X. Classroom Management Rules

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.
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.
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. 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.
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.
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.
