According to the allocation, in the 2022-2023 school year, Nghe An will have 2,820 additional positions, of which preschool level is 2,164 positions, primary school level is 498 positions, middle school level is 142 positions and high school level is 16 positions.
As of May 31, 2022, the entire Nghe An Education sector has a total of 44,005 people, including 3,441 managers, 36,698 teachers and 3,866 employees. However, this is one of the provinces with the most teacher shortages in the country with over 7,800 positions, of which the most shortage is at the preschool level.
The addition of 2,820 positions has significantly contributed to reducing the pressure on staffing in the education sector for the province, especially at the preschool level. In the regular meeting this morning, the opinions of the comrades in the Provincial Party Standing Committee were highly unanimous in reserving the allocated staffing quota, including the preschool level, to prioritize recruiting qualified contract teachers into the staffing.

Regarding this content, Nghe An Provincial Party Secretary Thai Thanh Quy requested all levels and sectors to have solutions to recruit contract teachers into the payroll; in which the Department of Home Affairs needs to develop a set of recruitment criteria to ensure fairness and objectivity; especially absolutely not to let negativity happen.
Therefore, by the end of 2021, Nghe An province had 1,777 contract teachers who were no longer entitled to receive salaries as prescribed in Decree No. 06/2018, leading to a shortage of teachers, negatively affecting the psychology and lives of workers, many of whom have worked in the industry for 6-10 years.
In that situation, last July, at the 7th Session, Nghe An People's Council approved the draft Resolution on Regulations on support policies for preschool teachers who have signed labor contracts according to Decree No. 06 of the Government and Joint Circular No. 09 of the Ministry of Education and Training - Ministry of Finance - Ministry of Home Affairs, in order to create a legal basis for educational institutions to be allocated funding and have a basis to pay salaries to preschool teachers who have signed labor contracts according to the above Decrees and Circulars as of January 2022, who are teaching at public preschools under the management of Nghe An province but have not been recruited as civil servants.
