Established in 1949, the school is one of the key institutions for training talents for Mongolia. To mark the 90th birthday of President Ho Chi Minh in 1980, Mongolia decided to name the school after him.
In 2009, the monument in tribute of President Ho Chi Minh was built on the school's campus. In 2017, the Ho Chi Minh Traditional Hall was inaugurated. The school has established a Vietnamese language club, attracting many students.
