(JANSEN ROMERO / MANILA BULLETIN) The Alliance of Concerned Teachers (ACT) Philippines and the Teachers’ Dignity Coalition (TDC), in separate statements issued April 18, alleged that DepEd has been prioritizing other things instead of addressing pressing concerns of learners and parents under the distance learning set-up this school year. These groups are referring to the directive issued by DepEd Undersecretary Revsee Escobedo to local field officials to make an inventory of the list of personnel who are members of ACT and TDC. READ: “Hindi namin maintindihan ang DepEd, sa dami ng problemang kinakaharap ng mga guro at sektor ng edukasyon ay mas inaatupag pa nila itong survey para sa profiling sa mga kasapi ng ilang organisasyon (We don’t understand DepEd, with the amount of problems faced by teachers and the education sector, they are even focusing more on this survey for profiling the members of some organizations),” said TDC National Chairperson Benjo Basas.
