The Philippine Professional Standard for Teachers (PPST) plays a significant role in the
teaching learning process. It captures the teacher’s quality requirements in the K-12 programs.
It gives focus on the skills and strategies that facilitate the teaching and learning process. It
incorporates the effective and appropriate use of information and communication technology for
both teachers and students. It gives educators knowledge that for them to be considered quality
teachers, they should know what to teach and how to teach the lessons to the students.

PPST has seven domains, namely;

- Content Knowledge and Pedagogy
- Learning Environment
- Diversity of Learners

beginning to distinguished practice.

domains, strands, and indicators that provides measures of professional learning, competent
practice, and effective engagement. This set of standards provides information of what teachers
should know, be able to do, and value to achieve competent, improved student learning
outcomes and eventually quality education. It serves as a basis of professional accountability

and professional development PPST helps to have quality and effective teachers here in the
Philippines, when it comes to teaching. It allow them to recognize the importance of having a
critical understanding of the application of theories and principles of teaching and learning.

are different from each other. They differ in their interest, learning styles. They need to
incorporate teaching practices that are differentiated to be able to meet the needs of learners,
especially the disable learners. The teachers should apply a variety of assessment tools and
strategies in monitoring, evaluating, documenting and reporting learner’s needs progress and
