According to Groisman, the growth of teachers ‘ salaries is a priority for the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
We will remind, in January of 2017 school teachers increased salaries in half. Teaching staff of other educational institutions – kindergartens and vocational schools – such allowance will receive only from 1 September.
Even after the revision of teachers ‘ salaries, the earnings of Ukrainian teachers remains one of the lowest in the world. For example, the Polish teachers in terms of the Ukrainian currency receive a minimum of 12,5 thousand UAH per month.
