This study investigated the level of personal growth and professional competencies among teachers in the Tabaco City Division for the School Year 2022–2023. Using a descriptive survey method, data were gathered from 261 proportionally selected teacher-respondents across various schools. The study explored key dimensions of personal growth—self-management, professionalism and ethics, and results focus—and professional competencies—service orientation, innovation, and teamwork. Statistical tools such as frequency count, percentage, and weighted mean were employed to analyze the data. Findings revealed varying levels of development across these domains, with notable strengths in professionalism and teamwork, and areas for improvement in innovation and results focus. The study further examined how personal growth, and professional competencies influence teacher performance, identifying positive correlations between high competency levels and improved instructional outcomes. Challenges encountered by respondents included limited access to professional development opportunities, time constraints, and lack of institutional support. Based on these findings, an Individual Development Plan (IDP) was proposed to enhance both personal and professional growth. The IDP emphasizes targeted interventions such as mentoring, skills training, and collaborative learning sessions. Overall, the study underscores the importance of continuous capacity-building and strategic support systems to elevate teaching quality and foster holistic educator development.
