THE NEXT Education secretary should be a career educator with extensive experience as a teacher instead of a political appointee, a congressman said on Thursday.
“I humbly suggest to the search committees in Malacañang looking for a new secretary that they choose a real educator with a track record of success as a public school teacher in basic education,” Manila Rep. Joel R. Chua said in a statement.
Vice-President Sara Duterte-Carpio on Wednesday resigned from her position as Education secretary and as vice chairperson of the government’s anti-communist task force. — Kenneth Christiane L. Basilio
