If the teacher's workplace changes, will the school allowance remain?

Question

Currently, I receive a 20% bonus from the director's fund. I want to transfer to another school soon. If my workplace changes, will the 20% bonus remain?

Response

According to the Regulation, approved by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers No. 823 dated September 30, 2019, the establishment of bonuses for pedagogical workers at the expense of the director's fund is carried out by working groups created in the general education institution.

The working group is formed on the basis of a decision of the pedagogical council of the general education institution, by order of the director of the institution, in an odd number of at least seven people, consisting of representatives of the supervisory board of the general education institution and parents of students from among the managerial and pedagogical staff working in this educational institution.

Monthly allowances to the basic tariff rates of pedagogical workers of general education institutions from the director's fund are established for the new academic year based on the results of the previous academic year.

Since the bonus assigned to pedagogical workers is based on the results achieved in the educational institution where they work, and is determined by the working group of this educational institution, the bonus assigned when a pedagogical worker changes their place of work is not retained.

There is only one exception

Teachers and educators with the highest and first categories, recruited from other regions to general secondary educational institutions with a low level of education, retain the established allowances (percentages) from the director's fund of the general education institution where they actually worked.

In this case, these allowances are retained for one academic year and are reviewed by the Working Group of general secondary educational institutions with a low level of education in the following academic year.

If a teacher is assigned a bonus by a working group of a general secondary educational institution with a low level of education and is transferring to another school, the bonus is not retained in this case.

That is, bonuses are retained for one academic year only in one case - when a teacher moves to a school with a low level of education.

Basis: Clause 24-1 of the Regulation on the Procedure for the Formation of the Director's Fund for Incentivizing Distinguished Employees of General Secondary Educational Institutions and the Use of its Funds.
