What is PPST?
• It sets clear expectations of teachers.
• It provides a framework of uniform measures to
assess teacher performance.
• It is a public statement of professional
accountability.
• It has four career stages: Beginning, Proficient,
Highly Proficient, and Distinguished.
• It has seven Domains, 37 Strands, and 37
indicators for each career stage.

The Link between PPST and RPMS

Is PPST part of RPMS?

Or is RPMS part of the PPST?

PPST is not part of the RPMS. PPST is a

stand-alone document.

Same way, RPMS is not a part of the PPST.

It is a pre-existing system requirement from
the Civil Service Commission (CSC).

In summary:
The PPST is the core document being used by
DepEd to anchor its systems and processes. It is not
solely for the RPMS.

RPMS is just a
portion, but it is an
important part to how
the PPST could link
all other systems.
