FOREWORD
Even before COVID-19 struck and caused problems to millions of families, the education
sector has been confronted with growing education issues which sadly worsen because of the
challenges brought about by the health crisis. DepEd officials firmly believe that students must
not take learning for granted. In times of crises and sudden changes, having access to education
should be valued. Aside from the fact that it is a main human right, it also impacts the other
human rights that we have. Likewise, more children, youth, and adults cannot get a leg up and
are thus left behind due to unfair access to learning. Moving forward, such issues can lead to
worse long-term effects. In its effort to make education more relevant to the needs of local
communities, the Department of Education (DepEd) has instituted a local planning process on
the division level to produce what is called the Division Education Development
Plan (DEDP). DepEd documents describe the DEDP as “the main vehicle through which the
division can effectively and efficiently manage education services in the province or city.”
The Schools Division of Bulacan delightfully presents the Division Education Development
Plan (FY 2022–2028) which displays the current data, programs, strategies, interventions, major
outputs along with the performance targets of the Division to address learning gaps and ensure
the delivery of quality education while fostering creativity and preserving the Bulakenyo culture
to serve as the foundation in the transition to Education 4.0.
The DEDP was prepared based on careful analysis of relevant educational data and a series
of discussions with several stakeholders. It is the six-year plan for basic education of SDO
Bulacan to meet the challenge of delivering quality education and to fairly deal with the
disturbing issues on the learners' academic performance. The Learning Recovery Plan (LRP) for
basic education is a major component of the DEDP which aims to focus on the immediate
impact of the pandemic on learning and to recuperate from the learning losses observed from
the students. The said long-term plan has incorporated innovative and appropriate
research-based strategies to manage the challenges of delivering
quality education, address the learning losses, implement pertinent
programs,
and warrant a proactive and reactive governance, management, and
systems.With great aspirations, may the DEDP serve as a blueprint in
honing holistically developed Bulakenyo learners who are deemed as
citizens of the world.May they be the so-called global citizens who
acceptdiversity, respect individuality , and take an active
role in making our world more peaceful and sustainable.
Bulakenyo learners deserve to have access to quality,
relevant and liberating basic education.

One Goal, One DepEd Bulacan!

The Bulakenyo learners are at the core of SDO Bulacan Division
Education Development Plan (DEDP). They are envisioned to be holistically
developed in basic education, acquiring 21st century skills that will enable
them to manage oneself, build connections, inquire, innovate, stay nimble,
and serve beyond self. They must take pride in identity and culture as
Bulakenyos and aspire for lifelong learning, competitiveness, economic
prosperity, socio-political stability, unity in diversity, flourishing, and
sustainability by upholding the core values: Maka-Diyos, Maka-tao,
Makakalikasan, at Makabansa.
The DEDP goal which is anchored to DepEd’s vision is for all Bulakenyo
learners to be able to realize their full potential and be productive members
of the society. The DEDP results framework aims to ensure that learners
have the physical, cognitive, socio-emotional, and moral preparation for
civic participation and engagement in post-secondary opportunities in their
local, national, and global communities by focusing on:

1. Access: All school-age children, out-of-school youth, and adults have


access to relevant basic learning opportunities
2. Equity: Disadvantaged school-age children and youth, and adults benefit
from appropriate equity initiatives
3. Quality: Learners complete basic education having attained all learning
standards that equip them with the necessary skills and attributes to
pursue their chosen paths
4. Resiliency & Well-Being: Learners are resilient and aware of their rights
and have the life skills to protect themselves and their rights.
Achieving the intermediate outcomes requires Enabling Mechanisms that
are efficient, nimble, and resilient for governance and management
processes. The Enabling Mechanisms will allow the Division to achieve the
results through the right policies and standards, systems and processes,
human resource professional development, and partnerships.

SDO Bulacan DEDP 2022 – 2028 provides a strategic roadmap for the
Division to improve the delivery of quality education to all Bulakenyo
learners though the “BULAKENYO” flagship program. It is carefully
designed to address the immediate impacts of the pandemic to the teaching
and learning process. It aims to address the learning losses and intensify
the learning gains. It focuses on improving the foundational and lifelong
learning skills of the Bulakenyo learners as well as their resilience and
health as they actively participate in the teaching and learning process. All
learners including the disadvantaged and marginalized ones must be
provided with appropriate learning resources and strategies to develop their
full potential by acquiring the necessary literacy, numeracy, and science
skills. These may be achieved by maintaining an enabling environment that
promotes collaborative, adaptive, responsive, and efficient governance,
management, and systems.

