Department Education proposal, adding new teaching positions of Teacher IV, Teacher V, Teacher VI, and Teacher VII
Recognizing the need for teachers to have improved professional growth and opportunities, DepEd is proposing to add new teaching positions of Teacher IV, Teacher V, Teacher VI, and Teacher VII with corresponding higher salary grades after the current items of Teacher I, Teacher II, and Teacher III.
“Napapansin namin at sinabi rin ng mga teacher, minsan nag-uumpisa silang Teacher I forever Teacher I na lang sila, maghihintay pa kung mayroong magre-retire. Isang proposal na ginawa ng DepEd sa DBM at sa Presidente ang dagdag na teaching positions na may katumbas na mataas na sweldo but depende sa performance. If you do well, then you go up,” Briones stated.
The Education chief therefore reminded everyone in the Department of their vital role the delivery of quality basic education – as mandated by the Constitution: “Kung mayroong asenso, mayroon ding responsibilidad.”
“There is so much work to be done. The fight for quality will require no less than a national effort, with our teachers at the forefront,” the Secretary concluded.
Bridging the salary gap from Teacher III to Master Teacher I, these new positions shall receive the following salary grades and updated salary table:
TEACHER IV: Salary Grade 14 - P29,277/month
TEACHER V: Salary Grade 15 - P32,053/month
TEACHER VI: Salary Grade 16 - P35,106/month
TEACHER VII: Salary Grade 17 - P38,464/month
