Let’s check your understanding of the PPST domains. Use a

copy of the PPST to match the following scenarios with
the appropriate Domain.

1. Teacher Joy, a Grade 9 adviser, caught one of her learners smoking along a
secluded corridor when going to the comfort room. Teacher Joy asked the
learner to remain in the classroom after the lesson. During the conference
with the learner, Teacher Joy warned the learner to quit smoking at school

2. During the post conference, Mrs. Manuel, being the school head and rater of
teacher-ratee, emphasized that the use of varied learning materials aid learn-
ers’ understanding of the lesson and allow learners to practice the application
of concepts. She also mentioned that varied learning materials also cater to
learners’ different learning styles.

3. Teacher Rolly, a Grade 7 English Teacher, discussed the rules on Subject-Verb

Agreement in his lesson. During group work, his learners were tasked to
make a travel brochure for a particular place. He reminded them to describe
the beauty of the place and include short history while observing correct
subject-verb agreement for their captions.

Key Topic 2: Strands
As you already know from the previous session, domains are
broad conceptual spheres of teaching and learning practices
defined by specific strands in the set of professional
standards for teachers. The domains have varying numbers of strands, e.g. Domain 1 contains seven (7) whereas Domain
2 contains six (6) strands. Figure 1 shows the first three
Strands in Domain 1.

with the requirements of publication law embodied in RA 7041.
DepEd needs to attract good quality teacher-applicants to
respond to the needs of its K to 12 learners and ensure that
quality education will continue to be provided in all public
schools. Quality teachers are needed to produce quality K to 12
learners. Research findings support the growing need to hire
quality teachers as they serve as input to learners’ performance
(Goldhaber, 2015, 64; Kelly, 2012; Kennedy, 2010).
When teachers enter DepEd, the onboarding process scaffolds
their smooth transition to their new environment. This entails a
more detailed understanding about the organization. The
PPST defines teacher quality and guides teachers’
performance, professional development needs and possible career
progression. The PPST supports teachers to achieve their career
goals, and DepEd’s policy guidelines on hiring and promotion
set out the standard processes. DepEd’s Merit and Selection
Plan (MSP), which operates under the principle of
meritocracy and fitness, defines the standard process for
promoting best-fit teaching and non- teaching candidates.
Qualification and competence are the critical bases for
promoting DepEd personnel.

Summary
The PPST is linked with DepEd’s Recruitment, Selection and

Placement (RSP) system and the Merit Selection Plan (MSP). This
ensures that DepEd hires teachers who are qualified to
teach in public schools, are subject matter experts and possess
the core behavioral competencies that are needed to deliver
DepEd outcomes. Both the RSP and the MSP operate on the
principle of merit and fitness. This means that teacher
applicants’ qualifications are assessed based on merit and
not based on who they know or who can help them.

Key Learnings: The PPST is a measure of teacher quality and the RPMS is a standard performance management mechanism
that puts forth a standard performance process for the benefit of teachers and learners.
Summary
In order for teachers to optimize the benefits from RPMS-PPST, they need to internalize the standards and performance man-
agement processes. This entails collaboration with peers and mentors. Since the RPMS cycle is embedded in teachers’ daily job, continuous
feedback is needed to support them until the RPMS processes become teachers’ professional practice.

Session 4 – Role of RPMS-PPST in Teach-
ers’ Learning and Development
Key Topic 1: Strategic Alignment of the RPMS and
L&D with the PPST
The strategic alignment of the RPMS and L&D with the PPST is
very evident in the RPMS-PPST processes. All throughout the
performance cycle, teachers continually monitor their

performance and are able to identify their learning needs.
These L&D needs are documented during Phase IV of the
RPMS cycle where teachers plan their Individual Develop- ment
Plan. The previous year’s Individual Development Plan is Required Task 1: Activity

Coaching and mentoring are sample modalities of L&D that are

Phase I. This shows that workplace learning is put forth as the
most effective L&D modality. Researchers in the field recognize
the value of workplace learning over formal learning (Klein
& Moore, 2016; Kyndt et al., 2016). Continuous improvement on
performance is expected through feedback and monitoring.

