Is the time working as a secondary school teacher counted for promotion at the high school level or not, how long is the promotion consideration time, is a question that teachers are concerned about.

Mr. Nguyen Hoang Thuan (Can Tho) is a teacher, with a university degree in 2012, his current salary is 3.99. In 2020, he transferred to secondary school teacher rank II, and in 2021 to high school teacher rank III.

Recently, Mr. Thuan applied for promotion to Secondary School Teacher rank II and was told that he did not have enough time to hold the rank for 9 years. Mr. Thuan asked, is the calculation of his rank time correct?
