DepEd Sorsogon City is bigger after rationalization

Sorsogon City Division has already filled up the additional 20  plantilla positions  as the result of the rationalization. This was bared by Mrs. Beverly R. Monje , Administrative Officer V, when asked about the status of the rationalization implementation in DepEd Sorsogon City. Monje  said originally the division has only 42 plantilla positions but because of the rationalization program of DepEd , additional positions were raised to 62 items.

Meanwhile, after one year of implementation of the rationalization, Sorsogon City Division becomes bigger now.

Dr. Nympha D. Guemo, OIC- Schools Division Superintendent said Sorsogon City is very lucky because the division is categorized as medium division. Based on the staffing pattern, this category has ample technical people who will work on school governance and quality education. This situation is favorable to Sorsogon City which is composed of 74 schools only.Guemo added that we have no reason not to excel in all aspects because we are equipped with technical  and financial resources.

Some changes that are evident in rationalization are the separation of academic supervision and the governance and operation of schools . Academic concerns are now assigned to CID or Curriculum Implementation Division while the schools governance and operation are tasked to SGOD or Schools Governance and Operation Division.

Education Supervisors and Public Schools District  Supervisors who were previously  holding 2 functions are now exclusively concentrating on academic supervision while the governance and operation of schools  are now assigned to specialists who are new players  in the rationalization.

This early, rationalization in DepEd is creating favorable changes in favor of the learners.
