Reaching the highest teacher salary expectations

The highest teachers' salary after many years of waiting, which at one time seemed hopeless, has now been included in the Teachers' Law and almost 'immediately' the law drafting agency has built a decree to implement it instead of making teachers wait.

The leader of the Ministry of Education and Training said that the ministry is finalizing a draft decree to implement the Law on Teachers, which includes special regulations expected such as salary policies, allowances, support and attraction regimes for teachers, and will advise the Government to rearrange the salaries of some teacher positions...

The major breakthrough policies foreducation are also reflected in the major resolutions recently passed by the National Assembly, such as exempting tuition fees for preschool to high school students; universalizing preschool education from 3 to 5 years old; supporting meals for boarding students... These things are proving that education is truly a top national policy. The Party and the State pay special attention and dedicate the best to developing education.

Good news after good news has made teachers across the country feel like they have "touched" the dream of the highest teacher salary that has been awaited for so long. A teacher with nearly 20 years of experience shared: "When the Teachers Law was passed by the National Assembly , we were very happy but also determined that we would have to continue waiting for the implementation guidance documents for a period of time that could be longer than other laws. However, when we heard the leader of the Ministry of Education and Training speak like that, we understood that day would not be far away."

Teachers themselves as well as education and policy experts also believe that the establishment of a new salary scale for teachers is extremely urgent and needs to focus on increasing the starting salary and linking it to the actual capacity of teachers; restructuring all incentives for teachers. The highest ranking in terms of salary coefficient also needs to be carefully considered, eliminating overlaps in legal documents. If the highest salary is paid, there should also be a mechanism to control and evaluate output results, to know the quality of learners...

Along with the construction of a new salary scale, many opinions also believe that it is necessary to focus on reforming the teacher training system; to innovate and improve the quality of teachers. Otherwise, just because of high salaries, increased attraction to teacher training schools, increased input quality but the training quality does not have improvements to meet the needs of fundamental and comprehensive innovation in general education, it will not be able to meet the expectations of both the political system and the people.

"Systemic thinking is that if you want to be paid high salaries, you must have high values. To do that, you must be strict from recruitment, training to fostering, self-fostering and teachers must demonstrate themselves not through degrees but through professional values to learners and society," an education expert shared.

When the highest salary for teachers is about to come into effect, we cannot help but mention the great expectations of the people, that is, students will "escape" the situation of being forced to take extra classes because teachers' salaries are enough to live on, because the quality of teachers is no longer different between schools and regions.

The fact that the Ministry of Education and Training urgently drafted a decree to implement the Law on Teachers shows its quickness and responsibility in bringing legal documents into life, giving people more hope that other ministries and branches will also quickly implement policies and laws into life to realize important policies contributing to the country's development in the new era.
