Magna Carta for Public School Teachers

This act is very important to the teachers in the public schools. It protects the rights of the teachers, like tenure of office, academic freedom, and other benefits for their well-being. There is a section in this act that mandates the head of office to inform the teachers of this code.

Unfortunately, this is not so. Some teachers are not privy to the provisions of this code as this is not discussed with them. Whenever a question arises as to the legality of any action by the teacher, he or she has to find a copy of this code.
filipino teachers

There was a teacher who requested for a study leave for one year. Since she did not know that she is entitled to a study leave with pay, she applied for a study leave without pay. The principal told her that her application might not be approved as this is no longer allowed. She was advised to personally talk to the superintendent and discuss her request with her. Her papers did not have the endorsement of the principal. When she talked to the superintendent, the superintendent told her to go back to her principal and have her papers signed by the principal first before the superintendent signs it. When the papers were finally signed by the two school officials, she went to the regional office for processing. To her surprise, she was told that she is eligible for a study leave with pay as she has already served more than seven years.



She was shown a copy of the Magna Carta. Isn’t it deplorable that the information must come from a mere processing clerk than from the two school officials? Aren’t they supposed to be the source of information? Is this not a case of withholding information for some ulterior motives?

Magna Carta for public school teachers serves as the guide to “utter” protection and freedom, away from threats and terminations from the concerned authorities. If you not aware of this law, you are always threatened by the administrators or any person in authority to terminate you from work once you violated the law. For the information of everybody, the Magna Carta has significantly defined along with its history in the English realms, it is also known as Magna Carta Libertatum, an English 1215 charter which limited the power of English Monarchs, specifically King John, from absolute rule.

Magna Carta was the result of disagreements between the Pope and King John and his barons over the rights of the king: Magna Carta required the king to renounce certain rights and respect certain legal procedures, and to accept that the will of the king could be bound by law. Magna Carta is widely considered to be the first step in a long historical process leading to the rule of constitutional law. All of them are patterned after the present Magna Carta law for teachers.

In order to be protected from abuses, etc. I think every teacher must have a copy of this Magna Carta with him so that whenever he feels aggrieved, he can refer to this law to protect his rights. And that is the essence of Magna Carta for teachers both in the public and private schools in the Philippines.

Good afternoon! Thank you for this info. I'd like to raise a question,is this applicable for LSB teachers?

Actually, many of us teachers have served for more than seven years but we can not take this opportunity in our region. Cguro palakasan lang jud!

Hi there! i just want to ask if the one year study leave with pay is applicable to doctoral? thanks and God Bless!

The RA 9155 is very helpful esp to us teachers! But then we were still manipulated by the principal's whims.Instead we will try to go with the flow even sometimes it hurts to our own ego. What should be done? to perform our duties as teachers or to do first what the head of office mandated as to do. it is very hard to fulfill multiple tasks, really. So sir principal, try to delegate other works to other untapped human resources. thanks and more power!

My aunts are school teachers, as far as I know, they went on study leaves on their own dime. Kasi if they waited out for their paid leave approvals, getting their MAs might not ever happen for them. Sad, but both ended up leaving the country to teach abroad.

good morning! I am public school teacher for 5 years in service. I am applying for transfer from my present station to the locality where my husband resides who is also a public shool teacher since 2006. But until now my request has not yet granted. I am aware that it is specified in the R.A 4670" The magna carta for public shool taechers" sec.11 states that married couple specially both of whom are public school teachers should be employed in the same locality. It seems that the proper authorities are ignoring my request.i feel so hopeless with my request specially that my request has been rejected 4 times already. What would be the best thing that I can do? Could I approach somebody who could help me with my concern who is in proper authorities?

Ako po ay isang guro sa pampublikong paaralan, minsan na akong naglagom sa mga katiwalian o nagtanong kung bakit kelangang gamitin ang pondo ng paaralang ng aming punong guro sa personal niyang pangangailangan. at dahil doon ay lagi na niya akong inoobserbahan sa klase, tatlong beses sa isang linggo. Nasa Magna Carta po ba ang karapatan ko namang tumanggi?

I am also a teacher who requested for transfer to another station nearer to my residence. For a year i waited for a reply to my request and receive nothing at all but mere assumption that my request has been denied.I am requesting for higher officials to be considerate in informing the teachers their answer. The request is made formally and should be answered formally too.

Sino po ang familiar sa Section 27 of this RA4670? Tanong ko po if tama ba ang interpretasyon ko sa Section 27 na ito? Na nang Teachers ay may right to freely join organizations of their choosing....Ibig sabihin pwd rin na hindi mag join ang isang guro sa isang organizations? tama ba? kasi dito sa aming Division, ang guro ay dapat magbayad ng hindi naman nya gusto magpa member sa isang organization dito kaya lang ma force ang teacher kasi nakalagay sa Clearance...pag di namna mag paclearance...hindi ibigay ng Division Office ang aming payslip...

Hi...I agree about giving every teacher a copy of the Magna Carta, coz here in our division teachers are not allowed to read it, principals are given instruction to keep their copy. I don't think this is right because the Magna Carta contains laws and it's for everyone to see. Thank you.

