Philippine Public School Teachers
« on: October 05, 2010, 04:57:14 PM »
President Benigno Simeon C. Aquino III assurred government's continuing action against corruption to help alleviate the plight of public school teachers nationwide.

Such action is needed so more government funds can be used instead to provide such teachers with the training, benefits, tools and facilities for further enhancing their performance at work, he noted.

"I won't be blind to problems we must address," he said Tuesday in Pasig City during a program marking World Teachers Day (WTD).

President Aquino believes government must extend as much assistance to public school teachers as possible since their work is vital to nation-building.

"Shaping children's minds is a big task," he said.

Aside from their school duties, he said teachers also act as parents who advise students on how to cope with their problems.

He acknowledged low pay and lack of logistics support for the teachers at present make their task more difficult.

President Aquino lauded the teachers for persevering to educate the youth despite such difficulty.

"Your sacrifice and dedication to work is incomparable," he said.

He is pleased about celebration of WTD, convinced this helps highlight teachers' role in moving the country forward.

"It's a small recognition of teachers' contribution to society," he said.

Earlier, Malacanang proposed for Department of Education (DepEd) next year a budget of P207.3 billion.

This amount represents 12.6 percent or the biggest chunk of Malacanang's total P1.6 trillion proposed 2011 budget.

The proposed budget is also 18.4 percent higher than the P175 billion DepEd budget for this year.

Such increase is the highest for DepEd in over a decade, Malacanang noted.

Malacanang said the proposed hike in DepEd's 2011 budget includes provisions for constructing 13,147 additional classrooms and creating 10,000 teaching positions in government. (PNA)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
