Education Minister Ligia Deka said that “around a hundred” school principals had recently resigned, and about 60% of them cited low pay as the reason for their resignation. She said that there are promises that the salary issue for this category will be resolved in the coming weeks, according to News.ro.

• “I centralized the situation. 94, 95 (dismissed school directors – no), if I do not betray. Of these, approximately 60% cited pay conditions as the reason for dismissal, so there were also dismissals that, in our opinion, were not necessarily related to this. We know the problem, it worsened when an additional amount was entered into the database. This is the issue of the wage scale, which is an annex to the Public Wages Act, we have communicated this in writing both to the Ministry of Labor and at the government level since July, we have promises that a solution will be found in the coming weeks,” he told Ligia Deca , Monday, on TVR Info.

She expressed the readiness of the ministry to work on solving the problems with the salaries of school principals, noting that it is normal for them to receive adequate remuneration.
