A1+: Minimum salary for teachers set


For the first time in Armenia the minimum wage for teachers is set at the state level. Under the new funding formula, according to the salary calculation coefficients, the minimum salary of teacher will be about 108,000 drams (including tax). 

 

The corresponding decision was adopted at the October 31 sitting of the RA Government, which will enter into force on January 1, 2020, and will become a legal guarantee that any teacher who teaches full-time will no longer be paid below the prescribed rate.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
