00:03 A concerned citizen has filed a complaint against you for a waiver
00:06 that a teacher is asking you to sign in Rizal Province
00:09 to allow students to be disciplined.
00:12 Is that considered legal?
00:15 Let's find out with your Kapusa Action Man.
00:17 [music]
00:22 As a parent, will you sign the discipline waiver
00:26 that your child has requested from the teacher?
00:29 [music]
00:31 A concerned citizen has filed a complaint against you
00:33 for a discipline waiver that a grade 2 teacher has requested
00:36 from a public elementary school in Rizal Province.
00:39 [music]
00:41 In the document sent to your Kapusa Action Man,
00:45 it is stated that if the parent signs the waiver,
00:47 they will allow their child to be disciplined
00:50 in school in the manner of the teacher's discipline.
00:53 Whatever the teacher's method,
00:55 the student will be harmed in the speech and actions.
00:59 [music]
01:02 To make sure that the document is legal,
01:04 we consulted with a lawyer.
01:06 Generally, the waiver is recognized by the law.
01:09 But under Article 6 of our Civil Code,
01:12 the waiver has no visa if it is illegal
01:14 or if it is against our policies.
01:18 This waiver that is presented to us now
01:21 is considered to have no visa.
01:24 They did not specify in what way
01:28 the children will be disciplined.
01:30 We have to remember that there are guidelines,
01:33 there are laws that restrict the actions of a teacher.
01:37 We will complete the recognition of the teacher
01:39 and the school for the protection of the children studying there.
01:43 I went to the school to get their permission.
01:47 I talked to the grade 2 teacher,
01:49 but she refused to allow an on-cam interview.
01:52 Instead, she clarified her intention in making the document.
01:56 This is not a so-called discipline waiver,
01:59 but a letter or a reminder.
02:02 She wants to give a positive way of disciplining
02:06 without harming the students.
02:08 If this is just a letter,
02:10 the parents should not ask for permission
02:13 and they should be informed.
02:15 If this is a letter,
02:17 it should be addressed to the parents
02:19 signed by the teacher.
02:20 The issue was not given to the regional director
02:23 of DepEd Region 4A
02:24 and they refused to give an interview.
02:27 According to the grade 2 teacher,
02:29 she talked to DepEd
02:30 and stopped using the document.
02:33 DepEd also talked to the parents of the affected children
02:38 and clarified the waiver.
02:40 The lawyer also advised the school to follow up.
02:44 Although they stopped this,
02:47 in my opinion,
02:48 they can still discipline the children.
02:51 But they should provide guidelines
02:53 and a warning.
