you to become…”

and have more…” (Pope Paul IV, Populorum Progressio, 1967) What message do you get in
relation to your pre-service education?
Pre-service education will prepare future teachers to learn a lot more from their field. It
provides student teachers before they have undertaken any teaching. This is an important
aspects of every teacher’s education curriculum as it prepares student teachers to become

observe policies, programs, and DepEd and government programs. And expected to be a legal
counsel, informing/advising community of actions/decisions to make based on the country’s
laws and that of DepEd.
