00:00We want to see more of our teachers grow, succeed, and advance in your profession.
00:07Hence, we promote the continuous learning and professional development.
00:12From 2022 to 2025, over 607,574 teachers have attended various professional development and training programs.
00:26We also give our teachers more time to focus on your students.
00:31We have reduced the paperwork required of our teachers from 174 forms to 75, with only 5 requiring regular completion.
00:43This means more time for you to prepare lessons, to teach our students, and to guide them.
00:50Earlier this morning, we turned over 209 laptops to 10 public schools in the Gupan City.
01:01These laptops will equip our school personnel with the tools that they need to carry out their duties more efficiently.
01:09At the same time, today is an important milestone for our newly hired SCAs.
01:14As we work to enhance the quality of education, you will help strengthen counseling and mental health services in our
01:21schools,
01:22as well as ensure that our students receive the support that they need.
01:26As part of our effort to make each learner safe, heard, and cared for, we have expanded the National Learner's
01:35Telesafe Contact Center Helpline,
01:37and we have strengthened school policies and coordinated action against bullying.
01:43Sa patuloy natin ating pagsisika, umaasa akong dadalhin ninyo sa inyong tungkulin ang parehong sipag,
01:51syaga, at dedikasyon na nagdala sa inyo sa araw na ito.
01:56Together, let us build a bagong Pilipinas where our educators can grow,
02:02where every child has a chance to fulfill their potential.
02:05Again, congratulations to everyone.
02:09Maraming, maraming salamat sayin.
