THE LICENSURE EXAM FOR TEACHERS
Implemented by law as per RA 7836 otherwise known as Philippines Teachers Professionalization Act of 1994, the Licensure Exam for Teachers or LET is one of the reforms of the Philippine government for enhancing teacher professionalism. It aims to determine whether prospective teachers have acquired professional competencies prior to granting them a permit to teach. Since its implementations in 1996, the number of LET passers remains low at an average of approximately 10% to 35% each year. It is the most taken board exam and yet unfortunately it has the highest attrition rate. In 2019 alone (March and September results combined), only 48,632 out of 164,494 or 29.56% passed the LET for elementary while 76,450 out of 222,346 or 34.38% made it to the LET secondary level. Over the years the numbers have become predictable. Such is the feat of our teacher hopefuls!
