Educators joined together in a powerful demonstration on Thursday, October 5, 2023, marching from Espana Blvd. to Mendiola Bridge near Malacanang Palace to raise their voices against various concerns and issues within the Marcos administration.
Captured in poignant photographs, these dedicated educators marched steadfastly through heavy rain from Espana Blvd. to Mendiola, proudly brandishing sizable banners.
Their demands included a call for a substantial salary increase, with an entry level set at P50,000, a resounding rejection of profiling, a plea to address critical education shortages, and a demand to abolish confidential funds.
