200,000-lei allowances for Romanian language teachers going to teach in Gagauzia and Taraclia

The Government of the Republic of Moldova

Teaching staff who relocate to Gagauzia and Taraclia to teach school subjects in Romanian will receive one-off allowances worth 200,000 lei. A decision to this effect was approved today by the Government.

“We all want as many students as possible to know and speak Romanian well. One current constraint is the shortage of teachers who can teach in Romanian in these regions or work as primary school teachers, so that we can open more classes taught in Romanian. This project aims to encourage teachers from other regions to move to Gagauzia or Taraclia to teach in Romanian,” said Minister of Education and Research Dan Perciun.

The support mechanism for relocating teaching staff to Gagauzia and Taraclia is being established for the first time. It seeks to attract more teachers to the region, reduce the shortage of teaching staff, ensure a high-quality educational process, and improve students’ Romanian language results in schools where instruction is provided in the languages of ethnic minorities.

The allowance is granted to provide financial support to teaching staff who agree to relocate in order to fill vacant teaching positions in the region. The measure does not apply to teaching staff already employed by educational institutions in Gagauzia and Taraclia.

The allowance will be paid in two installments: the first after assignment and employment, and the second after six months of service, provided that the employment relationship is maintained. The support measures will benefit teaching staff who work for at least five years, with a minimum weekly teaching load of 18 hours, in schools in Gagauzia and Taraclia.
