ACT Chairperson Vladimer Quetua noted that currently, the country’s public schools are “short of 147,000 teachers to decisively reduce the class size to 35 students.” “Approximately, we need to hire 25,000 new teachers yearly until 2028 to eradicate the shortage, and an additional 5,000 new teachers to cover the yearly increase in enrolment, which totals to a requirement of 30,000 new teachers yearly,” Quetua said.Meanwhile, ACT pointed out that there is “nothing new” with the program of hiring new teachers every year as the national budgets in the past had already contained the creation of 5,000 new teaching items each year.
“We are sure the people’s taxes can support this if only the government would give due premium to education,” Quetua said.Apart from the provision of sufficient funding, ACT also urged DepEd to “resolve the bureaucratic red tape” that hinders the speedy hiring of teachers.
