Cerebro, an edtech company committed to improving the working conditions and resources available to Filipino teachers, announced that their petition has breached the 1000-signature mark. The advocacy aims to empower educators by providing them with optimal working conditions, resources, and support necessary for their own success and that of their students.
According to Cerebro data, Filipino teachers spend a minimum of 400 hours annually outside their paid working hours, leading to chronic problems that affect their personal lives, well-being, and ability to provide quality education. To address this critical issue, Cerebro invites parents, teachers, students, and the public to join their campaign by signing the petition. By lending their voices and showing their commitment to improving the working conditions and resources available to Filipino teachers, individuals and organizations can help create change in the educational system.
Cerebro’s learning management system and digital content library services aim to ease teachers’ workload, allowing them to reclaim valuable time for their personal and social lives while enhancing their ability to personalize instruction, foster engagement, and unlock the full potential of their students. With at least 70% of teachers worldwide feeling overworked and facing mental health difficulties, advocating for optimal working conditions and resources for educators is crucial and urgent.
Said Justine Itugot, Founder and CEO of Cerebro, “Join the call for empowering Filipino teachers by signing the petition today. The petition will be a powerful tool to demonstrate the widespread support for change and will be presented to relevant stakeholders, policymakers, and educational institutions. By championing this cause, we can help enhance educational systems, cultivate a brighter educational journey for every student, and unlock the fuller potential of our country.” To learn more about Cerebro and their advocacy for Filipino teachers, visit cerebro.ph.
