PROPOSAL ON LAC SESSIONS OF RPMS-PPST FOR SY 2020-2021

March 9, 10, 12, April 15 and June 30, 2021
9:00 AM – 12:00 NN

I. RATIONALE

The Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST) has been developed
and nationally validated and was signed into policy by Department of Education (DepEd)
Secretary Maria Leonor Briones through Dep Ed Order No. 42, s. 2017. Additionally, in
the context of RPMS Tools; the KRAs capture the Domains of the PPST – a document
that defines a teacher quality in the country. Just recently, a Memorandum DM-PHROD-
2021-0010, which entitled Guidelines on the Implementation of RPMS for SY 2020-2021
was issued to provide comprehensive guidelines to all DepEd schools in the
implementation of the SY 2020-2021 RPMS in the time of COVID-19.
As the learning delivery changes due to the pandemic, so do the duties of teachers
to their learners and the performance expected of them. Although there was a nationwide
orientation of the PPST last January, still, Master teachers need to understand fully how
they would rate proficient teachers. This is also true with proficient teachers. They need
to understand each objective on how are they going to get high score.
Mayamot National High School – Senior High School Department conducted
Self-Assessment on RPMS for teachers and Master teachers this SY 2020-2021 in the
time of COVID-19. Based from the results, out of 11 priority indicators for Proficient &
Highly Proficient teachers, 2 objectives have very high priority areas and 5 objectives
have high priority areas to be addressed for Highly Proficient teachers. While there are 3
objectives with very high priority areas and 5 objectives with high priority areas to be
addressed for proficient teachers. It was found out that Proficient and Highly Proficient
Teachers have almost the same areas that need to be improved. These are objectives 1.3
of Content Knowledge and Pedagogy, Objectives 2.1 to 2.3 of Diversity of learners &
Assessment and Reporting, objective 3.2 of Curriculum and Planning, objective 4.1 to 4.3
of Community Linkages and professional Engagement & Personal Growth and
Professional Development.
With the abovementioned findings, it is high time that the department should have
series of LAC Sessions in order to address the said challenges. In line with the
implementation of Republic Act No. 10533, or the Enhanced Basic Education Act of
2013, the Department of Education (DepEd) issues the enclosed policy on The Learning
Action Cell (LAC) as a K to 12 Basic Education Program School-Based Continuing
Professional Development Strategy for the Improvement of Teaching and Learning.
In this policy, the DepEd institutionalizes Learning Action Cells (LACs) that aim to

develop and support successful teachers by nurturing their knowledge, attitudes, and
competencies in terms of curriculum, instruction, and assessment in their work stations.
Since the quality of learning is contingent on quality teaching, enhancing teacher quality
becomes of utmost importance for the long term and sustainable nation-building. Thus,
these series of LAC Sessions which can also be seen in the school’s SIP/AIP, support the
DepEd’s vision, mission, and strategic goals of ensuring teachers with capacity-building
activities to attain quality, relevant, and complete Basic Education for learners. From the
said LAC Sessions, teachers and Master teachers will have collaborations on how their
performance be improved better. It will be a combination of virtual and limited face to
face meeting. Those who are sick or with pre-existing health condition will just attend
virtually. The first 2 LAC sessions will be for 17 Highly Proficient Teachers. While the
third session is for Proficient Teachers. In the third session, the 17 Raters or Highly
Proficient teachers will be divided by 4 groups. This means that in every group there will
only be 11 members. And these 4 groups will conduct LAC Sessions simultaneously at
the school in 4 separate rooms. The fourth LAC Session will be for common strengths
and weaknesses after the Mid-year review. This is also the right time to discuss to ratees
their needs in order for them to improve better. The last session will be for the discussion
of the listed common developmental needs after the performance evaluation.