Summary
L&D is strategically connected with the RPMS and PPST.
Each cycle of the RPMS is supported by relevant L&D ac-
tivities for teachers. All professional development (PD) for
teachers should be relevant, needs-based and anchored on the
PPST. This strategic alignment of L&D system with RPMS,
PPST and R&R is designed to bring about DepEd’s intended
outcomes.

is part of the RPMS cycle. The purpose is to reward desirable
performance as well as help teachers align their practice with
the expectations articulated in the PPST.

The Civil Service Commission (CSC) issued Memorandum

Circular No. 06, s. 2012 titled Guidelines in the Establish-
ment and Implementation of Agency Strategic Performance
Management System (SPMS). The SPMS is focused on linking
individual performance vis-à-vis the agency’s organizational
vision, mission, and strategic goals. It is envisioned as a
technology composed of strategies, methods, and tools for
ensuring fulfillment of the functions of the offices and its
personnel as well as for assessing the accomplishments. It is
also a mechanism that ensures that the employee achieves the
objectives set by the organization and the organization, on the
other hand, achieves the objectives

The four-stage Performance Management System (PMS) is illustrated in Figure 6.

Key Topic 2: The SPMS Performance Measure
In the first stage of the cycle, or the performance planning,

CSC mandates that performance be measured by the following
categories: Effectiveness/Quality, Efficiency, and
Timeliness.
Category Definition
Effectiveness/Quality The extent to which actual performance compares with targeted performance.
The degree to which objectives are achieved and the extent to which targeted problems are solved.
In management, effectiveness relates to getting the right things done.
Efficiency The extent to which time or resources is used for the intended task or purpose.
Measures whether targets are accomplished with a minimum amount or quantity of waste, expense, or
unnecessary effort.
Timeliness Measures whether the deliverable was done on time based on the requirements of the law and/or clients/
stakeholders.
Time-related performance indicators evaluate such things as project completion deadlines, time
management skills and other time-sensitive expectations.

tion of RPMS thru DepEd
Order No. 2, s. 2015.

Key Topic 4: Guidelines on the Establishment
and Implementation of the RPMS
DepEd Order No. 2, s. 2015, otherwise known as Guide- lines

on the Establishment and Implementation of the Results-
based Performance Management System (RPMS) in the
Department of Education, adopts the Civil Service
Commission’s Strategic Performance Management System
(SPMS) and stipulates the specific mechanisms, criteria
and processes for the performance target setting, monitoring,
evaluation, and development planning (Enclosure p. 3, DepEd
Order No. 2, s. 2015).
This DepEd Order provides for the establishment and im-

plementation of the RPMS in all DepEd schools and offices,
covering all officials and employees, school based and non-
school-based, in the Department holding regular plantilla
positions. For school-based personnel, the RPMS shall be used
only as an appraisal tool, which shall be the basis for training and
development (DepEd Order No. 2, s. 2015).
Similar to the 4-stage SPMS Cycle, the RPMS follows a

4-phase cycle that covers performance for one whole year
(DepEd Order No. 2, s. 2015):

Figure 7. Updated Teachers RPMS Cycle and Timeline

The RPMS Performance Measure
Category Definition
Effectiveness/Quality The extent to which actual performance compares with targeted performance.
The degree to which objectives are achieved and the extent to which targeted problems are solved.
In management, effectiveness relates to getting the right things done.
Efficiency The extent to which time is or resources are used for the intended task or purpose. Measures whether targets
are accomplished with a minimum amount or quantity of waste, expense, or unnecessary effort.
In management, efficiency relates to doing the things right.
Timeliness Measures whether the deliverable was done on time based on the requirements of the law and/or clients/
stakeholders.
Time-related performance indicators evaluate such things as project completion deadlines, time management
skills and other time-sensitive expectations.

Employee development is a continuous learning process that allows an employee to achieve his or her personal
goals within the framework of the organization’s goals. Employee creation is a joint responsibility of the person,
manager, human resources, and the organization.

