According to the Ministry of Education and Training, the settlement of regimes for redundant staff is basically carried out cautiously and in accordance with regulations, contributing to stabilizing staff ideology and creating consensus in the arrangement process.
However, practice also shows that this is a sensitive and complex content that needs to continue to be concerned about. In some localities, the scale of schools, the number of school sites and the scope of management have increased after arrangement, while the structure of management staff is not really commensurate.
Therefore, this Ministry will continue to review and arrange staff associated with job positions, school scale and local characteristics; and at the same time strengthen management capacity training for the team of CSGD management officials.
