1. All school principals (principals, head teachers and teachers-in-charge) should submit to the schools division superintendent the duly certified data on the enrolment by grade/year and the number of teachers, categorized into nationally paid (i.e. with regular plantilla items) and locally paid.
2. The schools division superintendents shall prepare a list of schools needing additional teachers according to priority, one for elementary and another for the secondary level. The listing should be based on the Form 3 for SY 2001-2002.
3. The school principal accepts application letters of teacher applicants. The following documents should be submitted together with the application letter:
a) A photocopy of the LET/Teachers Board Rating and PRC registration/license
b) A photocopy of the transcript of records of his/her schooling
c) Service record, if one has teaching experience
d) Duly accomplished CS Form 212 in 2 copies with the latest 2" x 2" ID picture
4. Requests for transfers should also be submitted to the school principal of the school where the teacher wishes to be transferred.
5. The school principal shall create a committee of five to interview the teacher applicants within two days from receipt of their application letter. The composition of the committee to assist the principal in screening the candidates shall depend on the type of school as follows:
5.1 For central elementary schools and non-central elementary schools headed by either a principal or a head teacher, or teacher-in-charge committee of five shall be selected by the Principal from among the Grade Level Chairmen who are Master Teachers based on subject area concentrations, competence and visible creditable demonstrated capability.
5.2 For elementary schools with six teachers or less (i.e. with no school head), the district supervisor shall identify the committee of five to take care of the entire group of schools of this type. Contiguous or proximate schools shall be clustered to complete the group of five. The district supervisor shall perform the role of the school principal under these guidelines.

The school principal shall head the committee. Alternatively, small schools shall be attached to the parent school with department heads.
