The Department of Education (DepEd) said on Friday that it is currently reviewing classroom observation policies, following the death of a public school teacher during the scheduled evaluation process.
“We’re ordering a review of the policy. Actually, that’s under review because that’s the complaint of the teachers that sometimes the environment has too much pressure,” Education Secretary Juan Edgardo “Sonny” M. Angara told reporters in an interview.
“That’s why we didn’t make it a sole basis. Before, it was the sole basis, and the visits were a surprise. We made it scheduled so the monitor, reviewer, and teacher can discuss their availability,” he added.
