Teachers 40 ups appeal for age relaxation

Whoever said you can’t teach old teachers new tricks?

Teachers forty years and above appealed to the Commission on Information and Communication Technology, the lead agency in the Ischool project, to qualify them in the roster of trainees selected from among the sixteen Public High School across the Provinces of Bulacan, Pampanga and Tarlac.

This came up after the Project Manager from Tarlac State University, Mr. Randy Catacutan, who did the site inspection for the identified beneficiary school, informed them about the age ceiling set at 40 by ICT in enlisting trainees in said project.

They argued that they could very well participate in the project and that it is never too late to learn especially that this project will enable them to improve their teaching skills and make their lessons a lot more innovative and easy.

Catacutan already cited, in his September report, this concern to ICT for prompt action and resolution.
