Fair promotion for public school teachers under new bill

A SUBSTITUTE bill for the Teacher Career Progression Act which will streamline career paths, merit-based promotion and compensation increase for public school teachers has been approved by the House Committee on Appropriations on second reading at the plenary.

Sponsored by Pasig City Rep. Roman Romulo, chairman of the Committee on Basic Education and Culture, the Teacher Career Progression Bill seeks to institutionalize two career paths for public school teachers: classroom teaching and school administration.
