Public school teachers may receive more benefits, such as free medical check up and legal advice, Vice President and Education Secretary Sara Duterte said on Monday, Feb. 13.
Vice President Sara Duterte is the guest speaker during the Kalinga 28th founding anniversary and 4th Bodong Festival in Tagum City, Kalinga on Monday, Feb. 13, 2023.
DepEd is reviewing the Magna Carta for public school teachers, Duterte said, adding that the agency is continuously talking with the House of Representatives and Senate on how to update the current laws. “Ina-acknowledge po nila ang lahat ng demands namin at sinasabihan namin sila na dapat po buwan-buwan ay mayroon kaming coordination meeting hanggang sa maayos namin ang mga accounts ng ating mga teaching and non-teaching personnel sa Department of Education,” Duterte said.
“Dahil napakahalaga po na maintindihan ninyo kung ano ang pinipirmahan ninyong kontrata, at ma-explain sa inyo ng isang abugado kung ano po ang mangyayari kapag kayo po ay in default sa inyong pagbabayad sa inyong loan obligations,” the Vice President said. Meanwhile, in her speech, the Vice President also urged local leaders to “prioritize investments in education.”
