Recently, the issue of teachers' treatment has once again sparked heated discussions.
According to the surging news on December 25, in April this year, at the teaching congress of the Hunan University of Finance and Economics, some representatives proposed that "it is difficult for young teachers to pay four or five thousand yuan a month to support their families" and "it is recommended that the performance salary of young teachers can be paid in full every month". In December, the university replied that performance pay is divided into basic performance pay and incentive performance pay, of which 60% of the basic performance salary is paid monthly, and the other 40% is paid at the end of the year.
Is the salary package of young teachers reasonable?Some people may think that teachers have about three months of vacation a year, and it is understandable that their salaries are slightly lower. But the problem is that if it affects the quality of life, it is also unreasonable;And there is another reason, the distribution is not scientific.
Some of the salaries of teachers will not be paid until the end of the year. As a result, there is a large difference between the total salary and benefits and the total actual payment. In areas with a high level of consumption, only four or five thousand yuan per month is received, and even if there are relevant benefits, it is also "far from water can not quench the thirst".
In addition to cash flow, "green peppers" (the self-proclaimed name of young teachers in low-paid universities) are facing a collective dilemma - low salary levels and high assessment pressure. What's more, the salary is linked to the title and teaching experience, which is a helpless pain point for many young practitioners.
In any case, the current situation of young teachers' salaries not only dampens educational feelings, but also encourages slackness. Although they have the halo of "beacon of life" behind them, they are facing practical problems such as firewood, rice, oil and salt, marriage and love, and children's education.
Raising salaries and reducing pressure on young teachers is the key to solving the problem. On the one hand, we should effectively improve the level of remuneration. This is not limited to direct measures such as optimizing the salary structure, increasing the increase of performance-based wages, and abolishing the upper limit on performance-based wages, but also can start with supporting measures such as providing swing housing, youth apartments, and subsidies for the first home purchase to solve their worries.
On the other hand, we will continue to optimize the assessment and evaluation system. The evaluation system is no longer one-size-fits-all, and teaching and scientific research can also be classified and evaluated. After all,The foundation of the school is to teach and cultivate talents, and even if it does scientific research, it must be inclined to teaching services. Therefore, for young teachers, a diversified and dynamic evaluation system should be formed based on "quality" and "growth".
No one is always young, but there are always people young, in the face of the "education recruits" who go forward and succeeded, we should do our best to care for their original intention to devote themselves to the cause of education, and improve their remuneration. In this matter, it is necessary not only for the public to be rational and peaceful, but also for the voice of empathy, and for the faculty and staff to actively reflect the problem and jointly explore the way out.
