8000 candidates for teachers have been tested in 29 schools of 12 Albanian districts, who are running for 2765 vacancies.

Prime Minister Rama and the Minister of Education, Lindita Nikolla, chose the “Bajram Curri” school in Durres to follow the testing of teachers and to make sure that the process is fulfilling all security criteria.

The Minister of Education, Lindita Nikolla, declared that this testing will be made every year, and the ranking will decide for the school where the teacher will work.

“Every evaluator must have a secrete test. The publishing of the entire list will be done through the ID and by preserving confidentiality. This is the answer that we give to corruption, by creating a healthy system, by removing the corruption of appointing without criteria and often based on political affiliations, and for returning the quality and authority of the learning figure”, declared Minister Nikolla.

Prime Minister Rama declared that the new process ends the corruptive procedures of teachers, which affected the quality of teachers and education.

“We are giving a very strong blow to the corruption by building a transparent system of competition, evaluation based on merit and by making it impossible for people to take positions without merit. The classification of this test will be the base on which anyone might join the education system. This is how we will replace the 2000 teachers without diploma”, Rama declared.

The testing of the teachers started at 11:00, continued for two hours in full safety conditions and the test will be evaluated in Tirana by a group of experts selected by the Ministry of Education.

The tests will be corrected by December 22nd and the ranking of teachers will be published on the website of the Ministry of Education.
