NEWLY appointed Secretary of Education, Sen. Juan Edgardo Angara, has hardly warmed his seat when several organizations have already launched missile-like wish lists for the department. Let us please calm down and note that Senator Angara will only have four years until his term ends in 2028.
Four years is not enough to solve the gargantuan problems of the Department of Education .So, let us separate the chaff from the grain and see which proposals for improvement are important and doable, given the short timeline for Angara to make a dent in the department.Teachers group Teachers Dignity Coalition has listed 10 'critical areas' that Angara must do as the new secretary.
Another item is to fast-track the promotion system, particularly for senior high school teachers, and implement the career progression policy outlined in Executive Order 174.Lastly, the TDC said that Angara must address the perennial shortages in the classrooms, instructional materials and support personnel, including guidance counselors, librarians, health workers and other non-academic staff.
