Abstract
Vietnamese is the official language of over 92 million people in Vietnam and nearly four million diaspora including in Australia, USA, and Canada.<br/>To date, there are no standardised speech assessments for Vietnamese children. This paper outlines the development of the Vietnamese Speech Assessment through collaboration between researchers in Vietnam and Australia. The word list contains all Vietnamese consonants, vowels and tones in at least two words with different sequence constraints. Further, the word list was developed to be within the vocabulary range of young children, frequently used by Vietnamese people in different regions, picturable, and either a noun or verb. Picture stimuli were identified and the test was piloted with Vietnamese speakers of different ages who spoke different dialects. A score sheet was designed to include acceptable dialectal pronunciations, and to enable calculation of percentage of consonants/ vowels/ semivowels/ tones correct and presence of phonological processes. The Vietnamese Speech Assessment is currently undergoing norming and standardisation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
