Sen. Win Gatchalian wants review of the Magna Carta for Public School Teachers - Manila Bulletin

Gatchailan said it is imperative to check if the law seeking to improve the living and working conditions of public school teachers are fully implemented.

For instance, he said the law mandates that public school teachers are entitled to free and compulsory medical examination before they take up teaching but not all public school teachers are entitled to it. “Sa gagawin nating pagsusuri, nais nating matukoy kung paano pa natin mapapaigting ang pagpapatupad ng Magna Carta for Public School Teachers, upang masiguro nating lubos na napapangalagaan ang kapakanan ng mga guro ,” he stressed.

He said it is important to check whether public school teachers are entitled to additional compensation if their work exceeds six hours a day and if they accomplish tasks outside their normal duties.
