In line with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s directive to prioritize the welfare of Filipino educators, the Department of Education (DepEd) has issued the Implementation Guidelines for the Rationalization of Teachers’ Workload in Public Schools and Compensation for Teaching Overload through DepEd Order No. 005, s. 2024.

Signed by Education Secretary Sonny Angara, DepEd Memorandum No. 053, s. 2024 serves as a supplemental issuance to streamline the application of the key provisions of DO 005, s. 2024. The memorandum addresses operational concerns raised by teachers and field personnel, ensuring consistency and clarity in the policy’s execution.

“By optimizing teachers’ workloads and providing fair compensation for additional duties, we are creating a more balanced and sustainable environment for our educators. This will ultimately enhance student learning outcomes,” said Secretary Angara.

Key Provisions

DepEd Memorandum No. 053, s. 2024 reiterates that teachers are not required to teach more than six hours per day, in accordance with the Magna Carta for Public School Teachers (Republic Act No. 4670). In exceptional cases where teachers exceed this six-hour limit, they will be eligible for overload pay for up to two additional hours per day.

In instances where teachers have fewer than six hours of actual teaching, they may be assigned teaching-related tasks, proportionate to the time available. These guidelines ensure that teaching overloads are managed transparently, with clear procedures for compensation and equitable workload distribution.

Furthermore, teachers performing work beyond their regular six-hour load may earn Vacation Service Credits (VSC), providing additional recognition for their contributions.

Ancillary Tasks and Flexibility

Teachers will also have flexibility in completing ancillary tasks, with the option to perform them inside or outside school premises. Importantly, no additional reporting requirements will be imposed. Instead, teachers will simply track their activities using logbooks, locator slips, or certificates of undertaking.

Support and Implementation

To facilitate the smooth rollout of these policies, DepEd will provide standardized templates and materials through its online platforms. An implementation team, led by the Assistant Schools Division Superintendent, will oversee the policy’s enforcement across all schools, ensuring compliance with the established guidelines.
