President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. called on legislators from both houses of Congress to continue working together with the executive branch to improve people’s lives and to craft laws based on foresight as he led Monday the ceremonial signing at the Palace of the Kabalikat sa Pagtuturo Act.
The law authorizes an increase in the annual teaching allowance for public school teachers. According to the provisions of the new law, the teaching allowance will increase from P5,000 to P10,000 beginning in school year 2025-2026. The newly-approved law represents the most significant increase to date. Public school teachers have historically received allowances for their actual teaching expenses, which began from P100 in 1988 to P5,000 by 2021.
