Teachers enjoy special benefits and outstanding incentives from Resolution 71-NQ/TW

GD&TĐ - Resolution 71-NQ/TW is expected to create strong changes with special and outstanding preferential policies for teachers.

Special and outstanding policy

With the issuance of Resolution No. 71-NQ/TW on breakthrough development in education and training, the Politburo has shown deep concern for the teaching staff, the force that plays a central role in fundamental and comprehensive innovation of national education.

A notable highlight, expected to create a strong change, is the special and outstanding preferential policy for teachers.

Resolution 71-NQ/TW clearly states that it is necessary to increase the preferential allowance for preschool and general education institutions to at least 70% for teachers, at least 30% for staff, and 100% for teachers in extremely difficult areas, border areas, islands, and ethnic minority areas.

In the early days of preparation for the new school year 2025-2026, information about Resolution No. 71 spread quickly, bringing joy to teachers who are staying at schools and villages in mountainous areas where difficulties are still piling up.

Ms. Hua Thi Nhung and her students.

Ms. Hua Thi Nhung, a teacher at Ban Lu school, Tan Son Primary and Secondary School (Tan Ky commune, Thai Nguyen province) shared emotionally: "We really feel warm. This resolution is a clear demonstration of the Party and State's attention to teachers in remote areas. The improved preferential policies will help teachers feel secure in their work, stabilize their lives and continue to stick with the profession for a long time."

Since 2013, Ms. Nhung has been attached to the school located on the top of Ang Toong Pass. 100% of the students here are Dao ethnic children, many of whom have to climb uphill and cross forests to get to class every day. However, the teachers are still dedicated to their classes and school as if it were a mission that cannot be stopped.

Retaining talented people – a prerequisite for improving education quality

Not only supporting teachers, Resolution 71-NQ/TW also sets out directions for expanding and attracting talents to the education sector. Specifically, there will be policies and mechanisms to mobilize talented people outside of the teaching force to participate in teaching, implement a system of co-staff lecturers at educational institutions and encourage experts to preside over scientific research in schools.

These mechanisms are expected to contribute to narrowing the education gap between advantaged and disadvantaged areas.

At Yen Lo Primary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities (Thien Hoa Commune, Lang Son Province), Mr. Lam Van Van, Vice Principal of the school shared: “The school currently has 27 staff and teachers, but life is still difficult. This policy of increasing allowances is really a great source of motivation. Not only does it retain teachers who are working, but it also opens up opportunities to attract more young teachers with professional qualifications to the school.”

The way to school of teachers and students of Khuoi Chang school, Yen Lo Primary School in the rainy season.

With 100% of the students being Nung ethnic people, in the 2025-2026 school year, Yen Lo Primary Boarding School has 1 main campus and 1 Khuoi Chang satellite campus, about 8km apart. The journey of "sowing letters" for teachers here has never been easy, especially during the rainy season when traffic is disrupted.

It can be seen that the issuance of superior preferential policies as in Resolution 71 is an important step to ensure fairness in policy access and career development.

If fully implemented, the policy will help overcome the shortage of teachers in disadvantaged areas, while gradually narrowing the gap in education quality between regions.

In the long term, this is also the premise for forming a team of highly qualified, dedicated teachers capable of undertaking the mission of fundamentally and comprehensively innovating the country's education system.

Teacher Hua Thi Nhung affirmed: “When our lives are secure, we will devote ourselves wholeheartedly to our students. Despite the hardships, as long as we are recognized, we will not hesitate to continue to ‘roll our shoulders’ in this profession.”

Thus, Resolution 71-NQ/TW is not only an affirmation of the key role of education in national development, but also a clear demonstration of the real concern for the teaching staff. Special preferential policies will be the "push" to create a turning point in the innovation journey, bringing Vietnamese education to develop quickly, sustainably and substantially.
