Dafang owes 480 million yuan in teachers' wages

  "Not generous" in Dafang County, Bijie City, Guizhou Province has recently hit public opinion.

  The State Council’s “Internet + Inspector” platform recently notified Dafang County, Bijie City, Guizhou Province of problems such as arrears of teacher wage subsidies and misappropriation of educational funds.

The report shows that Dafang County has defaulted on teachers’ wage subsidies since 2015. As of August 20, 2020, a total of 479.61 million yuan in arrears of teachers’ performance wages, living allowances, five insurances and one housing fund, etc., misappropriated 34194 special education funds allocated by higher authorities. Ten thousand yuan.

At the same time, it was discovered that Dafang County, in the name of advancing the reform of the supply and marketing cooperative, initiated the establishment of a financing platform company to absorb funds in violation of regulations, in a disguised form, forcing teachers to deposit shares and withholding living allowances for students in difficulties.

  The failure to implement the requirement that the average salary level of teachers at the compulsory education stage is not lower than the average salary level of civil servants has also been exposed with this inspection.

According to investigations, in 2018, the average teacher salary of the compulsory education in Dafang County should be 78,726 yuan per person per year, and the actual salary should be 65,503 yuan. The civil servants in Dafang County should be paid 79552 yuan per person per year, and the actual salary should be 66316 yuan. The average teacher salary level is lower than Local civil servants are around 800 yuan.

In 2019, the average teacher salary in Dafang County should be 78,765 yuan per person per year, and 63,974 yuan should be paid per person, and the civil servants in Dafang County should be paid 83,761 yuan per person per year and 69,294 yuan per person. The average teacher salary level is lower than that of local civil servants by about 5,000 yuan. The gap has not decreased but increased.

In the first half of 2020, the average salary of teachers in Dafang County is still lower than the average salary of local civil servants.

  The conclusion of this notice is rigorously worded: "Order Dafang County to conduct serious inspections and rectifications, to immediately correct violations and to be held accountable, and at the same time to draw inferences from one another and conduct a comprehensive investigation of similar issues." Industry experts commented that this is for the local area. A wake-up call is also an explanation to teachers and even the public.

"The country will prosper, and the teacher must be worthy of the teacher.

The salary level of teachers is directly related to the quality of education.

To build a strong education country and create a social atmosphere that respects teachers and respects education, if there is no pragmatic guarantee for the treatment of teachers, it will be "empty talk."

  What is intriguing is the time point when the State Council’s “Internet + Inspector” platform exposed the matter — undoubtedly, the choice to be exposed at a special node on the eve of Teacher’s Day just demonstrated the government’s determination and attitude towards guaranteeing teachers’ salaries.

Three orders and five applications of the central government to guarantee the treatment of teachers

  The behavior of Dafang County can be called "competing against the wind."

  With regard to the policy of guaranteeing the treatment of teachers, the Party Central Committee and the State Council have a clear bottom line and red line.

"Financial education funds should give priority to guaranteeing the wages of teachers and staff in primary and secondary schools", "Special funds for social insurance funds are used exclusively, and no organization or individual may embezzle or misappropriate" "The average salary of teachers should not be lower than the average salary of local civil servants"... Some regulations and regulations promulgated from the central to the local level have attached great importance to them, and have repeatedly reiterated and urged their implementation.

In 2018 alone, after the State Council issued the "Opinions on Comprehensively Deepening the Reform of Teaching Staff in the New Era", and for the first time proposed the goal that teachers' salaries should not be lower than civil servants' salaries, it has issued 5 consecutive documents, all mentioning teacher salary increases. The request is promised to be resolved within 3 years.

  This year, a number of policies have been introduced, sending a signal to increase efforts to ensure that the above requirements are implemented.

In March of this year, the Office of the Education Supervision Committee of the State Council issued a notice: making specific arrangements for the supervision of the implementation of compulsory education teachers' salary income in 2020.

The overall goal of "Achieving the average salary income level of compulsory education teachers not lower than the average salary income level of local civil servants by the end of 2020" is required.

  On May 19, Tian Zuyin, director of the Office of the Education Supervision Committee of the State Council, clearly stated at a press conference held by the Ministry of Education that the salary level of compulsory education teachers should not be lower than that of civil servants. This task must be completed by the end of this year as a hard task. All localities are required to conduct self-inspections, "We will organize on-site inspections in September or October in the second half of the year."

  From July 1, the Office of the State Council’s Educational Steering Committee opened the “Reporting Platform for Compulsory Education Teachers’ Average Salary Income Level Not Lower than the Average Salary Income of Local Civil Servants” on the WeChat official accounts of “Weiyan Education” and “China Education Supervision”.

If there is a case in which the salary of compulsory education teachers is in arrears, and the average salary level of the compulsory education teachers in the school location is lower than that of the local civil servants, you can make a real name report.

The Office of the Education Supervision Committee of the State Council will urge the relevant localities to verify and handle the clues received in real-name reports.

For compulsory education teachers who reflect strong and universal clues to important issues, they will be sent to inspect.

After verification, the more typical problems will be publicly exposed.

  Some commentators pointed out that the opening of the reporting platform by the relevant State Council department is obviously to publicly support teachers with potential damage to their rights, and to "act real" where they dare to deduct teachers' wages.

  As a matter of fact, as early as the end of 2019, the Ministry of Education has clarified the key points of this work in 2020-issued a document to supervise the implementation of "the salary of teachers in compulsory education is not lower than that of civil servants" across the country.

If there is a problem, it will take the form of interviews and accountability to strengthen the implementation of rectification and reform by the local government.

  Various localities have also continued to increase teachers’ salaries and salaries.

For example, Shandong proposes to ensure that the average salary of compulsory education teachers in all counties (cities, districts) is not lower than the average salary of local civil servants.

Fujian conducted interviews with the chief officials of the governments of three counties (cities, districts) on the issue that the average salary income of compulsory education teachers is lower than the average salary income of local civil servants.

Yunnan, Sichuan, Hunan, Guangdong and other places have also adopted methods such as granting subsidies to improve teachers' salaries and raise their wages.
