Potential teachers drawn to 2 districts
Print Edition
SCHOOLS at Hongkou and Minhang districts proved a popular choice for teachers at a job fair on Sunday at Shanghai Mart.
Local authorities had introduced favorable policies to attract outstanding teachers as well as seeking to end a shortage.
Some schools from Minhang District wrote directly on their recruiting ads that they would offer dorms.
“Housing cost is very high in Shanghai and Minhang’s new policy is really attractive for fresh graduates like me, who have no savings,” said a PE major surnamed Tang from Shanghai University of Sport who was seeking a position. He also believed that apartments provided by the government would be much safer and more convenient.
Hongkou became the first downtown district to break through the previous requirement for applicants to possess hukou, or registered permanent residence permits, to be employed by public schools.
From this year, those who have passed assessments can be employed without hukou.
Qi Song, director of the human resources division of Hongkou District Education Bureau, said the new policy was introduced to expand choices of qualified teachers as the demand was increasing due to population growth, relaxed family planning policy, retirement of senior teachers and the opening of new schools.
He said the district planned to recruit 410 teachers this year, including 90 for kindergartens.
