Abstract

This study assesses the current status of preschool teacher workforce development in Bao Loc City (Lam Dong Province) against the Preschool Teacher Professional Standards. A survey was conducted among 120 school managers and teachers from six preschools using a four-point Likert questionnaire (designed to describe and benchmark performance against the Standards’ criteria). The findings indicate positive changes in training and professional development, motivation, and working conditions; thereby it helped improve professional foundations and the school climate. However, limitations remain in workforce planning, recruitment and deployment of teachers by job position, and in evaluation practices that are not yet tightly linked to professional development and incentives. Based on these strengths, weaknesses, and underlying causes, the study proposes recommendations to improve data-informed planning, standardize competency-based recruitment, link evaluation to career development, and enhance working conditions; thereby supporting education authorities in adopting appropriate policies to improve the quality of the preschool teacher workforce in Lam Dong in the coming period.
