classroom observation.

Frequently Asked Questions
and Possible Scenarios
How to determine and choose between the two
classroom observation options for teachers?

The scheduling options for the classroom observation shall be

agreed upon by the teacher and the rater (observer).
Determining which between the options is feasible shall be the
discretion of the teacher and observer, taking into account
factors such as class schedules, number of teachers to be
observed, and other relevant considerations.
Given that there are Options 1 and 2 for the classroom
observation, what will happen if the teacher does
not meet the required COI?

Teacher rating shall get the lowest rating in the rubric level
(For example, for Proficient Teachers, lowest rating in the classroom
observation is 3, while for Highly Proficient the lowest rating is 4.)

The lowest rating would mean Not observed/not met indicators

in the classroom observation
The effectivity of guidelines is starting 4th Quarter.
Can teachers show MOV (e.g., minutes of consultative meeting
with community stakeholders) conducted in
previous quarters?

For COIs For NCOIs

Classroom observations shall Any MOVs across quarters
be conducted in 4th quarter shall be valid and accepted
What are the acceptable MOVs for teachers who transferred
from one school to another mid-school year?
Who validates their MOVs?

● The acceptable MOVs are contained in the Figure 7 and

Figure 8 of DM 017 s. 2025

● The assigned rater/s of the current school shall validate the MOVs
presented for purposes of evaluation.

● Approval/signatures from the previous rater shall not be required.

Should we submit physical or digital copies of MOVs?
Are there specific formats we should follow
(e.g., PDF, scanned copies)?

● Submission of Portfolio shall not be required.

● Teachers shall ONLY present to the rater any available relevant

MOV from their daily teaching activities. Raters shall
immediately evaluate and rate the MOVs presented, then return
the document to the teacher.

● Physical or digital documents can be presented, depending on

its original format.
I have two newly-hired teachers assigned in our
school just this January 2025, shall they be required
to submit IPCRF for this SY?

Yes.

Per CSC MC 6, s. 2012, personnel who have already met the

required minimum rating period of 90 days in their current
position shall be required to accomplish and submit the IPCRF.
Other Questions from the
Live Q&A Session
Does the reduction from 4 to 1 or 2 full period
classroom observations apply to the following school
years, meaning there will only be 1 or 2 full period
classroom observations for the school year?

The reduction of the required classroom observations from 4 to 1

or 2 shall only be applicable in SY 2024-2025. A separate
guidelines shall be issued for the next 3-year cycle of PMES for
Teachers.
Is the assessment of NCOIs done during the post-
con, or can the rater schedule a separate date as
long as it's not during the year-end? The instructions
state that NCOIs should be rated promptly.

NCOI assessment may be conducted during the post-conference or

scheduled at any time within the fourth quarter, as agreed upon by
the rater and ratee.
However, the assessment of lesson plan for Objective 2 (PPST
Indicator 1.2.2 for Proficient Teacher) can already be completed
before the actual observation, upon the teacher's submission of the
lesson plan.
Are teachers on maternity leave for the entire period
of 4th Quarter required to accomplish the IPCRF?

No. Teachers who are on maternity leave for the entire duration of 4th
Quarter shall no longer be required to submit IPCRF.
