BBM promise to hire more non-teaching staff in public schools
Presidential candidate Ferdinand ‘Bongbong’ Marcos Jr. vows to hire more non-teaching personnel in public schools to ease teachers workload.
Marcos said that many teachers do extra tasks which affect the quality of their teaching.
“We need to hire more non-teaching personnel who are qualified for the job, ‘yung tinutukoy ko is yung mga sobrang ginagawa ng mga guro na hindi naman dapat sila gumagawa. In that case, we can ease the work of the teachers,” Marcos said.
“Mabibigyan natin sila ng mahabang oras na makapaghanda, makapag-prepare ng mga lesson sa kung anong subject na ituturo nila. Kung minsan kasi ‘yung mga guro natin, teacher na sila nagiging librarian, nurse din sila, may nababalitaan pa tayo na may mga nagbabantay pa ng canteen,” he added.
Marcos added that removing the non-teaching tasks from the teachers workload will help educational standards in public schools.
“Nitong pandemic nakita natin kung paano ‘yung naging adjustment ng mga guro. Kahanga-hanga naman talaga, pero hindi natin maitatanggi na marami sa mga guro natin ang nahihirapan sa mga gawain, marami ang nai-stress, nadi-depress at labis na naapektuhan ‘yung kanilang mental health,” he said.
Aside from this, Marcos eyes to hire more teachers on permanent status.
