Education Secretary Sonny Angara on Monday emphasized the importance of reforming teacher education to address learning loss and prepare educators for the demands of 21st-century classrooms. 

Speaking at the Teacher Education Council (TEC) Symposium on Pre-service Teacher Education Curriculum Reframing at the Metropolitan Theater in Manila, Angara said the Department of Education (DepEd) is committed to upskilling and reskilling teachers to ensure a better future for Filipino learners.

“Education is a long game—a series of investments that will pay dividends toward a more prosperous nation. Kapag mahusay ang guro, siguradong maganda ang resulta para sa kabataan at sa bansa,” Sec. Angara said. 

Aligned with President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s commitment to sustain gains in human capital development, Angara added that improving teacher education is key to addressing systemic learning issues and creating future-ready classrooms.

Angara pointed to the 2024 Memorandum of Agreement with the Philippine Normal University (PNU) as a significant step toward enhancing the quality of teacher training, aligning curricula with global standards, and equipping educators with modern teaching strategies. 

“Curriculum reform is not just a policy shift; it is a moral imperative. Teachers are central to our national interest, and their excellence sets off a chain reaction that propels other reforms,” Angara said. 

The TEC Symposium gathered education leaders and stakeholders to discuss ways to modernize teacher education and improve its impact on student outcomes.

Angara called on Filipinos to support DepEd’s initiatives: “Together, we can ensure that teacher education evolves to meet the challenges of tomorrow.” 

Spearheaded by the TEC Secretariat, led by Executive Director Jennie V. Jocson, the symposium was attended by TESDA Director General Jose Francisco Benitez, education stakeholders, and officials of colleges of education from Teacher Education Institutions (TEIs) all over the country.
