    The Teachers' Dignity Coalition welcomed the P207.4 billion budget allocation for education but noted it was not enough to significantly improve conditions. While supporting the hiring of 10,000 new teachers, the group said this would have little effect on addressing the major shortage of teachers, classrooms, and facilities reported by the Department of Education, which requested 120,230 new teachers and 54,362 new classrooms for the next school year alone. The coalition stressed that actual funding needs to match requirements and current problems must be addressed before implementing expensive new programs.

    A TEACHERS' group welcomed the proposed P207.

    4 billion allocation of the government for


    education but noted that the budget is not enough to alleviate the worsening sector.
    The Teachers' Dignity Coalition (TDC) also supported the proposal for hiring 10,000 new
    teachers next year, through P1.6 billion appropriation, as reported by Representative Eduardo
    Gullas (first district, Cebu).

    The shortage in teachers and classrooms has been a perennial problem of the education sector,
    this allocation will surely augment the situation in the field, said Benjo Basas, the groups
    national chairperson.
    But the group said the appropriation will have little effect in addressing the shortage of teachers,
    classrooms, and other facilities in public schools.
    We need more than what the government can offer right now and if we really want to improve
    the system, we have to provide the actual requirements in the field, Basas stressed.
    Data from the Department of Education (DepEd) shows that the agency requested for some
    120,230 new teachers and 54,362 new classrooms for school year 2011-2012.
    The 10,000 new teachers is just a small piece of the bulk of needs, Basas added.
    Basa said the current problems in the education sector should be first addressed by the
    administration before it ventures into more expensive programs like the 12-year basic education
    cycle. (Kathrina Alvarez/Sunnex)
