How a DepEd teacher can be easily promoted
It is every individual teacher’s dream to get promoted immediately in his/her post. Promotion is both a symbol of being efficient and active in your field of work. Promotion as well is advancement in a position which will raise your salary. Today, I will give you the different ways on how to get promoted in DepEd easily.
1. EDUCATION
Your four years of bachelor’s degree is given, but it is not enough. You have to elevate your educational status to the highest level. In other words, you need to be a master’s degree holder, then after which you also have to finish your doctor’s degree in education for a much higher position.
2. LENGTH OF EXPERIENCE
The longer you are in the field of teaching, the more chances of getting into a higher position. Seniority in DepEd is still actively practiced, therefore each individual teacher should wait at least 3 years in service before applying for a rank.
3. TRAINING AND MORE TRAINING
Training and seminars are very important in a teacher’s life. The more training and seminars you attended, the more you gain knowledge. In addition to prior knowledge are also the certificates that come right after every training/seminar, therefore you have to make sure to secure these pieces of papers as this will be your passport for promotion.
4. COORDINATORSHIP AND OTHER ANCILLARY DESIGNATIONS
Your principal or school head will give you designations and coordinatorship, therefore don’t complain about having it, instead perform your duties properly. Your designations will help you get promoted.
5. RESEARCH
Do more research and help improve your school. Research is essential in developing your school and as well as will help you get the position you dream of.
6. SCHOOL PROJECTS
School projects are the reasons why many teachers get promoted immediately. For instance, projects like a school bazaar or school canteen will help you gain more years of experience as well as will aid your application for promotion.
7. BEING AN EVENT OFFICIAL/COACH
Coaching is enjoyable yet is also helpful in getting a promotion. Coaching and officiating games during school to school meets are helpful enough.
8. TECHNOLOGY ADVANCEMENT
Nowadays, teachers should be techy. Use technology to your advantage in getting a promotion.
9. SCHOOL RECORD
Everything mentioned above is nothing if you don’t get a clean school record. Your principal will help you if you are a teacher of good work. Avoid work troubles if possible and mind your own business to avoid chaos with anybody.
10. HUMILITY AND GOOD LEADERSHIP
Above all, humility at all costs should be your partner. Without humility, you will never get what you wanted. Humility comes hand in hand with good leadership.
I hope that these mentioned ways will be your guide through your dream promotion. Remember that patience is a virtue and if you wait for your turn, it will be given in due time. – Clea | Helpline PH
