Senator Sherwin Gatchalian said he will raise the recurring issues on the hiring of teachers ahead of the Senate deliberations

Gatchalian has repeatedly urged the DepEd to speed up its hiring process. Data from the Department of Budget and Management reveals that as of February 17, 2023, there are 24,254 unfilled teaching positions in the DepEd.

The Commission on Audit also took note that while the DepEd was able to obligate 95% of its total adjustment allotments of P658.5 billion in its 2022 budget, the unutilized balance of P32.6 billion can be attributed to unfilled teaching positions, as well as the delayed, partial, and non-implementation of various programs, activities, and projects.

Senator Chiz Escudero, chair of the Senate Committee on Higher, Technical and Vocational Education, meanwhile asked his colleagues to pass the various bills that will create more public medical schools in the country. “Even if our population increase will decelerate and stabilize at 1.5 million a year, this would still have to be matched with new entrants to the medical profession,” Escudero stressed.