2022-2028
Various strategic interventions, projects, programs, and major outputs are
set to fully realize the goals of the DEDP in the next six years. These are the
following:
• Bulakenyo Learners
• Intensify the implementation of inclusive and equitable education
for all learners in every key stage, special programs through
Special Education Program, Indigenous People Education
Program, Madrasah Education Program, Multigrade Education
Program and Alternative Learning System.
• Contextualize the curriculum and learning materials at the
school level to provide equitable and appropriate learning
opportunities for all learners.
• Strengthen the Career Guidance Program and ensure that all
Bulakenyo learners demonstrate the DepEd Core Values
• Implement the different activities programs and projects in
different learning areas to guarantee advancement in the
academic performance of the Bulakenyo learners
• Enhance the implementation of Youth Formation Program, Core
Values Development, Character Formation and Career Guidance
Program
• Bulakenyo Teachers
• Conduct research to continuously address the identified learning
gaps and implement accelerated learning and enrichment of
instructional delivery
• Increase the competencies of teachers and DRRM coordinators in
disaster management
• Upskill and reskill teaching and non-teaching personnel

• Bulakenyo Schools
• Heighten school-community partnership
• Improve and maintain school facilities to ensure proper
distribution of crucial resources
• Fortify the delivery of school health services
With reference to the DEDP’s enabling mechanisms, SDO Bulacan
compels to serve the Bulakenyo learners with an education that
CARES – collaborative, accelerating, responsive, empowering and
strategic governance and management system. It is with high hope
that through the Division’s flagship program “BULAKENYO,” all
Bulakenyo learners will be heading to the right path and be global
citizens who are ready to face the realities of life.

Note: Generally, enrollment in Public Basic Education constantly increased amidst the pandemic while enrollment in K-10 in the private
schools, SUCs, and LUCs decreased. A significant number of transferees from private to public schools were registered. However, the
increase in enrollment in SHS is very evident. This is due to the assistance provided by the government to private schools.

According to the aforementioned figures, the Key Stages 1-4 for enrollment in
public basic education constantly increased, specifically in the S.Y. 2021–2022 with
306,469 in Key Stages 1 and 2; 159,973 in Key Stage 3; and 40,910 in Key Stage 4 as
compared to the S.Y. 2020–2021 with 297,548 enrollees for the public in the Key
Stages 1 and 2; 151,224 in Key Stage 3; and 34, 418 in the Key Stage. This shows that
despite the aftermath of the pandemic, public schools, through their teachers and
learning modalities and support, deliver quality education to Filipino students.
However, enrollment in private basic education, SUCs, and LUCs fell drastically.
From 30, 556 enrollees in Key Stages 1 and 2, it became 30,254; from 38, 529 in Key
Stage 3, it became 35,996; and finally, from 35,850 in Key Stage 4, it became 37,756.
Enrollment in private basic education declined as some private schools closed and a
large number of students dropped out of public schools due to parents' financial
insecurity as a result of the pandemic. It is relative to SUCs and LUCs, which are in
Key Stage 3 in S.Y. 2020–2021 form 141, it became 93 for S.Y. 2021-2022. Meanwhile,

SDO Bulacan has continuously uphold its mission of bringing education with superior quality
towards its learners. One of its indicators is the Completion Rate. Completion rate shows the
percentage of students who has successfully finished or completed their relevant level of education.
For the past three school years beginning 2017, our division has maintained its high completion rate
both in Elementary and Junior High School. However, due to the unforeseen turn of events brought
by the global health crisis, a tremendous increase in the completion rate was recorded across all key
stage areas. In Key stage 1 and 2 (Elementary), there was significant drop of 12.37% in the
completion rate from 99.38% in SY. 2019-2020 down to 87.01% in SY 2020-2021. Similarly, for key
stage 3 (Junior High School), 11.34% drop in completion rate was reported from 91.43% in SY. 2019-
2020 down to 81.22% in SY 2020-2021. Furthermore, an 8.04% drop in completion rate was
recorded in key stage 4 (Senior High School) from 73.14% in SY. 2019-2020 down to 65.10% in SY
2020-2021. These data imply that several learners have chosen to cease schooling primarily due to
the impact of the global health crisis. Nevertheless, SDO Bulacan, together with its teaching force and
stakeholders, continuously exhausting all means to bring these learners back to school regardless of
learning modalities.

Assessing the acquired key knowledge and skills needed in becoming meaningful
contributors and functional citizens is one of the hallmarks of PISA or Programme for
International Student Assessment. In 2018, our country joined the survey which esteemed
to determine the proficiency level of learners aged 15 years old specifically on reading,
mathematics, and science. The results thereby revealed that Filipino learners aged 15
scored lower that the most of the participating countries in reading, mathematics, and
science. Unfortunately, the results revealed that 80 % of Filipino learners did not meet a
minimum reading competency.

