Proposal to establish a commune-level education advisory council

Localities consider and establish commune-level education advisory councils and key staff management groups to support the implementation of educational activities.

The above content is included in the document sent by the Ministry of Education and Training to the People's Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities regarding the resolution of some difficulties and problems of localities in the field of education when implementing two-level government.

The Ministry of Education and Training requests that the provincial People's Committees consider and reasonably allocate civil servant staff at the provincial and communal levels to ensure sufficient quantity, quality, and the right people for the right jobs.

Localities have appropriate solutions to mobilize civil servants who previously worked at the Department of Education and Training or receive and second educational managers and teachers at all levels with appropriate expertise and experience to arrange them to be in charge of education and training at the commune level if qualified.

At the same time, localities are encouraged to establish commune-level education advisory councils and groups of core management staff to support and advise on the implementation of educational activities.

Participants are education managers, teachers who are working or retired. The specific method of operation is proactively guided by the locality according to actual conditions and ensures that there are no arising issues in the unit or administrative organization, only the professional departments operate concurrently for a certain period of time.

In addition, the Ministry of Education and Training also requested the Provincial People's Committee to consider and assign the Department of Education and Training to preside over and coordinate with relevant departments and branches to proactively grasp difficulties and problems in the field of education and training when implementing two-level government, promptly have solutions to remove them or report to competent authorities to remove them; organize training and fostering for the team of commune-level civil servants in charge of the education sector.

The proposal of the Ministry of Education and Training was made in the context that only about 20-30% of commune-level education officials have expertise or experience working in this field. There are even cases where they have professional qualifications in unrelated fields such as Bachelor of Land Management or Animal Husbandry Engineering.

According to the Department of Teachers and Educational Managers, Ministry of Education and Training, a quick survey of about 1,000 civil servants who were assigned to work at the Department of Culture and Society at the commune level, assigned to be in charge of the education sector, found that 303 people had worked at the Department of Education and Training (old); 395 people had professional qualifications trained in pedagogy and education, the rest were in other sectors and fields. Many people had never worked in education.
