Education Ministry releases 4-month salary of newly hired teachers in Maguindanao
COTABATO CITY – Ministry of Basic, Higher, and Technical Education (MBHTE) has started to release the June-September salaries of 1,104 newly hired teachers from the divisions of Maguindanao I and II.On October 14-16, first batch to receive their salaries are
the 538 newly hired teachers from Maguindanao I, while salaries for the
566 teachers from Maguindanao II will be released on October 19-21.
MBHTE also provided additional cash allowance amounting to P4,000.00 to each of the newly hired teachers.
The
ministry said the salaries were delayed due to the challenges posed by
the coronavirus pandemic. The mandatory working arrangement in the
ministry, as a response to contain the virus, caused a slow progress in
the release of the salaries.
Jion Mohamad, 27, a
kindergarten teacher, said: “Masaya po kami na natanggap na namin ang
aming sahod kahit delayed, kahit papaano nakapag-save kami kaya malaking
tulong pa rin po ito.”
Mohamad is a newly hired
teacher from Madia Elementary School in Datu Saudi Ampatuan, Maguindanao
I. Mohamad also said he was grateful that MBHTE has allocated
Maintenance and Other Operating Expenses (MOOE) fund for his school’s
district which they used in procuring supplies necessary for reproducing
students’ learning materials.
Education Minister
Mohagher Iqbal, who led Wednesday’s activity, stressed the importance of
continuing children’s education despite the pandemic.
“Magturo
tayo ng mabuti, alagaan natin ‘yung mga kabataan. At itaas natin ang
kalidad ng edukasyon dito sa Bangsamoro region,” Iqbal told the
teachers, adding that the ministry is always committed to support them.
Furthermore,
Iqbal said “We are expecting to hire around 3,000 teachers coming from
the other provinces in order to maximize the teaching force of the
education ministry.”
MBHTE has already started the
hiring of new teachers for the island provinces of Tawi-Tawi and
Basilan, to be followed by Sulu and Lanao del Sur.
Meanwhile,
Minister Iqbal encouraged the provisional teachers, who were affected
by ‘cease and desist order’ issued by MBHTE, to pass the Licensure
Examination for Teachers (LET) for them to be eligible and get a
permanent position.
“The ministry ensures the
automatic change of their status from provisional to permanent effective
immediately after passing the licensure exam,” Iqbal has earlier said.