Summary
• Civil Service Commission (CSC) Memorandum

Circular No. 6, s. 2012 provided for the establishment of
an institutionalized performance management system
in the public service.
• Department of Education (DepEd) Order No. 2, s.
2015 adopted the CSC’s Strategic Performance
Management System (SPMS) as the Results-based
Performance Management System (RPMS) of the
Department.
• The RPMS is done as a cycle of 4 phases. There are
corresponding forms and activities in each phase of the
RPMS Cycle.

Session 1 – The PPST-aligned RPMS

These issues prompted the Bureau of Human Resource and
Organizational Development (BHROD), with RCTQ, to:
• Align the performance assessment tool,
responsive to career stages, with the PPST of Verification (MOV) as evidence of performance
• Focus on the essential duties and • Refine the RPMS evaluation process to ensure
responsibilities of teachers efficiency, fairness and equity in the evaluation
• Set tangible and realizable objectives from the process that places greater premium on quality not

Key Topic 2: Alignment of RPMS with PPST in
the PPST-based IPCRF
The PPST-based IPCRF, as described during the previous

session, is one of the most familiar forms in RPMS. Due to the
clamor of the field to integrate PPST to the other existing
HR systems during the National Validation Study of the PPST.
The RPMS adopted the Domains and Indicators of the PPST
as its Key Result Areas (KRAs) and Objectives,
respectively.
Key elements of the PPST-based IPCRF is shown in Figure 14.

(Source: BHROD Slidedeck for PPST-RPMS Preliminary Orientation SY 2019-2020)

The RPMS Cycle, as discussed in Session 1 of this Module, is composed of four (4) phases, namely:
• Phase I: Performance Planning and Commitment
• Phase II: Performance Monitoring and Coaching
• Phase III: Performance Review and Evaluation
• Phase IV: Performance Rewarding and Development Planning
Table 1. The RPMS Cycle Phases

These phases happen in one school year for school-based personnel, including teachers like you. The cycle is designed to gauge teacher
performance against the PPST and help them in their professional development. Take note that all content of the RPMS Cycle in Figure
1 adheres to the PPST-aligned RPMS.
Each phase of the cycle happens in a specific timeline within the rating period and requires the accomplishment of specific
activities using PPST-based tools, as shown in the matrix below:

Session 4 – The PPST-based RPMS Tools and Processes

Key Topic 1: The RPMS Tools
The RPMS tools are the major PPST-based tools that teachers need to be familiar with. There are two (2) RPMS Tools intended for 2
career stages:
1. RPMS Tool for Teachers I-III (Proficient Teachers)
2. RPMS Tool for Master Teachers I-IV (Highly Proficient Teachers)
See Figure 17.
Parts of the RPMS Tools
As outlined in the second session of this Module, the RPMS is aligned with PPST as seen in the RPMS Tools. Figure 17A shows the
alignment of the RPMS with the PPST through the KRAs and Objectives, and Figure 17B highlights the Means of Verification
(MOV) and the Performance Indicators.
Key Topic 2: The RPMS Associated Tools

There are other tools that are used in the PPST-aligned RPMS
(Figure 18). These tools generate data pertaining to teachers’
performance. The data are then utilized purposefully and
constructively to support the Learning and Development and
Professional Development of teachers.

The COT Rubric addresses the continuum of practice stip- ulated
in the PPST. There are nine (9) rubric levels for each classroom-
observable indicator. Levels 1-5 capture the Beginning career
stage, Levels 3-7 capture the Proficient career stage, Levels
4-8 capture the Highly Proficient career stage, and Levels 5-9
capture the Distinguished career stage (Figure 20).

