VIII. CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT RULES

Classroom Management

4.2.1 At the beginning of the term, the faculty member should orient students in class about the school vision, mission and objectives,
the CHAMPS culture, school policies on the grading and the rating system, use of the library and other
facilities, ISO Certification concepts and objectives, etc.

Issue Status: 4 Revision: 0 Date: 25 July 2018 Approved by: President Page 12 of 16
 Laoag City

4.2.2. Faculty members are responsible for the monitoring and recording of student attendance so that data on enrolment, tardiness,
absences and withdrawal of enrolment from school can be easily and speedily checked. The policy on student attendance should
be strictly enforced to prevent giving credit to students who do not meet the minimum attendance requirements.

In consonance with the provisions of the Manual of Regulations for Private Higher Education, faculty members should be guided
by the policy on student attendance/monitoring of absences, to wit: a student who incurs absences of more than twenty percent
(20%) of the prescribed number of lecture/laboratory class hours before midterm examination, shall be dropped and not be given
credit for the course or subject.

4.2.3. The faculty member is expected to be always adequately prepared before entering his class. Teaching strategies and techniques
should be appropriate to the topic at hand and should promote mutual interaction between the teacher and student/pupils.
Judicious use of audio-visual equipment and other ICT infrastructures is encouraged.

The faculty member should utilize remedial/homework and other related tasks to assist students/pupils who are unusually
incapable to meet the regular requirements of the subject or for the particular year/grade level.

4.2.4. The faculty member should keep in mind that mastery of the subject matter is a pre-requisite for effective teaching. He should
update his knowledge and skills through continuing education, reading related materials, attending seminars and the like.

4.2.5. The faculty member should acquaint himself with the latest methods and techniques of instruction. Creativity is encouraged to
arouse the students’/pupils’ interest and to develop their potential to the fullest.

4.2.6. Requirements for the curriculum such as field trips, seminars, etc. should, as much as possible, be scheduled on weekends or at
the end of the semester or summer so that students/pupils shall not incur absences in their other classes.

4.2.7 Smoking, eating, and selling inside the classroom are prohibited. The faculty member shall ensure that the black/white board is
cleaned and that all lights and fans are turned off before leaving the classroom.
