The current annual appropriation for professional learning represents a significant investment by the government in improving teacher quality through in-service development. It is appropriate, therefore, to ensure that the available funds are utilized efficiently and that they contribute in the long run to improvements in school effectiveness leading to greatly-improved student-learning achievement.
The Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST), which recognizes growth in teachers’ professional capacity and supports the K to 12 curriculum reform agenda, underpins the proposed system for the professional development of teachers. The current development of the Philippine Professional Standards for School Heads (PPSSH) and Philippine Professional Standards for Supervisors (PPSS) will further broaden the importance of a Transformed NEAP. These sets of Professional Standards will assist NEAP in the design and delivery of in-service professional development, and, through integrated monitoring and evaluation procedures, provide for accountability.
The proposed integrated system proposed would enable NEAP to strengthen schooling at a national level through the planning and delivery of professional development activities for classroom teachers and school leaders, which comprise headteachers, principals, supervisors, assistant school superintendents, superintendents, assistant regional directors, and regional directors.
