The Department of Education (DepEd) announced that approximately 140,000 teaching positions will be available next year through the Expanded Career Progression System for Public School Teachers, following the signing of its Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR). This initiative, outlined in Executive Order No. 174, aims to provide more career advancement opportunities for teachers. President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. emphasized the importance of teacher development in his recent State of the Nation Address, promising that no teacher will retire at the entry-level position. The new system will offer promotions in both teaching and administrative tracks, including positions like Teacher IV to Teacher VII and various school principal roles.
