Instructions on Teacher Hiring for SY 2022-2023
In preparation for the opening of classes for School Year (SY) 2022-2023, the schools division offices (SDOs) are expected to ensure that all DepEd schools will have an adequate teacher workforce.
In relation to this, the schools division superintendents (SDSs), as the appointing authority, shall appoint the right people for the right job at the right time, by strictly adhering to the principles of merit, fitness, competence, equal opportunity, transparency, and accountability. The recruitment, selection, and appointment (RSA) of new teachers shall be done judiciously and expeditiously. Thus, the SDOs shall observe the following:
Achieve 100% utilization rate in terms of filling-up of newly-created and existing teaching items by the end of August 2022 with the following considerations:
- Strict observance of the prescribed RSA processes and parameters in accordance with the existing hiring guidelines; and
- Coordination with the beneficiaries under special hiring arrangements by virtue of Republic Act (RA) Nos. 10612 and 7687 with the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) and Sa Pinas, Ikaw ang Ma’am/ Sir (SPIMS) Employment Program with the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) to inform them of the schedule of demonstration teaching, interview, and the documentary requirements needed to be submitted.
SDOs shall be guided by the anticipated effectivity of the provisions of Part V(E) of DepEd Order No. 019, s. 2022 or The Department of Education Merit Selection Plan anchored on the Civil Service Commission Memorandum Circular (CSC MC) No. 014, s. 2018 otherwise known as the 2017 Omnibus Rules on Appointments and Other Human Resource Actions, Revised 2018.
Faithful to the Department’s commitment to merit-based hiring, teacher-applicants are advised that the selection and appointment of teachers in DepEd are strictly based on the criteria and parameters stipulated in the hiring guidelines. As a non-partisan organization, the Department may accept and acknowledge endorsements from any source/proponent; however, these endorsements shall not, in any way, be given extra points or credit in the selection process, nor shall guarantee priority in hiring. This is consistent with the equal opportunity principle that DepEd as an organization is committed to implementing in order to select the most qualified candidates based on their qualifications and competence.
Further, the appointing authorities, Human Resource Merit Promotion and Selection Board (HRMPSB), and Human Resource Management OIlicers (HRMOs) shall uphold the MSP principles, as follows:
- Put premium on merit, fitness, and competence of applicants to ensure that those who will be appointed have the necessary qualifications that match the competency requirements of the position to be filled in order to perform the duties and responsibilities efficiently and effectively;
- Remain accountable for the selection of employees in adherence to the basic principles stated herein, to explain, clarify, and justi$ human resource actions, disclose the results in a transparent manner and be responsible for
decision/s made; - At all times, ensure that all relevant, reliable, and timely information on recruitment, selection, and placement be available to the public; and
- Strictly observe non-discrimination activities, to allow any applicant within or outside DepEd to apply for a position, regardless of age, sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity, civil status, disability, religion, ethnicity, or political beliefs.

- ii.

I am just wondering about my ept points, in the memo it states that we could retain our point this year, am I required to retake my Ept? I took it two years ago. I am one of the rqa last year in our district. I want to reapply this year, what should I do? I hope someone could answer this.
Hello ma’am Camila,
EPT result has an expiration/validity. However, it will still depend on your division. Kindly ask them or wait for their memorandum regarding this matter. They might require all applicants in the RQA to submit a letter of intent to retain their points.
