The Mind Museum in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, sells a School Teacher in the Philippines ticket for P230 on its three-hour visit, against P625 for an adult. The plan your visit page prints both prices, and because the ticket line is labeled for school teachers in the Philippines, this is a Philippine program and not one for teachers everywhere. The page shows its prices with a P, for Philippine pesos.
If you teach in the Philippines and you’re planning a weekend with your own family, or looking the museum over before you bring a class, the museum states its position plainly: tickets for teachers and public school students “have been and will continue to be, significantly subsidized.”
How To Get The Mind Museum Teacher Discount
Buy the three-hour visit ticket in the School Teacher in the Philippines category. The page says tickets are available online and at the museum’s ticket booth, though it doesn’t say which of the two takes the teacher rate, so plan to carry your ID either way. The footnote on the teacher line says teachers must present a valid academic or school ID indicating “teacher.” If you don’t have a valid school ID, the page says a certificate of employment from your school, together with a government-issued ID, will be accepted.
What The Ticket Covers
The P230 price is for the three-hour visit, which gives access to the main galleries with over 250 interactive exhibits. It doesn’t include special or traveling exhibitions. The all-day pass is listed at P750 for an adult or child and has no teacher line, so if you want that pass, the page shows one price for everyone.
Who Counts As A Teacher
The ticket line reads “School Teacher in the Philippines” and the page doesn’t define it further. A Thank You Teacher promotion the museum ran earlier described a wider group, school academic teachers of schools offering preschool, K-12 and university levels, but that page says registration is now closed, and the ticket page doesn’t say whether the same range applies to the standing rate. If you teach at a preschool or a university, ask before you count on it.
That earlier promotion offered free entrance when the teacher visited with at least one paying companion, and its page says it isn’t valid for school tours and field trips. It’s a closed promotion, so it isn’t the P230 ticket above.
What We Couldn’t Confirm
The plan your visit page doesn’t say whether the teacher rate can be bought online or only at the booth, and it doesn’t say how many tickets one teacher can buy at the P230 price. It also doesn’t say whether the rate applies to a booked school tour or field trip. We didn’t find a teacher rate on the all-day pass or a teacher ticket for anyone outside the Philippines.
Q&A
How much is the teacher ticket at The Mind Museum?
P230 for the three-hour visit, listed under School Teacher in the Philippines. The adult ticket on the same table is P625.
Do I have to teach in the Philippines?
The ticket line is labeled School Teacher in the Philippines, so that is the group the page describes.
What do I show to get the teacher price?
A valid academic or school ID indicating teacher. Without one, the page accepts a certificate of employment from the school along with a government-issued ID.
Is there a teacher price on the all-day pass?
The page lists the all-day pass at P750 for an adult or child and shows no teacher line.
Does the teacher rate cover school tours?
We couldn’t confirm that. The earlier Thank You Teacher promotion wasn’t valid for school tours and field trips, and the ticket page doesn’t address them.
