Lighter teachers' workload pushed

SEN. Sherwin Gatchalian on Saturday urged the new administration to decongest the workload of public school teachers so that they could focus on their teaching duties.

Gatchalian, who chairs the Senate Committee on Basic Education, Culture and the Arts, emphasized that decongesting the workload of teachers affects the quality and delivery of education to the country's K to 12 learners.
