教师维权联盟（ACT）拒绝了教育部（DepEd）为三学期制校历所做的辩护，称其所声称的咨询并未反映教师在实际工作中的真实经历。
在马尼拉，教师维权联盟（ACT）周一拒绝了教育部（DepEd）为三学期制校历所做的辩护。ACT主席Ruby Bernardo表示，许多教师对该公告感到措手不及，这与教育部声称的广泛咨询相矛盾。Bernardo说：“如果真的进行了广泛的咨询，为什么这么多教师对如此重大的政策转变感到惊讶？政策宣讲不能等同于教师对决策制定的实质性参与。”尽管受到了教师团体的批评，教育部仍为其政策进行辩护，称其是与教师、学校领导、家长、学生以及公共和私营部门代表进行多层面详尽咨询的结果。Bernardo承认有必要解决学习差距，但警告称仓促的改革只会加剧问题。她指出，这一转变未能解决学习危机的根源——即师资短缺、教室过度拥挤、教学材料匮乏以及工资过低等问题——反而增加了教师的负担。她将其与K-12教育改革的推行相提并论，当时教师们就曾警告说，结构性问题被忽视了，而采用了缺乏支持的改革措施。
