Review of RBPMS, teachers’ workload ordered
By Creselda Canda-Lopez

“By 2025, as what we have mentioned, there would be total of 140,000 ,available positions, 90,000 will be coming from result of this career progression,” Department of Education (DepEd)Undersecretary for human resource and organizational development Wilfredo Cabral told reporters in press briefing.Education Secretary Sonny Angara has signed memorandum creating task force that will review implementation of DepEd Results-Based Performance Management System (RBPMS) as well as workload and other reportorial requirements for public school teachers.
In his DepEd Memorandum No. 037 dated July 26, Angara directed task force to submit to his office within three months “comprehensive policy recommendation” following review that shall be conducted immediately.
Under memorandum, task force, composed of advisory board and technical working group, shall perform three main tasks , review and study implementation of DepEd’s RBPMS which started in 2015, review and assess teachers’ workload and reportorial requirements and recommend streamlined system for report preparation.
Memorandum further stated streamlining reportorial requirements for teachers is aligned with its earlier Department Order 002 series of 2024 removing administrative tasks of public school teachers and DO 005 series of 2024 rationalizing teachers’ workload and payment of teaching overload.
Following issuance of new memorandum, Angara convened top officials of DepEd in second executive committee meeting at DepEd central office in Pasig City.
Just last week, Angara temporarily suspended teachers’ submission of their Individual Performance Commitment and Review Form (IPCRF) and Office Performance Commitment and Review Forms (OPCRF) for School Year 2023-2024 so as not to add to burden of preparing for opening of classes for SY 2024-2025.
IPCRF/OPCRF is assessment tool used in rating performance of teachers and school personnel for the year. It serves as DepEd’s primary basis in its implementation of RBPMS and Performance-Based Bonus for teachers and education personnel.
Alliance of Concerned Teachers and Teachers Dignity Coalition have earlier called for suspension of the implementation of the RBPMS.
Meanwhile, around 140,000 positions are expected to be available to public school teachers by next year through implementation of expanded career progression system.
Angara led implementing rules and regulations signing of “Expanded Career Progression System for Public School Teachers” last Friday, ensuring public school teachers will have option to pursue either higher teaching positions or leadership roles in school.
He stressed giving career path choices for teachers will help improve quality of education in the country, because of “teachers’ experience and skills.”
