An additional 3,329 repeaters demonstrated resilience and commitment to their chosen profession. Similarly, in the secondary level, 41,787 first-timers joined the ranks of licensed teachers, alongside 8,752 repeaters who persevered in their pursuit of excellence.

BPT Leadership

The Board for Professional Teachers, under the stewardship of Chairman Dr. Rosita L. Navarro, Vice Chairman Dr. Paz I. Lucido, and Members Dr. Paraluman R. Giron and Dr. Nora M. Uy, oversaw the meticulous examination process. Their expertise and dedication ensured the integrity and fairness of the assessment, upholding the standards of the teaching profession.

Awaiting Final Determination

While the vast majority of examinees have received their results, the PRC has withheld the results of 36 individuals pending a final determination of potential violations of examination rules and regulations. This measure underscores the commission’s commitment to maintaining the highest ethical standards in the licensure process.

The release of the LEPT results comes at a critical juncture for Philippine education. As the country grapples with challenges such as learning gaps exacerbated by the pandemic, curriculum reforms, and the need for enhanced teacher training, the influx of newly licensed teachers represents a vital resource.

“These new teachers are entering the profession at a time when their skills and dedication are needed more than ever,” said Dr. Eleanor Reyes, a professor of education at the University of the Philippines. “They have the potential to be agents of change, driving innovation and improving learning outcomes for Filipino students.”

However, experts caution that licensure is just the first step. Ongoing professional development, mentorship programs, and supportive school environments are essential to ensure that these teachers thrive and contribute effectively to the education system.

The successful LEPT examinees now face the task of securing employment in public or private schools. As they embark on their teaching careers, they carry the hopes and aspirations of a nation that recognizes the transformative power of education.
