DepEd promotes 47 OIC field officers
The Philippine Star|November 11, 2024
Forty-seven field officers of the Department of Education have been sworn in as part of the DepEd's efforts to end the culture of leaving deserving candidates as officers-in-charge (OICs) instead of promoting them to the post in an official capacity, Education Secretary Sonny Angara said over the weekend.

Angara said 22 newly appointed schools division superintendents and 25 assistant schools division superintendents took their oaths of office last week at the DepEd central office in Pasig. Education Undersecretary Wilfredo Cabral, who heads the agency's human resources, said the DepEd has had a culture of allowing deserving candidates to languish in acting capacities.

"There are some who waited for 10 years before being promoted. So we have a culture of OIC in the DepEd, and it's one of the issues that the secretary is currently addressing," Cabral said.