As one of the participating divisions in the PISA 2018, SDO Bulacan involved 80
participants from public schools specifically from Dr. Felipe de Jesus NHS in Plaridel,
Bulacan and San Pedro National High School in Hagonoy, Bulacan with 38 and 42 student
participants correspondingly. 20 participants were taken from private school, named
Smarties Academy of Sta. Maria in Sta. Maria Bulacan, thereby comprising a total of 100
student participants. The learning areas covered for the PISA simulation are Reading,
Mathematics, and English.

The results of the PISA simulation test as revealed by TABLE 14 has shown that
learners from the private school obtained the highest overall mean percentage score (MPS)
of 63.38. Also, it can be seen from the same table that among the three learning areas
covered, Reading garnered the highest average followed by English and Mathematics with
averages of 63.00, 43.38, and 57.32 respectively. Despite the efforts exerted by the
participating schools, none of the three attained the target 75% of MPS. The results
from the simulation does not deviate from the results obtained in the national
standard. Hence, appropriate strategies and interventions are
considered to meet the standards set by the department.

Note: The consolidated EGRA report in English shows that among the components/skills, Book and Print Knowledge ranks 1st in
all three Grade levels while Listening Comprehension Skills lands on the last spot which must be further improved.

One way of ensuring the delivery of quality education is through the utilization of
the result of Early Grade Reading Assessment as per DepEd Order No 57 s. 2015. This
assessment is given to Grades 1-3 to gauge the effectiveness of Mother Tongue Based-
Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) in the reading and writing proficiency both in English
and in Filipino. Learners are gauged among different subtasks or components which are
Book and Print Knowledge, Phonetic Awareness, Alphabetic Knowledge, Decoding Skills,
Spelling and Reading Rate, Reading Accuracy, Listening Comprehension Skills, and
Dictation/Spelling Skills.

Table 15 shows the Consolidated EGRA Report in English in Key stage 1 for SY
2021. The table revealed that a great number of Grade 1 -3 learners in SDO Bulacan
possess high levels of literacy in Book and Print Knowledge. In average, 78.68% of learners
from Grades 1-3 has achieved mastery on the said component. It was then followed by
Phonetic Awareness with 59.70% of learners that has shown mastery. However, Listening
Comprehension Skills got the lowest number of learners who have shown mastery of the
subtask/component at 40.66% average from Grades 1-3. It can also be seen from the table
that the lowest percentage of literate pupils falls under Listening Comprehension Skills
notably in Grade 1 with 38.66%. The data reveals that despite the use of MTB-MLE in
teaching learners literacy in English, still only a handful has possessed the needed
foundational skills. There is a great number of learners who experience difficulties in
listening and understading the passages or text being read. Moreso, other subcomponents
aside from Book and Print Knowledge have less than 60% of learners who achieved
functional literacy. This data indicates a call for intensification of the programs and
projects of the division together with its schools in improving student’s reading and writing
skills.

Note: The consolidated EGRA report in Filipino shows that Book and Print Knowledge also ranks 1st in all three Grade levels while Dictation/Spelling Skills
ranks the last.

Similar with the results in EGRA Report in English, Book and Print Knowledge
ranked first in the Consolidated EGRA Report in Filipino for Keystage 1 SY 2021-2022 of
SDO Bulacan as reflected on Table 16. In average, 82.47% of learners from Grades 1-3
showed literacy rate on the said component. This is remarkably higher as compared to the
English which is the second language. Meanwhile, Dictation/Spelling skills ranked the
lowest number of literate pupils in key stage 1 with only 35.70% of learners showing
literacy. It can be denoted from the result that most of the learners have difficulties in
writing correct word spelling following the mechanics of print, spacing, direction of text,
capitalization, and punctuation in Filipino.

