Ministry of Education and Training requests to stop transferring general education teachers to teach preschool

On the afternoon of March 3, the Ministry of Education and Training (MOET) sent a document to the press regarding the transfer of general education teachers to teach preschool.

Accordingly, in recent times, in some localities, there has been a situation of transferring surplus general education teachers who have only been trained for a short time to teach preschool. Faced with this situation, the Ministry has requested localities to immediately stop transferring surplus general education teachers to teach preschool without training.

The shortage of teachers in some localities is primarily due to the unreasonable recruitment of teachers by these localities. To strengthen the preschool teacher team for localities, there are many solutions, including training with 2 preschool teacher qualifications for those who have graduated from the general education teacher training program.

The Ministry of Education and Training has assigned Hanoi National University of Education to preside over and coordinate with other pedagogical schools to research and conduct thorough surveys to build scientific and practical arguments for the second-degree preschool education training program, and report to the Ministry of Education and Training before implementation.

Teacher quality is a factor that determines the quality of education. Preschool education is a special level of education, requiring preschool teachers to have specialized knowledge and skills to be able to take care of and educate preschool children in the best way.

The Ministry requires that preschool teacher training and development facilities must strictly control input quality and resolutely not enroll students who do not meet the basic requirements of preschool teachers. The training process must be organized directly in the direction of increasing practice time and strictly controlling output.

The Ministry of Education and Training will strengthen the inspection and supervision of the implementation of the preschool education diploma program to ensure that graduates can meet the requirements of caring for and educating preschool children.
