EO 174 “Expanded Career Progression System
for Public School Teachers”
• authorizes the creation of additional
teaching positions in the teaching career
line
• provides redefined parameters in choosing
between the established career options –
specialized classroom teaching and school
administration

Our Vision for Teachers’ Career
Progression
Teachers should be given
career options between
classroom teaching and
school administration.
“Wala ng public school
teacher ang magre-retire
na Teacher I lamang.”
Teachers’ career path
should allow them to
remain in the classroom
while advancing in stature
and compensation.
Teachers’ career
advancement should be
based on quality of
teaching practice.
Our Strategy to Realize our
Vision
Uphold teacher quality
standards through
competency- and
merit- based
promotion/reclass.
Clarify and rationalize career
paths for teachers.
Teachers may choose
alternative career paths
once they reach Highly
Proficient.
Create new positions in the
classroom teaching career
line (Teacher IV, V, VI, VII
and Master Teacher V)
thereby providing more
opportunities for promotion.
Reclassification as the
primary means for
promotion, making
promotion
faster and self-paced.

    Our Vision forTeachers’ Career Progression Teachers should be given career options between classroom teaching and school administration. “Wala ng public school teacher ang magre-retire na Teacher I lamang.” Teachers’ career path should allow them to remain in the classroom while advancing in stature and compensation. Teachers’ career advancement should be based on quality of teaching practice. Our Strategy to Realize our Vision Uphold teacher quality standards through competency- and merit- based promotion/reclass. Clarify and rationalize career paths for teachers. Teachers may choose alternative career paths once they reach Highly Proficient. Create new positions in the classroom teaching career line (Teacher IV, V, VI, VII and Master Teacher V) thereby providing more opportunities for promotion. Reclassification as the primary means for promotion, making promotion faster and self-paced.
