Lithuania’s Education Ministry plans to raise teachers’ salaries to 170% of the official base salary by the third quarter of 2028. Teachers currently earn 152.9% of that benchmark.
The official base salary is the amount set by the state and used to calculate pay. Under the plan, state funding for education workers’ salaries would increase at least 5% faster than projected wage growth across Lithuania.
The salary targets have already been included in the government’s plan for implementing its programme.
