Accordingly, this draft resolution states the permission to recruit people with college degrees in a number of subjects, including: history and geography, natural sciences, technology, foreign languages, information technology, arts (music, fine arts) according to the 2018 general education program at primary and secondary levels.
Previously, according to the roadmap to 2026, the Politburo assigned an additional 65,980 teacher positions in the period from 2022 to 2026, of which 27,850 public preschool and general education teacher positions were assigned in the 2022-2023 school year, and 27,860 positions were assigned in the 2023-2024 school year.
However, many localities have not recruited enough people due to many factors, including problems with qualifications, leading to a lack of recruitment sources.
The 2019 Education Law stipulates the standard training level of teachers: having a bachelor's degree in teacher training or higher for primary, secondary and high school teachers. Thus, only preschool teachers can have a college degree or higher. Also from 2019 to present, pedagogical colleges are only allowed to train in the preschool education code.
The above draft specifically states the recruitment of people with a college degree in teacher training in geography or history or a combined major, including geography or history, to teach history and geography.
In case of having a college degree in a relevant major, there must be a certificate of pedagogical training for secondary school teachers according to the program issued by the Minister of Education and Training.
In addition, the draft also mentions the recruitment of people with college degrees in teacher training in industrial engineering or agricultural engineering or in a combination of subjects, including industrial engineering or agricultural engineering, to teach technology subjects at secondary school level.
In case of having a college degree in a relevant major, there must be a certificate of pedagogical training for secondary school teachers according to regulations.
Similar to subjects such as primary school information technology and computer science, secondary school information technology; natural science; art, music, fine arts; English, the above also applies.
According to the Ministry of Education and Training, the situation of teacher surplus and shortage is common in many localities when implementing the 2018 general education program, especially in integrated subjects (history and geography, natural sciences), some specific subjects (English, information technology, music, fine arts) but is slow to be overcome due to many reasons.
If the resolution is passed with the above contents, it can resolve the problems, helping localities increase the source of teacher recruitment in the coming time.
