On the morning of July 17, the Ministry of Education and Training coordinated with UNESCO to organize a workshop to provide professional consultation on some contents guiding the implementation of the Law on Teachers, policies for teachers, educational leaders and school personnel in the new context. Deputy Minister of Education and Training Pham Ngoc Thuong attended the workshop.
5 highlights
In the report, Mr. Vu Minh Duc - Director of the Department of Teachers andEducational Managers (Ministry of Education and Training) said that on June 16, at the 9th session, the 15th National Assembly passed the Law on Teachers with 9 chapters and 42 articles. This is an important milestone, of great significance not only for the entire teaching staff, the education sector but also for the entire Vietnamese nation.
For the first time in history, the National Assembly has issued a separate law fully regulating the position, role, rights, obligations, regimes and policies for teachers; concretizing the major policy of the Party and State in honoring, caring for, protecting and developing teachers - the key force in the education cause.
Mr. Vu Minh Duc emphasized 5 notable highlights in the provisions of the Law on Teachers. Specifically: First, affirming the position, protecting the honor and reputation of the teaching profession.
Second, teachers' salaries are ranked highest in the administrative career salary scale system. Third, some policies on better treatment, support, and attraction for teachers
Fourth, standardize and develop the team - improve the quality of education. Fifth, increase autonomy for educational institutions and give initiative to the education sector.
Will submit to the Government for promulgation of 3 Decrees and issue under authority 12 Circulars
To ensure the effective implementation of the Law on Teachers from January 1, 2026, Mr. Vu Minh Duc said, the Ministry of Education and Training must advise and submit to the Government for promulgation of 3 Decrees and issue 12 Circulars under its authority.
Of which, 3 Decrees include: Decree detailing a number of articles of the Law on Teachers; Decree stipulating salary policy, allowance regime, support and attraction policies for teachers; Decree stipulating preferential allowance regime according to profession for civil servants in the Education sector.
12 Circulars regulating professional standards, working regimes, recruitment authority, equivalent titles, and codes of conduct for teachers.
In addition, the Ministry of National Defense and the Ministry of Public Security must also research and develop Circulars regulating working regimes and professional standards for teachers under their management authority.
According to the Director of the Department of Teachers and Educational Managers, completing the above number of documents within 6 months with limited resources in terms of personnel is one of the major difficulties and challenges for the Ministry of Education and Training.
At the same time, the implementation of the policy of building a two-level local government, along with changes in the current legal system related to the organization of local government, management of civil servants... greatly affects regulations on recruitment, use and management of teachers, requiring the construction process to be continuously updated, ensuring consistency with changes in the relevant legal system.
“Faced with new requirements on breakthrough policies for science, technology development, innovation and digital transformation; orientations on educational and training breakthroughs in the coming time... require the content of regulations in documents guiding the implementation of the Law on Teachers to be revolutionary, outstanding, and ahead of the development trends of the times in the new era” – Mr. Vu Minh Duc emphasized.
Along with that, at present, the Ministry of Education and Training is simultaneously implementing amendments and supplements to 3 Laws at the same time: Law on Education, Law on Higher Education and Law on Vocational Education.
In the above 3 Laws, issues regarding all educational personnel in schools, including teachers, educational institution managers, educational management staff, and employees, are concerned, amended and supplemented to ensure compliance and consistency with the Law on Teachers, while meeting new requirements.
To ensure the progress and quality of documents guiding the implementation of the Law on Teachers as well as continuing to improve the contents on teachers and school personnel in the Laws being amended and supplemented, Mr. Vu Minh Duc said: within the framework of activities summarizing the process of building the Law on Teachers, the Ministry of Education and Training coordinated with the UNESCO Vietnam Office to organize a "Professional consultation workshop on some contents guiding the implementation of the Law on Teachers, policies for teachers, educational leaders and school personnel in the new context".
In addition to the sharing and analysis of experts, at the Workshop, the Ministry of Education and Training also provided some major orientations on policy content in the draft documents guiding the implementation of the Law on Teachers.
Thereby, delegates can give their opinions and provide local practices and educational institutions, if any, which are important documents to help the Ministry complete practical and appropriate guidance content.
The Ministry of Education and Training wishes to listen to the opinions and direct discussions of delegates and experts on the contents related to teacher policies and the completion of documents guiding the implementation of the Law on Teachers as mentioned above.
