Ex-4Ps achievers ace teacher exam

Six former Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) beneficiaries are proving that hard work and determination can turn dreams into reality — and they’ve done it spectacularly in the 2025 Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET).

The Department of Social Welfare and Development in Central Visayas (DSWD-7) announced Sunday that these young achievers not only passed but ranked among the top performers, showing that the success of 4Ps has real faces and real stories behind it.

“This achievement proves that the success of 4Ps has faces — and they are the light and inspiration for Filipino youth who continue to dream of finishing their studies and building a better future,” said DSWD-7 Regional Director Shalaine Marie Lucero.

At the Elementary Level, Marjoe Mejias of Mandaue City, Cebu placed fourth, while Clyde Zeph Payusan of Dalaguete, Cebu took ninth.

In the Secondary Level, Jake Pradilla of Medellin, Cebu and Clara Mae Tangpos of Dalaguete, Cebu both secured ninth place, and rounding out the top achievers were Leendon Gelborion of Argao, Cebu and Nino Sanchez of Buenavista, Bohol, who placed 10th.

The LET, held in September and November 2025, continues to be a milestone for these former 4Ps students, highlighting their resilience, dedication, and the bright futures that await them.
