Currently, the Ministry of Education and Training is advising the Government to draft this Decree.

According to the draft, the basic salary (not including the special coefficient that the Ministry of Education and Training is consulting the Government) of teachers will reach the highest level of 17,667 million VND/month if they are classified as primary/middle school/high school teachers.

Previously, Minister of Education and Training Nguyen Kim Son said that the Ministry is also finalizing a draft of detailed regulations on salaries, allowances and policies to attract and support teachers. Accordingly, it is expected that the basic salary of all teachers will increase, by at least about 2 million VND, and at most up to 5-7 million VND/person/month. This increase is only calculated on the basic salary, not including other allowances.

In addition, the Ministry is also developing a Decree detailing a number of articles of the Law on Teachers, including regulations on the content and form of teacher recruitment.

As planned, the recruitment will consist of 2 rounds of exams, in line with current regulations on civil servant recruitment. However, the second round of professional and technical exams will be designed differently, closely following the actual process of teaching and educational activities, ensuring the correct assessment of the pedagogical capacity and professional skills of candidates at each level of education and training.
