Preschool teacher salary table after 45-80% increase in allowance, highest 21 million VND - Lang Son Newspaper and Radio and Television Station

The Ministry of Education and Training is seeking comments on a draft Decree regulating preferential allowances for civil servants and employees working in public educational institutions. In particular, preferential allowances for preschool teachers are expected to increase from 35% to 45-80%.

Specifically, the 45% allowance applies to civil servants and employees working inteaching in preschools.

The 60% allowance applies to civil servants and employees working as teachers in kindergartens in communes in regions I and II of ethnic minority and mountainous areas; island communes, border communes, and safe zone communes according to Government regulations.

The 80% allowance applies to civil servants and employees working as teachers in preschools in areas with particularly difficult socio-economic conditions according to Government regulations.

It is expected that when receiving a 45% preferential allowance, preschool teachers' salaries will be calculated as follows:

Salary of kindergarten teacher grade II.

Salary of kindergarten teacher grade III.

According to the Ministry of Education and Training, preschool teachers must care for and educate children from 3 months to 6 years old, requiring high concentration to ensure safety and attract children's attention, often working 9-10 hours/day. Meanwhile, total income is not commensurate with the characteristics and complexity of the job.

Currently, preschool teachers have the lowest income compared to other levels of education. With a starting salary coefficient of 2.1 and a 35% allowance, the total income of a new teacher is about 6.63 million VND/month. This is the main reason why the rate of resignation at this level is high. From August 2023 to April 2024, more than 1,600 preschool teachers quit their jobs.

The Ministry of Education and Training hopes that when the new Decree is passed, localities will be able to implement the policy in a synchronous manner, contributing to improving the quality of education and retaining human resources.
