Philippine DepEd to hire 61,000 new teachers next year
Education officials on Monday said
the department’s P293-billion budget was intended to end the backlog in
facilities for public school children.
During the budget hearing, Tinio also pitched for higher pay for volunteer kindergarten teachers, as well as for the regularization of all 23,000 of them. The volunteer teachers get a P3,000 honorarium a month, but could get up to P6,000 if they teach two sessions.
Luistro said about 8,000 of them were scheduled to be regularized in 2013.
Aside from hiring 61,000 new teachers, the education department would procure 907,000 seats and 31 million textbooks and other learning materials, Undersecretary Francis Varela said.
