A PIDS study found that aside from the regular full-time teaching load of public school teachers, they also perform several additional administrative or student support roles. These include paperwork on seminars and trainings, and implementation of various government programs such as cash transfer, immunization, deworming, feeding, population census, and election, among others. These roles restrict their time for actual teaching, which affects the overall quality of education in the country. Given these, the study urges the government to address human resource distribution at the Department of Education.