The Classroom Observation Process
The Self-Assessment Tool

The Self-Assessment Tool (SAT) is an RPMS associated
tool that helps teachers reflect on the different performance
indicators related to their professional work. The

results of the self-assessment will guide teachers on which
indicators they must improve and the areas where they need
coaching and mentoring.
There are two (2) SAT-RPMS (see Figure 21):
1. SAT-RPMS for Teacher I-III (Proficient Teachers)
2. SAT-RPMS for Master Teacher I-IV (Highly Proficient
Teachers)
Figure 21: The two SAT-RPMS

There is an electronic version of the SAT for RPMS called e-
SAT or electronic Self-Assessment Tool (see Figure 7). This
system supports schools in analyzing school-wide SAT data of
teachers to help plan for teachers’ professional development.
DepEd needs the summary results of teachers’ e-SAT data
to gain an overall picture of the teachers’ strengths and needs. This summary helps in the

preparation of the school and division development plans (see
Figure 8) and other various development interventions in
preparation for the current school year.
Figure 23: Preparation of school and division development plans
The data collection system enables the collection and sub-

mission of RPMS data across governance levels and aims to
The IPCR Data Collection and Consolidation Forms establish baseline data on teachers’ proficiency level on
the PPST indicators. This system also ensures that the results of RPMS data are used properly and efficiently, as follows:

Figure 24: Use of results of RPMS data (RPMS IPCRF Data Collection and Consolidation System)
Key Topic 24: PPST-based RPMS Support Materials
Refer to your COT rating sheets, SAT assessment results, and IPCRF-Development Plan, if you have any. Reflect on
your teaching performance based on the results that these forms reflect. Briefly discuss what you have discovered.
Summary

• The RPMS tools are the major PPST-based tools
Figure 25: Support materials
There are a lot of support materials developed by RCTQ and BHROD to supplement all tools and associated tools for
the PPST-aligned RPMS. Some of these support materials can be seen in Figure

Session 5 – Developing Lesson Plans
as Quality Evidence for RPMS
Preliminary Activity
Choose a lesson plan which you have previously crafted.

Enumerate all parts and describe what you have entered on each
part.

Key Topic: When does a lesson plan become
a quality evidence for RPMS?
As seen in the RPMS Tools, one of the Means of
Verification (MOVs) to support the COT Rating Sheet or Inter-
Observer Agreement Form for Classroom-Observable RPMS
Objec- tives is a Lesson Plan (Figure 1). For example, in School
Years 2018-2019 and 2019-2020, a Lesson Plan may be provided teachers using the Proficient Tool. For teachers using the
for RPMS Objectives 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, and 10 for Highly Proficient Tool, a Lesson Plan may be provided for
RPMS Objectives 1, 3, 4, and 7. For the next School Years, there
will be different sets of objectives and teachers will just have to
check which ones could be supported by a lesson plan.
Figure 26: MOV for KRA 1

To support the COT rating sheet or inter-observer agreement
form as Main MOV, a lesson plan becomes a valid and observable indicator (or RPMS objective) can be found in the
acceptable MOV if: PPST Resource Package. The samples were developed based on
the guidelines on daily lesson preparation (DepEd Order No. 42,

Optional Task: Activity
From the lesson plan/exemplar you provided in the Intro- ductory
Activity, which portions demonstrate/highlight COT Indicator 1?
Elaborate.

Summary/Key Learning
• Preparing for lessons through the Daily Lesson Log
(DLL) or Detailed Lesson Plan (DLP) provides
teachers with an opportunity for reflection on what
learners need to learn, how learners learn, and how
best to facilitate the learning process.
• A detailed Lesson Plan (DLP) is a teacher’s
“roadmap” for a lesson. It contains a detailed
description of the steps a teacher will take to teach a
particular topic. A typical DLP contains the following
parts: Objectives, Content, Learning Resources,
Procedures, Remarks and Reflection.
• Lesson plans are recognized Means of Verification
for classroom-observable RPMS objectives in the
RPMS.
Required Task 2: Activity

Using either a lesson plan prepared by your mentor (recom-
mended) or the lesson plan/lesson exemplar you provided, check
which COT Indicators (or RPMS Objectives) are present.
Elaborate on your findings. If an indicator is not present, is it
possible to have it present in the lesson plan? How?
