Principal left office for many days: District takes action to handle teachers' salaries

On November 22, Mr. Nguyen Van An, Head of the Finance and Planning Department of Chu Prong District (Gia Lai) confirmed that he had coordinated with relevant units to resolve the salary and salary allowance regime for November 2024 for cadres, teachers, and employees of Le Van Tam Secondary School (Ia Pior Commune, Chu Prong District).

"Resolving the salary and salary allowance regime for November 2024 right on the occasion of the Vietnamese Teachers' Day is a much-needed encouragement for teachers in border areas to feel secure in their work," said Mr. An.

Mr. Le Van Ban, Vice Principal of Le Van Tam Secondary School confirmed that on the afternoon of November 20, after being instructed by the internal affairs department and the finance department to complete the salary signing procedures and then transfer them to the district treasury for approval, at around 9:00 a.m. on November 21, all staff, teachers, and employees of the school received their November salaries.

Meanwhile, although the temporary suspension period has ended, Mr. Doan Huu Khue, Principal of Le Van Tam Secondary School, still did not come to work at the school, causing the salary and benefits of the teachers to not be resolved.

Previously, during the inspection of the management and use of funding sources at Le Van Tam Secondary School in the 2022-2023 period, Chu Prong District Inspectorate determined that Le Van Tam Secondary School had spent a number of items in violation of regulations.

Specifically, Le Van Tam Secondary School wrongly spent nearly 15 million VND in overtime pay for teachers; more than 16 million VND in study support money and 2 million VND in tuition fees for the 2022-2023 school year.

In addition to requiring Le Van Tam Secondary School to return the above-mentioned wrongly spent money, Chu Prong District Inspectorate also transferred the case file to the District Police Investigation Agency for consideration and handling according to authority.

After the incident was discovered, to serve the investigation, on September 5, 2024, the Chairman of the People's Committee of Chu Prong district issued a decision to temporarily suspend Mr. Doan Huu Khue, Principal of Le Van Tam Secondary School, for 15 days. All work at Le Van Tam Secondary School was handed over to Mr. Le Van Ban, Vice Principal.