Note: The table shows Grade 1 Project All Numerates (PAN) results from S.Y. 2019-20 to S.Y. 2021-22, it was reflected that higher percentage of 15.25 % for
non-numerates in S.Y. 20-21 likewise high percentage of nearly numerates appeared in the same S.Y., Moreover, among the three school years, numerates
appeared to be the highest in in S.Y. 2019-20 and the lowest is in the year 2020-21. As to the comparison of the three classifications, S.Y. only in school
year 2020-21 got numerates less percentage as compared with the nearly and non-numerates.
Not only language literacy, but also numeracy level has been continuously
monitored and assessed at SDO Bulacan guided by Regional Memorandum No. 027 s.
2021 through the administration of contextualized pre-test and post-test assessment tools
of Project All Numerates (PAN). This project aims to determine the numeracy level of
learners and to utilize the results for research and policy recommendation for the
improvement of
instruct and performance in Mathematics.
The data shows from Table 17 that in Grade 1 for the past three school years S.Y.
2019-2020 revealed the highest number of numerates at 68.91%. The next year, a great
drop in the number of numerates was recorded with a difference of 37.81% from
the previous school year. Likewise, S.Y. 2020-2021 showed the highest
number of non-numerates at 15.25% leaving mostly half of the learners
as nearly numerates. Nonetheless, the number of numerates bounced back
from 31.10% in S.Y. 2020-2021 to 55.89% As such, it can be noted that
the numeracy level of learners in Grade 1 have declined at its peak
specially during the time of lockdowns and initial implementation of distance
learning modalities

However, nearly numerates (57.25%) is the highest in terms of percentages as compared to numerates and non-numerates in S.Y.
2020-21

Similar trends can be seen from Table 18 and Table 19 showing the numeracy level
of Grade 2 and Grade 3 learners respectively. Higher numbers of learners falling under
numerates can be seen on S.Y. 2019-2020 which declined during S.Y. 2020-2021 and then
regained at S.Y. 2021-2022.

Araling Panlipunan 44.18 41.24 40.30
Average 41.37 40.08 39.95
Note: It is evident that among the five subject areas, Filipino has the highest MPS in the Division, Regional and National Level
followed by Araling Panlipunan. It must also be noted that learners need more improvement in Science and Mathematics as
shown in the low MPS results in all three levels.

National Achievement Test (NAT) has consistently been used as determinant of academic
performance and standing of our learners in 5 subject areas namely Filipino, Mathematics, English,
Science, and Araling Panlipunan. The latest result of Grade 6 NAT can be seen on Table 20. As
revealed by the Table, Grade 6 learners in the division of Bulacan garnered the highest MPS result in
Filipino at 56.78% followed by Araling Panlipunan at 44.18%. It appeared that learners need more
support and improvement in Science and Mathematics due to its low MPS results. Despite achieving
the lowest MPS in Science in our division with 31.40%, it is still significantly higher as compared to
the regional and national MPS of 30.60% and 30.94% respectively. Likewise, it is evident from the
Table that SDO Bulacan Grade 6 learners are at par with the other learners in the region and
the entire country with an averaged MPS result of 41.37% which is slightly higher than the
regional and national MPS at 40.08% and 39.95% consecutively.

Note: Filipino remains to have the highest MPS in the Grade 10 NAT Results in the Division, Regional and National Level. Still
even in the Secondary level, learners need more academic improvement in Mathematics and Science which had the low MPS.

Data on NAT Results for Grade 10 as revealed by Table 21 shows that Filipino
consistently remained with the highest MPS result at 53.10% in our division and is higher
than the regional and national MPS. Correspondingly, Science and Mathematics still
reaped the lowest MPS with 34.15% and 36.16% respectively. Furthermore, our division
has performed lower than the national performance by average of 43.33% vis a vis 44.08% ;
but considerably higher than the performance of the region with 42.29% MPS results. This
indicates that our division has progressively strived to be competitive in terms of academic
achievement and has constantly engaged in programs and projects to help learners achieve
superior academic performance.

Meanwhile, the results of Grade 12 National Achievement Test for SY 2017-2018


and 2018-2019 as shown in Table 22, reveals that there is a slight decline of 0.11%
in the average MPS between those two years of assessment which is quite
unapportioned. It highly evident that most of Senior High School students
excel in Media and Information Literacy for two consecutive years with
47.87% and 44.97% respectively. Meanwhile, Language and
Communication follows the lead at 38.61% and 41.63%. Still and all, SHS
students has performed low in Science and Mathematics.
Comparing the different national achievement test for Grade 6, Grade 10, and
Senior High School, Mathematics and Science has been consistent for having low MPS
scores. This is backed up by the results revealed by international assessment for
mathematics and science, the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study in
2019. Most of the Filipino Grade 4 participants scored the lowest among the 58
participating countries with 297 in mathematics and 249 in science. This implies that the
congrous results among the international and local assessments should be ruminated to
come up with relevant measures, projects and programs to sustain and boost academic
achievement.

Note: The Regional Diagnostic Assessment Results for this school year show that in Keystages 1 & 3 Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao
has the highest MPL of 59.01 and 48.72 respectively, while MAPEH is the highest MPL with 51.37 in Keystage 2 and Araling
Panlipunan 32.95 in Keystage 4. On the other hand, the learning area with the lowest MPL in all keystages is Mathematics.

