According to R. Popovienė, creating an environment conducive to retention is as critical as recruiting qualified personnel. She stated that a teacher’s overall well-being is directly linked to the quality of student learning, the general school culture, and the professional longevity of the educator.
During a press conference on Tuesday, the Education Minister announced forthcoming regulations concerning mobile phone usage within educational institutions. The new guidelines mandate that every pre-school and general education school must establish a formal policy detailing the use of students’ personal phones and other electronic devices beginning September 1. Schools that have already developed such policies are advised to update them based on the latest recommendations.
In a separate decision, G. Nausėda announced a postponement regarding stricter usage requirements previously planned for tenth-grade students. These updated policies aim to standardize conduct across all schools.
The emphasis remains on fostering supportive environments where the teacher can thrive. The implementation date of these new rules is set for September, requiring proactive planning from all schools to ensure compliance before the academic year resumes. The measures reflect an ongoing commitment to improving the educational setting for both students and staff.
