Abstract:
This article provides an overview picture of up-to-date policies relevant to the school teachers of Vietnam. The findings reveal that they are not treated equitably in terms of salary paying and working conditions, both compared with other sectors’ civil servants and required competencies as the new standards, criteria that these teaching staff should be met also, have currently been introduced by the governmental bodies. Based on the purpose of the national education and current socio-economic context, together with findings from policy shortages, the school teachers’ pay policies should be developed in two ways, which one is the current minimum wage and other competency-based incomes made by educational services they can offer, or develop a new living wage policy for these teachers in the context of Vietnam these days.