Aside from the varied international and national academic tests held to gauge
learners’ academic achievement and progress, SDO Bulacan adhered to the administration
of Regional Diagnostic Assessment (RDA) thru Regional Memorandum No. 504 s. 2022
which aims to assess the competencies attained by learners as they return to face to face
learning modality. This assessment also aims to help teachers, administrators, and top
management personel to identify the present strengths, weaknesses, knowledge level, and
skills set of learners after enduring two years of continued learning during the pandemic.
In the conduct of RDA, learners were given the diagnostic tool across the eight learning
areas. Results are then reported by the number of Minimum Proficiency Level (MPL) as well
as Most and Least Mastered Competencies. The minimum proficiency level is measured by
the number of learners who has achieved 60% or more correct answers. Based on the
collated results of RDA in SDO Bulacan as presented in Table __, the learning area with the
highest number of learners with minimum level of proficiency is Edukasyon sa
Pagpapakatao (ESP) at key stage 1 with 59.01% of learners for S.Y. 2021 -2022. However,
Mathematics came with the lowest MPL across all key learning areas with the lowest MPL
of 1.25% on key stage 3. It is also evident that in key stage 3, learners have low MPL of less
than 10% in English, MAPEH, Science, and Math with 5.30%, 1.98%, 1.48% , and 1.25%
respectively. Whereas for key stage 4, learning areas with low MPL of less than 10% are
Science, English, and Mathematics with 1.98% , 1.48%, and 1.25%. The data implies that a
great number of learners have not reached the desired number of correct items across all
learning areas on their previous grade level. Hence, there are learners who have not fully
mastered the competencies intended to them on their previous level. In addition,
intensification of projects and programs to strenghten mastery of competencies must be
seen across all learning areas with focus on English, Mathematics, and Science.

Note: Majority of the SHS graduates pursue Higher Education for the past three school years with an average of 67.83%. 19.93% of
the SHS graduates opted to be employed, some 4.91% became entrepreneurs while 5.31% of the learners have middle
skills. 2.02% were not classified in any SHS exits.

With the aim of the K to 12 program to successfully prepare and guide learners to be ready
in all aspects of life, SDO Bulacan has guaranteed to provide avenues for the learners to
pursue higher education, employment, attainment and practice of middle level skills, and
entrepreneurship. Figure 25 shows the average percentage of SHS Exit pathways chosen
by learners from S.Y. 2018-2019 to S.Y. 2020-2021. The highest portion of SHS graduates
entered college and seek higher education with 67.83% . S.Y. 2019-2020 gained highest
percentage of higher education exits at 70.40% . Those who have not decided to pursue
higher education have chosen other exit points. 19.93% of them decided to apply for jobs
in different fields with their SHS diploma to instantly help their families by earning for a
living. Meanwhile, 5.31% of learners have chosen to develop their skills through trainings
and earning national certificates and become meaningful contributors of the workforce
instead of pursuing four-year courses. 4.91% of the SHS graduates has engaged into
entrepreneurship making use of their abilities to earn profit and engage in varied forms
of businesses. Sadly, 2.02% of SHS graduates are not to be found in any exits.

In support with the strengthened inclusive education program of the Department of


Education, SDO Bulacan has sustainably supported accessible education for our learners
through Multigrade Education, Special Education, Alternative Learning System, Indigenous
Peoples Education, and Madrasah. Quality education among these programs has been
ensured and secured by the teachers and administrators of the division to meet the
competencies desired for every Filipino learners.
One of the inclusive programs is the Multigrade Education. For the past 2 years,
there was a decline in the Literacy level both in English and Filipino and in Numeracy in
Grades 1-3 from S.Y. 2019-2020 and S.Y. 2020-2021. This data reveals that the academic
performance of learners in Multigrade was not spared by the effects of global health crisis.
As presented by Table 25, Grade 1 learners in S.Y. 2020-2021 scored 51.37 in English
Literacy, 50.19 in Filipino Literacy, and 50.14 in Numeracy. Highest herewith is English
Literacy. Also, it can be seen from the same Table that Grade 2 learners in S.Y. 2020-2021
obtained 52.82, 51.63, and 52.47 in English Literacy, Filipino Literacy, and Numeracy
consecutively. Most of the learners in Grade 2 have higher performances in English
Literacy. Among all the other grade levels, Grade 3 has the highest performance in English
Literacy, Filipino Literacy, and Numeracy with 53.61, 52.42, and 52.89. English Literacy
has been consistently high across the 3 key stage areas.

