In her Basic Education Report 2023 on Monday, Duterte recognized that the education system has “failed” and “burdened” teachers.In laying down the education agenda during her term, she underscored that teachers would not be left behind, as the government intended to provide support through professional development programs, the removal of nonteaching tasks, and the fast-tracking of the implementation of the career progression policy.
ACT commended Duterte for admitting the “undeniable dismal state” of basic education in the country—a “positive move that many past DepEd secretaries failed to do as they were too occupied defending themselves from complaints and criticisms.”
