In particular, Article 6 of the draft Circular stipulates the appointment and salary arrangement for primary school teachers. Specifically as follows:
1. Officials who are teaching at public primary schools who meet the standards of professional ethics and training and fostering qualifications prescribed in the Professional Standards of primary school teachers are appointed to the corresponding professional title according to the provisions of Clause 2, Article 2 of this Circular as follows:
a) Appointment to the professional title of primary school teacher - Code V.07.03.29 for grade III primary school teachers - Code V.07.03.29;

c) Appointment to the professional title of senior primary school teacher - Code V.07.03.27 for primary school teachers of class I - Code V.07.03.27.
2. Officials appointed to the professional titles of primary school teachers as prescribed in this Circular shall apply the corresponding salary table issued with Decree No. 204/2004/ND-CP, specifically as follows:
a) Primary school teachers - Code V.07.03.29, are subject to the salary coefficient of type A1 civil servants, from salary coefficient 2.34 to salary coefficient 4.98;

d) Primary school teachers who have not met the training standards are subject to the salary coefficient of type B civil servants, from the salary coefficient of 1.86 to the salary coefficient of 4.00.