Table __ shows that for the past four school years the percentage in the number of
elementary SpEd learners enrolled in the mainstream has decrease from 28.82% in S.Y.
2019-2020 to 24.77% in S.Y. 2020-2021. However, in S.Y. 2021-2022, enrollees of SpEd
Learners in mainstream increased by 2.58% from 24.77% to 27.35% . On the other hand,
the highest number of secondary SpEd learners who have been introduced to mainstream
classes is attributed on S.Y. 2018-2019 with 97.45% while S.Y. 2019-2020 got the lowest
percentage. The data presented implies that prior the pandemic the number of SpEd in
mainstream schools are generally high. Due to the implementation of limited face to face
classes, there has been an increase in the number of enrollment.

Through Alternative Learning System, SDO Bulacan has unceasingly provided out-
of-school youth and adults (OSYA) to acquire literacy skills, both fundamental and
practical, and to gain access to educational tracks leading to the same degree of
educational attainment as their school-aged peers. It was revealed from the Table __ that
for the past three school years S.Y. 2021-2022 regained the number of enrollees in ALS
with 15.77% increase from 7,822 in 2020-2021 to 9,056 in 2021-2022. This can be traced
from the strong mobilization and campaign of the division in reaching out to our OSYA
learning. Perhaps, the pandemic has also encouraged our learners on the hardships of
economic situations, thus, igniting the desire of these learners to gain an equal advantage
with others through education.
However, despite the increased number of enrollment, there is a downward trend on
the percentage of passers in the ALS program. Table __ presents the passing percentage
of ALS learners in Accreditation and Equivalency from S.Y. 2019-2022 to
S.Y. 2021-2022. From 59% in S.Y. 2019-2022, the number of passers
significantly decreased to S.Y. 2020-2021 with 56% and with 51% in S.Y.
2021-2022. This declivity calls for mitigation methods to prevent further
depreciation of passing percentage for ALS learners. Strengthening of
programs to develop ALS learners with the right skills, knowledge,
and attitude ought to be on the lists of priorities.

cater their educational needs.
As shown by the data on Table 30, there is a 100% promotion rate of learners
from S.Y. 2019-2020 to S.Y. 2020-2021. This denotes that all enrolees for Madrasah has
successfully completed their intended level of education despite the adverse effects of the
global health crisis. Furthermore, quality in education delivery in Madrasah education led
to more enrolees. For S.Y. 2022-2023 as reflected by Figure __, 405 learners had enrolled
comprising of 217 males and 188 females. This is significantly higher than the previous
enrolment data over the past 3 years. The new implementing schools for Madrasah
Education also contributed to encourage learners to be at school. The learners and
parents have vested their trust in SDO Bulacan in providing them quality and responsive
and inclusive education.

Table 31. SCHOOL CONTINGENCY PLANS FOR DISASTER RESILIENCE

School Contingency Plans for Disaster Resilience are well-prepared by the 442 elementary schools, 94 secondary schools and 3 ]stand-
alone schools in unforeseen situations like earthquake, fire, typhoon, flood and even COVID-19 outbreak. 120 elementary schools, 15
secondary schools and 1 stand-alone school are in flood-prone areas.

According to the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology, Bulacan is


susceptible to earthquakes since it is located near the West Valley Fault System, an
earthquake generator that can generate an earthquake of magnitude 7.2. Moreover,
communities in Bulacan are also exposed to severe flooding because of subsidence and rising
sea levels brought on by climate change.
School Contingency Plans for Disaster Resilience are meticulously designed by 442
elementary schools, 94 secondary schools, and 3 standalone schools in preparation for
unforeseen circumstances such as earthquakes, fire, typhoons, floods, and the Covid-19
outbreak. It has been observed that 120 elementary schools, 15 secondary schools, and 1
stand-alone school are located in flood-prone areas. Thus, the school contingency plan had
been tested, implemented, and had been proven effective.

Preparation does not only end in planning alone, it also requires training on
personnel that will play a crucial role in times of disaster. In line with this, the 33 DRRM
District Coordinators and 36 Secondary EDDIS Coordinators are all trained in occupational
first aid and are all accredited instructors in first aid by Provincial Disaster Risk
Reduction Management Office (PDRRMO).
Vaccination
Table 33. VACCINATION STATUS: LEARNERS

Despite the all the vaccination drives and campaigns done, the number of unvaccinated learners is higher compared to the
vaccinated learners.