Magandang araw po mga masisipag na Kaguro at mga MAtatalinong Punongguro,
marami po akong tanong na sana po masagot;
1. Meron po bang batas na kung 3 consecutive na "S" ang teacher sa performance ay subject for termination na sya?
2. Bakit sampu sa kanyang mga subordinates ay "S" sa performance samantalang si Principal ay "O" sa performance. Di po ba apektado ang leadership skills nya?....
3.Nasa batas po ba na ang Punongguro ang mag-rerecomend kung sino ang gusto nya na maipromote kahit walang MA?
4. Karapatan po ba ng punongguro na harangin ang papel ng guro na tapos na ng MA na mag-aaply ng ERF?
5. Ano po ba ang dapat gawin sa punongguro na nag-aakusa sa guro na wala namang kasulatan?
kung may alam po kayong batas tungkol dito paki post na lang po.

after reading this article,i realized that many of us teachers are still blind and unaware of the things that we should actually know...because of innocence,it is sad to know that some of us became victims of those people we respected and we thought would help and guide us during difficult times...this article reminded of the saying that"innocence is not an excuse..." I think we are responsible for ourselves..as teachers we should not stop learning ...not only about the things that we are teaching to our pupils but with everything specially with all our privileges so we could stand for what we think is lawful!

I just want to ask if we are allowed to bring our kids at school. I was told by my principal not to bring my five-year old kid at school but I told her that there's no one to take care of him. She said that it is impossible since I can afford to pay for a nanny. My kid is already studying outside my school- in a daycare center. I bring him at school at 7am and a friend picks him up at 10am for school. I told my principal that my kid doesn't stay at school for the whole day but she still says that it is more appropriate to leave him at home with a nanny. We already had an experience with a nanny and I don't want to risk my son's health again.

On tutoring, it's not in the Code of Ethics pero delikadesa na lang sana na hindi itutor ng titser ang sariling estudyante ng may bayad. This might have an effect on the ratings /grades of the child. or others may suspek that the titser is biased. Patutor mu na lang sa ibang titser. There's no schedule for the renumeration.

May binigyan po kasi ako ng failing grade n estudyante at may reasons po kung bakit sa tingin ko ay karapat dapat sya sa ganung marka. Subalit natuklasan ko po na binago ng class adviser ang marka na ibinigay ko, dahil daw po iyon ay pinag utos ng mga head teachers at kagustuhan na rin po ng principal namin. pinalitan po nila ng pasadong marka ang ibinigay ko without informing me as subject teacher. ang sabi po ng principal ay nakiusap daw po kasi ang guardian ng bata at pati n rin ang PTA president ng School. Ano po bang violation ang pwede ko maireklamo sa kanila dahil hindi ko po talaga matanggap ang ganung pamamaraan. Unfair po kasi sa mga batang nagsusumikap at pinagsusumikapan din ng magulang ang pagtataguyod sa kanilang pag aaral. Aware po ang guardian ng estudyanteng nabanggit na hindi pumapasok sa klase ang bata at nangbubully ng kapwa nya estudyante. Bukod dun, aware din ang mga guro sa mga ginagawa ng student sa school at mga reklamo ng mga kaklase sa kanya.

is the head or superintentendent has the right to collect the residence certificate of the teachers?

hello, i am a teacher in public school(region IV-A), there are so many questions in my mind, what is really our goal, to have quality education or quantity education? why the superintendent wants us to pass the students even they are not qualified? and if we have failed students, they said it's the fault of the teacher? if the students dropped it is also the fault of the teacher? in my opinion why not they go to school, observe the students,specially their behavior, visit their home and talk to the parents.

Wla po bang seminar or orientation about teacher's rights?kasi po puro responsibilities lang ang laging nakastress out sa mga orientations..tsaka sadly po sometimes may abuse of authority po sa mga nsa higher posts..esp. pag bago ang teachers sa public schools.really saddening.kung serious po tyo in letting the teachers know their rights and responsibilities sana po provide us a copy of this..di po kasi lahat may access nito kaya madalas naabuso ang mga teachers ng ibang nakaposition.. :(

Sabi po ninyo-- "There is a section in this act that mandates the head of office to inform the teachers of this code."

ano pong section ang sinasabi ninyo? di ko po makita.... no offense po pero di po ba as professionals (actually kahit layperson lang) obligasyong ng isang guro na alamin ang batas...

di po ba ignorance of the law excuses no one?

ibig niyong sabihin kailangan pa siyang sabihan na.... Ms. teacher... may magna carta po para sa inyo...

again i come in peace... i have nothing against teachers's rights pero... we (I am a licensed teacher as well) are not a special species of human beings na bukod sa publication requirement ay dapat turuan pa na may batas para sa kanya

Gusto ko lang linavvin ang nakalagay na 'Paalala sa Guro' Filipino 1, Patnubay sa Guro:
"Alisunod sa DepEd Order No. 73, s. 2012 ang asignaturang Filipino ay ituturo sa mga mag-aaral mula sa ikalavvang markahan.
Kaya nga't ang Yunit 1 ditto ay para sa ikalaang markahan. Ang Yunit 2 ay sa ikatlong markahan at ang Yunit 3 sa ikaapat na markahan."
Sa pagkakaintindi ko rito ay hindi ituturo ang subject na Filipino sa unang markahan. TAMA PO BA? Pero kami ay may Filipino subject na sa unang markahan pa lamang at hindi ito sinabi sa amin...nabasa ko na lang ito nang bigyan kami ng TG book. noong una kasi Xerox copy lang meron kami at alang ganitong paalala sa kopya namin. kung alang subject na Filipino sa unang markahan, anong subject ang hahabaan ng oras?
