Quality culture serves as a tool and method to foster quality spirit in individuals and quality culture in collectives, as well as a core tool and method to guide educational organizations in continuous quality improvement and the successful establishment of a Total Quality Management (TQM) model. The study aims to explore the relationship between quality cultural values and the quality culture environment in public secondary schools in the Southeastern region, specifically investigating the extent to which quality cultural values influence the quality culture environment. The paper surveys and evaluates the impact level of quality cultural values (11 values) on the quality culture environment (05 environments) in public secondary schools in the Southeastern region of Vietnam. Multiple linear regression analysis results indicate that quality cultural values influence the quality culture environment by 51.2% to 53.3% in Ho Chi Minh City, 40.0% to 46.8% in Binh Duong Province, and 45.8% to 50.9% in Tay Ninh Province. Four (Responsibility, Consensus, Pioneering, and Action) values are identified as core values in public secondary schools in Ho Chi Minh City, while two (Responsibility and Creativity, innovation) values are considered core values in public secondary schools in Binh Duong Province.
