A locality publicly announces criteria for selecting management officials when arranging schools
Implementing the direction of the Central Government and Quang Tri Provincial People's Committee, the education and training sector is urgently preparing the conditions for the new school year, in which arranging and reorganizing the school network is one of the key tasks.
According to the Department of Education and Training of Quang Tri province, in the 2025-2026 school year, the whole province has nearly 900 public preschool and general education institutions. It is expected that after arrangement, the number of school focal points will decrease by more than 50%.
Along with arranging the school network, the personnel issue when merging is being raised by Quang Tri province as a requirement to be resolved soon.
Ms. Le Thi Huong - Director of Quang Tri Department of Education and Training said that the arrangement process affects many subjects, especially related to policies for management officials, teachers, and redundant staff. Therefore, the Department of Education and Training proposed that the Department of Home Affairs soon coordinate to issue specific guidelines on organizational structure and related regimes and policies.
According to the viewpoint of Quang Tri Provincial People's Committee, the arrangement of schools and classes must prioritize quality instead of just relying on mechanical scale. For the model of inter-level 2-3 schools or merging high schools, the province does not mechanically apply the criteria of class size and scale, but must assess which model ensures better teaching and learning quality.
Mr. Le Hong Vinh - Chairman of Quang Tri Provincial People's Committee said that it is necessary to soon build and promulgate a framework of standards and public personnel criteria to serve the selection of management officials when merging, especially the positions of principals and vice principals.
