The head of the Teachers Dignity Coalition on Tuesday said that while his group appreciates praises given to educators, he urged politicians and officials of the Department of Education to finally give what is due them like salary hike, mandated 60-day rest after each school year, additional health benefits, as well as lessening the workload of teachers.
Basas added that the country’s elected officials and bureaucrats running the education agencies “have their hearts set on things too remote from our teachers’ well-being, our children’s education, and our people’s future.”The Alliance of Concerned Teachers , meanwhile, also shared the same sentiment with TDC.
Quetua also said that despite repeated promises by DepEd to lessen the teachers’ workload, the reality is that they are still taking in more than the required work by attending to teaching and clerical or ancillary tasks due to the government’s failure to hire more teachers. “Teachers in public schools manage an average of 45-60 students per class, with some experiencing shifts and overtime without additional compensation,” he added.