As part of its efforts to promote minimum public health standards, Vaccination drives
and campaigns against COVID-19 had been conducted to ensure health safety and lower the
chance of getting infected and spreading Covid 19. However, it has been evident that 77 % of
5-11-year-olds (215,485 pupils) and 36 % of 12-18-year-olds (59,129 students) remained
unvaccinated. Vaccination status is not a requirement in attending in-person classes however
it is noted that the protection of students' safety and wellbeing is further increased by
vaccination, combined with the stringent health and safety procedures followed in schools in
accordance with the regulations of DepEd and DOH.

Table 34. VACCINATION STATUS: PERSONNEL

The Vaccination Status shows a great number of vaccinated teaching and non-teaching personnel, however, a resistance on taking
booster shot is also evident.

On the other hand, the Vaccination status of teaching and non-teaching personnel
both in public and private schools has been remarkably successful with 99% of teaching
and 100% of non-teaching personnel being classified as fully vaccinated. However, among
those who are fully vaccinated, 59 % of teaching personnel and 66% of non-
teaching personnel in public schools received the first booster shot while
21% of teaching personnel and 0% of non-teaching personnel in private
schools received the first booster shot.
Mental Health Support

The table shows the various activities conducted to ensure mental health and wellness of learners and school personnel as
adaptive ways to combat personal, mental and global threat during the pandemic.

Being exposed to extremely distressing events such as COVID-19 pandemic may put
learners under a lot of emotional strain that may have a long-term negative impact on their
mental and psychological well-being. With the aim of helping the learners, various activities
such as Stress Management Seminars, Psychological Support, and Online Kumustahan were
conducted to ensure mental health and awareness of both learners and school personnel and
boost adaptive ways to combat personal, mental, and global threats during the pandemic. As
shown in the illustration, 536 schools and 3, 211 learners participated in Online Stress
Management Seminars, 536 schools and 511 learners were provided with Psychological
Support and 10 schools, and 619 learners participated in Online Kumustahan Sessions.

Figure 29
Data from SY 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 revealed that there was a little movement in the levels of performance
due to strict quarantine protocols. In 2021 there were 10 schools that passed the regional accreditation. A notable
increase in the present data of 2021-2022 is highlighted - 12.21% in level 2 and 12.23% in level 3 for the
elementary level and 15.74% in level 2 and 17.89% in level 3 for the secondary level. Accreditation of 10 schools
by the RO became an inspiration of all schools of the SDO to embrace SBM and make it as their way of life in
leadership and governance.

The data shows an increased level of performance both in the elementary and
secondary schools for the Level 3 accreditation conducted by the Regional Office. In
elementary schools, from 310 accredited schools in SY 2019-2020, it became 333 and 387 in
SY 2020-2021 and SY 2021-2022 respectively. This indicates an increase of 12.23% despite
the challenges brought by the new normal setup in the education sector. For Level 2, there is
an improvement of 12.21% with 107, 104, and 50 schools from three consecutive school
years. There are 8 schools that remain in Level 1 in SY 2019-2020 and 5 schools from SY
2020-2022.
For the accreditation of secondary schools, 17.89% is the increase in Level 3 which is
manifested in the trends from SY 2019-2022, in which there are 49, 52, and 85 schools
respectively, have enhanced their performance level. On the other hand, 15.74% is the

Figure 37

The trend of the graph shows the priority improvement of teachers


in attending training. For the Curriculum Year 2020, the emphasis is given
to Curriculum and Planning, which in the two succeeding years, has
declined. Content Knowledge and Pedagogy remains the second priority for
the years 2020 and 2021 but significantly dropped in 2022. The
Community Linkages and Professional Engagement eases in 2021 but
almost the same in the curriculum year 2020 and 2022. On the other
hand, there is a drastic increase in the importance of the following
domains in three consecutive years: Learning Environment, Diversity of
Learners, Assessment and Reporting, and Personal Growth and
Professional Development.

For Curriculum Years 2020 and 2021, the highlight of the training for the School
Heads was the domain for Leading Strategically, which in 2022 declined. Developing
Self and Others was highly given to the School Heads but slowly lessened in the
following two years. Conversely, much of the trainings are focused on the following
domains in three consecutive Curriculum Years: Managing School Operations and
Resources, Focusing on Teaching and Learning, and Building Connections.

Textbooks are essential to students’ learning as these serve as one of their


repositories of knowledge. However, based on the accounted data for School Year 2021-
2022, there were still lapses in the provisions of textbook distribution. In Grade 1,
there were no textbooks in ESP and Science. The latter was also lacking in Grade 2.
Grade 6 students had not received any textbooks in Filipino, English, AP, and Science.
There were none in MAPEH, EPP, and Homeroom Guidance for all Grade 1-6 students.
In secondary, there were no textbooks in English and AP for Grade 8 and Grade
10 respectively. Textbook provisions in Homeroom Guidance, MAPEH, Home
Economics, ICT, and Industrial Arts were not evident from Grades 7-10. Unfortunately,
the Senior High School students have no textbook references in all their subjects which
should be addressed immediately. In response, teachers are trained to craft well-
written supplementary materials and learning resources to bridge this gap in
textbooks.

