2
Correct Answer:
Teacher I–Master Teacher I are identified in the IRR as the base positions of the Expanded Career Progression system.

11
Correct Answer:
“Non-hierarchical” means progression is standards- and competency-based within the base positions, not dependent on a supervisory ladder or waived requirements.
12
Correct Answer:
The IRR recognizes promotion through natural vacancy or reclassification of position, subject to standards and QS.
13
Correct Answer:
Natural vacancy arises from personnel movement (e.g., retirement) resulting in a vacant plantilla item.
14
Correct Answer:
Two consecutive failures trigger mandatory support interventions under NEAP in coordination with relevant DepEd offices, not punitive actions.
15
Correct Answer:
NEAP develops transition programs and support interventions responsive to competency gaps identified in implementation.
16
Correct Answer:
TEC affirms attainment of career stage indicators and participates in governance of standards-based progression.
17
Correct Answer:
CSC approval is required for qualification standards applicable to positions covered by the IRR’s implementation framework.
18
Correct Answer:
DBM functions include creation/integration of new titles and alignment with compensation and position classification systems.
19
Correct Answer:
The IRR clarifies that OIC/TIC designations do not confer school leader classification for purposes of the system.

The IRR explicitly provides equivalence in salaries, benefits, and other privileges across the career lines.

Correct Answer:
The IRR equivalence mapping provides Head Teacher I as equivalent to Teacher IV.
24
Correct Answer:
The IRR equivalence table identifies Head Teacher VI as equivalent to School Principal I or Master Teacher II.
25
Correct Answer:
The IRR allows retitling within the transition period even if retention was initially selected.
26
Correct Answer:
Career stage affirmation functions as standards governance confirming attainment of indicators required for progression; it does not waive QS.
27
Correct Answer:
Non-diminution protects incumbents from reduction in rank/benefits; it does not remove promotion prerequisites or guarantee advancement.
28
Correct Answer:
The IRR sets a six-month period from IRR effectivity for completion/adoption of required coordinated deliverables.
29
Correct Answer:
The IRR specifies effectivity conditions: publication, filing with the National Administrative Register, and a 30-day effectivity period.
30
Correct Answer:
The defensible action is accurate policy orientation and standards-aligned capacity building while coordinating HR guidance; premature filing directives and misclassification are improper.
