By: Jhenrey Nicole Campion
Education is one of the most precious things that our world has. This is the investment of the students for a better future that lies ahead. Next year will be the first implementation of the Senior High School in the Philippines. The Department of Education is now preparing the needed materials, buildings and number of teachers for the Senior High School. They have been assessing the schools for the construction of the buildings and also the number of teachers they will have for the new departments.
According to the “chance” interview to the two officials coming from the Department of Education, Division of Iloilo namely Ms. Ruby Therese Palmaira, Education Program Supervisor 1-English and Dr. Reynaldo G. Gico, Ph. D., CESO VI, Asst. Schools Division Superintendent, some of the qualifications of teachers to teach in Senior High are; being a master’s degree holder, to have a full grasp of the subject you are teaching and a National Certificate from TESDA. They created these qualifications for the teachers to ensure that all of them can deliver their lesson remarkably to the extent that the students can easily digest the lesson. They also created the Academic and TVL Tracks to help facilitate in the learning of the students.
