ABSTRACT: This study aimed to determine the relationship between the profile and science teachers competence based on their performance rating. The teachers were 15 science teachers and 1 head teacher of Eulogio Rodriguez Jr. High School . The sample represented the whole population of science teachers of the school. The descriptive survey method was employed in the study. Chi-square was used to determine if significant relationship exist between the profile and science teachers' competence. It was found out that no significant relationship exists between science teachers competence and certain profile such as highest educational attainment, length of service, less professional development which include reading professional literature and engagement in formal dialogue with colleagues on how to improve teaching. Furthermore, there was no significant relationship between science teachers competence and personal professional development program. Perhaps, for formal professional development, curriculum materials or frameworks, observation visits to other schools, student assessment and content performance were found to have significant relationship with science teachers' competence. Based on the findings, an enhanced professional development plan is proposed for the science teachers.
