Cases where teachers are not allowed to register for recruitment
The workshop announced 5 policy proposals of the Ministry of Education and Training that were unanimously approved by the Government in Resolution 95 of 2023. Notably, the proposals are directly related to the work of teachers, recruitment, use and working regime of teachers.
According to the proposed policy, regulations on recruitment, employment and working regimes are appropriate to the characteristics of activities and professional requirements for teachers. It is expected to overcome some difficulties in the current recruitment, employment and management of teachers to meet practical requirements. At the same time, decentralization to specialized agencies in the sector, field and educational institution is strengthened.
Specifically, it is expected that the recruitment of teachers must be based on job needs, professional standards for teachers, salary funds, working regimes, prescribed number of employees and the plan to build the teaching staff of the educational institution to ensure that the educational institution has enough teachers to teach in the correct training major.
To be eligible for recruitment, the following conditions must be met: Have an application form, have a clear resume, meet the requirements of the teacher's professional standards, meet the specific conditions according to job requirements but must not violate recruitment principles.
At the same time, regulations stipulate cases that are not allowed to register for recruitment such as: loss of civil act capacity or limited civil act capacity; being prosecuted for criminal liability, serving a criminal sentence or decision of the court, being subject to administrative handling measures, being sent to a compulsory drug rehabilitation facility, etc.
