MANILA, Philippines — On World Teachers’ Day, overworked but underpaid educators in the Philippines renewed their call to the government to upgrade their salaries and ease their heavy workloads.

 

The Alliance of Concerned Teachers urged authorities to increase the entry pay rate of public school educators to Salary Grade 15 (around P35,000) and instructors in higher education to Salary Grade 16 (around P38,000).

 

ACT also called for an upgrade of the minimum salary of private school teachers to 30,000.
