Teachers play a crucial role in improving the quality of the teaching and learning process. They are considered as the most significant part of any educational reform. In support of this role of teachers, DepEd adopted into policy the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST) (DO 42, s 2017), which sets clear expectations of teachers along well-defined career stages.
The alignment of the new Teacher Education curriculum to PPST has lead to various support work in the TEIs. Beginning teachers are trained in the Teacher Education Institutions (TEIs) and suppported in the DepEd schools.
This module supports the development of the Beginning career stage of the PPST by equipping DepEd teachers, who serve as Supervisors for the Beginning Teachers from TEIs, with PPST-based coaching and mentoring program. The module guides DepEd teachers with the basics of coaching and mentoring. It describes the appropriate tools and processes to assess performance, and explains the general system and guidelines aim to render program successful.
