10. Reality of a
Public School
Teacher
 The workload of a teacher is not
only limited to teaching but also
includes non-teaching
tasks
 Actual teaching is increasingly
being sidelined
 Teachers want to spend more time
with students
(PIDS, 2018)

11. 50 Most Common Ancillary
Tasks
Based on the 2018 Teacher Workload Study

12. Our
Hope

13. We will give support to teachers to teach
better.
We will remove the non-teaching tasks and
provide administrative officers in Schools. We will
provide adequate manpower complement in
Schools, manage teacher’s workload, and
compensate for unique school challenges.

THE GOAL OF THE
MATATAG
AGENDA
We aim for Teacher Quality and
Teacher Welfare as we firmly
believe that the core of quality
basic education is a vibrant and
quality teaching workforce.

15. Teacher at the
Forefront of the
MATATAG Agenda
Teachers will be given more time for teaching
Administrative tasks will be removed from teachers’ workload
Teachers will be compensated in actual classroom teaching
rendered more than 6 hours
Teachers will be compensated in teaching-related assignments
designated to them

16. Our
Response

17. The Teacher
Workload Policies

18. 18
What problem does the policy
solve?
1. Teachers are overworked.
The Department has been receiving numerous
concerns surrounding the workload of teachers and
that they are increasingly burdened because of non-
teaching tasks.
2. Teachers play numerous
roles outside their core
mandate.
Studies have shown that the workload of teachers is
not only limited to teaching but also to many other
non-teaching tasks.
3. Teachers are not
properly compensated for excess
workload
There are no existing policies that guide the teachers in
processing their benefits for work rendered beyond the
eight-hour workday.
How does the policy address the
problem?
It protects Teacher Work Hours.
The policies enable teachers to devote their time to
teaching.
It defines Teacher Workload.
The policies clearly define the responsibilities of School
Heads, teachers, and non-teaching personnel. Specifically for
teachers, the policies provide the following:
What should be: Tasks mandated to be performed by teachers
What should not be: Tasks that should not be performed by
teachers
What can be: Tasks that can be performed by teachers, but are
not mandatory
It provides guidelines and processes
for the payment of teaching
overload.
The policy establishes the procedures, roles of Offices,
and documentary requirements for the payment of
teaching overload.

Where,
AR = Annual salary rate of each teacher proposed to be paid overload
W = Total teaching hours (This is computed at 40 hours/week multiplied by 40 weeks or 1,600 hours.)
T = 1.25 or 125% of the teacher’s remuneration for services in excess of 6 hours actual teaching per day
but not more than 2 hours.
