subject or grades he handles, provided that such determination shall be in accordance with generally accepted
procedures of evaluation and measurement. In case of any complaint, teachers concerned shall immediately take
appropriate actions, observing due process.

Before anything else the teacher are only computing the scores and the student who make the score The teacher has
the sole duty to determined the academics mark of the student and I would like to emphasized that the teacher are the
one who computing the scores of the student and the student are the one making their own grades. So there are times
that teacher’s would also over look some of the important data’s there and if there are complain then listen to it take a
look at your record if there is a mistake it’s very easy to accept your mistakes and apologize do the necessary action but
if you think there is no wrong be confident telling the parent or the student that there is nothing wrong with the
competition. More than anyone the teacher is the only one who knows the grades of the student because he the only
one who handles the result the different evaluative tool and quizzes given to student so give the student right grades or
due based on the outputs and the score that they have on the quizzes and activities.

for such service.

For example you tutor your student you teach them your subject at home or after work you shall not accept payment

of other year level contact you and ask you to teach their student outside office hours that’s the only time that you can
ask for remuneration or bayad. But for remedial given to your students you’re not supposed to be get additional
remuneration cause that is your job.

ma chismis di ma marites di mag tagaan ug meaning ang ilang interaction to their student na involve but as much as
