THE Teachers\u2019 Dignity Coalition (TDC)\u2013Bicol has expressed support for TV host Vice Ganda\u2019s recent remark about an alleged \u201cbulok\u201d school in Sorsogon.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to TDC-Bicol, what Vice Ganda said reflects the grim reality faced by many public school teachers and students across the country.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cTotoo ang sinabi ni Vice Ganda. Ang ipinakita niya ay repleksyon ng araw-araw na kalbaryo ng mga guro at mag-aaral, hindi lang sa Sorsogon, hindi lamang sa Bicol kundi sa maraming paaralan sa buong bansa,” \u00a0said Arnel Adtoon, spokesperson of TDC\u2013Bicol and a teacher in Legazpi City.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Maraming guro at estudyante ang nagtitiis sa masisikip, mainit at binabahang classroom o tumutulong bubong, bukod pa sa kakulangan sa learning materials. Hindi ito dapat ituring na pang-iinsulto, kundi panawagan sa pamahalaan na gampanan ang tungkulin nito sa edukasyon,\u201d \u00a0 he added.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to Adtoon, the lack of learning materials, dilapidated classrooms, and inadequate facilities continue to hamper the delivery of quality education in public schools.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cAng mga kakulangang ito ang dahilan kung bakit nahihirapan ang mga guro na maibigay ang de-kalidad na pagtuturo,\u201d he explained. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cMay mga pagkakataon pa nga na mga guro ang gumagastos mula sa sariling bulsa para lang matiyak na tuloy ang pag-aaral ng mga bata. Kaya kung may mga donasyong dumarating mula sa mga pribadong personalidad o organisasyon, malaking tulong na ito sa paaralan,\u201d he continued.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The TDC-Bicol spokesperson lamented that a huge portion of the national budget is lost to corruption and inefficiency, depriving the Filipino people, especially the poor taxpayers, of the services they rightfully deserve. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cHabang hirap na hirap sa operasyon ang mga public school, patuloy namang nilalamon ng korapsyon ang pondo ng bayan. Imbes na silid-aralan, mga aklat at sahod ng guro, mas binibigyang-prayoridad ang mga flood control project na marami ay nauuwi sa ghost project, \u201d Adtoon said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

TDC\u2013Bicol called on the government to fulfill its constitutional duty to fund and support public education.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWalang anumang uri ng charity o donasyon ang makapapalit sa tungkulin ng gobyerno na tiyakin na ang bawat batang Pilipino ay nag-aaral sa ligtas, maayos at marangal, hindi bulok na paaralan. Kaya ang unang hakbang ay tiyaking napupunta sa dapat puntahan ang pondo ng bayan,\u201d Adtoon said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Aside from the immediate fulfillment of the needs of the education sector and the effective prosecution of crooks in government, TDC\u2013Bicol also urged the government to grant the \u20b115,000 across-the-board salary increase for public school teachers. <\/strong><\/p>\n
