The size of salaries of teachers and principals of vocational schools will depend on the performance of the education institution, Minister of Education Maia Sandu said in the second Conference of Teachers and Masters of Technical Vocational Education, IPN reports.

The minister said that a team of experts, in cooperation with the Ministry of Education, will work out performance indicators based on which the salaries will be calculated. The level of the graduates’ involvement in the labor market will be one of these indicators.
