Sec. 19. Periodic Merit Examination of Teachers. â€” To encourage continuing professional growth and development and to provide additional basis for merit promotion, in addition to their performance rating, teachers may take an oral and written examination at least once in five (5) years as basis for merit promotion. In taking this examination, no fee shall be required.

Sec. 20. Failure to Pass the Merit Examination. â€” If a teacher fails to pass the merit examination, he or she shall be allowed to take the examination for a second time. Should he or she fail to pass the merit examination for the second time, then he or she shall be required to take a DECS accredited refresher course or program before being allowed to retake the examination.

Failure of any permanent teacher to pass the merit examination shall not, however, be used as a ground for his/her dismissal or demotion.

Has this been implemented? or is this mandatory for all teachers?

Has this been implemented? >> yes in view of RA 7836

or is this mandatory for all teachers?>> it should not be mandatory.. as you read the line "teachers MAY take an oral and written examination", the means, you are not obliged to take the merit exam..
