亦是联合国可持续发展目标4（SDG4）中截至2030年的核心目标。然而，教育质量存在定义模糊、量化衡量可行性不足，且各国教育国情存在差异等问题，这使得构建通用统一的教育质量衡量框架困难重重。本数据集以EdQUAL框架（EdQUAL framework）为基础，于2020年3月至6月间收集了2239份有效问卷回复，调研覆盖越南多所初中阶段的学生。本数据集聚焦三大核心维度：(i) 受访者的人口统计学特征；(ii) 学生对整体教育质量各维度的预期；(iii) 学生对整体教育质量各维度的感知情况。
