The Department of Education announced that 93,000 public school staff—including teachers, administrators, and support workers—will receive salary adjustments in a move aimed at improving morale and retaining talent. The pay increases, which vary by rank and experience, are part of a broader effort to address long‑standing wage disparities and to align salaries with inflation and cost of living. DepEd officials said the adjustments will be implemented in phases, with the first tranche expected to take effect next month, and stressed that the changes are a key component of the ministry’s commitment to better educational outcomes.
