| Abstract | This study examined teachers’ perspectives on how philosophical foundations shape educational policies and classroom practices. Interviews with six public school teachers, conducted using a qualitative descriptive design, revealed their awareness of various educational philosophies, including essentialism, progressivism, humanism, and constructivism, within the context of current reforms. The teachers perceive these philosophies as pertinent to addressing learning deficits and fostering comprehensive development. However, they encounter considerable discrepancies between the theoretical underpinnings of policies and the practical realities of their classrooms, primarily due to resource limitations and administrative burdens. The teachers' individual educational philosophies significantly shape their interpretation and application of educational policies. The study recommends the development of context-specific policies, a reduction in administrative tasks, and increased teacher participation in the policy-making process to improve the consistency between philosophical principles and practical implementation. |
