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.
