With over 800 students participating in the eight major subjects offered during the 2015–2016 academic year, NQD is one of the largest schools in Đồng Tháp province.

[3] NQD is named after the eponymous scholar and poet, Sir Nguyễn Quang Diêu.

Not only was Sir Nguyễn Quang Diêu known for his literary achievements, but he was also a famous patriot who joined the Đông Du Movement in Southern Vietnam to fight against French colonial rule.

While originally from present-day Cao Lãnh city, Sir Nguyễn Quang Diêu is known across Vietnam as a national hero.

The campus is now 1575 square meters and has three distinct areas devoted to offices, classrooms, and laboratories.

In the three-story tall main building, there are a total of twenty-seven traditional classrooms, each equipped with high-tech smart televisions, as well as eight laboratories for various science classes.

Before the long Tết holiday break, NQD holds its annual camping day tradition.

Students sleep at the school overnight and participate in a variety of games, performances, and contests.

In order to be accepted into NQD, students must take an entry examination organized by the Đồng Tháp Department of Education and Training.

There have been many competitions and tests held by these clubs to help students improve their practical skills and prepare for the Graduation Examination.

This club organizes several meetings during the school year, often around famous Vietnamese poets and writers.