One of the goals of the Education Department is to provide sufficient
classrooms to every public school to attain the standard ratio, and therefore
facilitate effective and convenient instruction and learning for teachers and
students. In the Division of Bulacan, this is somehow improved as shown in the
figures on the number of classrooms from School Year 2018-2022. In each school
year, there are additional classrooms from Elementary to Senior High School that
slowly suffice the number of students. There are 829 additional classrooms in the
Elementary from 2018-2022, 1,628 are added to Junior High School, and for the
Senior High School, there are 43 newly built classrooms. In all, 2,500 classrooms
are created to narrow the gap of classroom shortage. Apparently, these are not
enough to accommodate all the students based on the standard ratio. For the ratio
of 1:40, there should be 2,608 classrooms, 2,305 for 1:41, 716, and 120 for 1:41
and 1:38 respectively.
Inventory of Teachers

Figure 42

Note: Despite the increase in number every year,


there is still an enormous shortage on the number
of teachers from elementary to senior high school.

Teachers are the key agents in transforming education for the good and
well-being of the students. Their insufficient number in the institution would
mean derailing the teaching and learning process. Based on the data from the
SY 2018-2022, there are only 247 additional teachers in Elementary, while 160
are added in the Secondary, and 183 in Senior High Schools. This is far from
the actual teachers that should be added to the field to comply with the
recommended ratio of teachers to students. For the ratio of 1:32, there are
about 1,186 needed, 1,510 for 1:29, and 559 teachers have to be recruited to
achieve 1:34. This concern is critical to the attainment of quality education and
has to be prioritized to sustain better learning.

A decline of 28 Principals is evident in four years’ time, while an increase
of 5 in Guidance Counselors and 57 in Head Teachers are noted. There are 705
recruited teaching personnel within the four school years and 185 added to
non-teaching personnel.

The SDO Bulacan adheres to the guidelines set by the Civil Service in the
hiring process to ensure that the qualification standards for the positions are met.
The Division continues to employ teachers who are devoted to the profession,
responsible to act on duties, and competent for the holistic transformation of the
students toward lifelong learning. Teachers serve as the faces of the education
institution because they carry on the accountability of honing the students’ future;
hence, they should be adept in the content-knowledge, equipped with skills in
response to what society needs, and have values to uplift the morale of the students,
education institution, and the profession itself.

and vacant positions from 2018-2022. There were 985 added positions from 17,414
in 2018 to 18,399 in 2022. This is to entail an additional workforce who are tasked
to correspond to various works in the institution. From the number of positions in
2022, 17,944 of them are already manned but the remaining 455 are unoccupied.
Within these 5 years, the highest number of unfilled positions was in 2020 with 805.
This can be attributed to the surge of pandemic that caused immobility of personnel
due to restrictions.

Table 44. Financial Accomplishments

One of the best practices that SDO Bulacan can be proud of is its outstanding
financial accomplishment. For the past consecutive years, the division has committed to
provide excellent services, accountability and transparency. Its commitment and compliant
with regulations in properly handling office finances ensures that all its departments stay
on track.

of adjusted appropriations, total obligations, total disbursements, and unobligated
allotments. The data reveals that from FY 2018, 99.1% is the total percentage allotted for
fund' utilizations while, 96.9% is the percentage of disbursement. In FY 2019, there's no
significant difference of utilization percentage, which is 99.4 % while 98.6% disbursement.
It is almost the same in FY 2020, 99.3% utilization and 96.6% disbursement with a
difference of 2% from the previous year. On the other hand, the data shows that in FY
2021, 99.7% is the utilization and 98.5% for disbursement. It is very evident how the
department effectively manages its finances.
SDO Bulacan never stops learning and finding ways to improve the quality of
education in the community by providing means and various innovative ways to help every
learner, teacher, employee, stakeholder, and other members of the organization. To
continuously achieve progress, innovations and conducting research fuels the organization
to ensure outstanding solutions and excellent ideas related to different areas.
In this regard, the Division of Bulacan offers equal opportunities to every teacher,
employee, and other members of the organization to create innovations and present their
scientific and creative ideas through research proposals, either non-funded or under Policy
Research Program (Funded) by the Department of Education.

Financial aid and assistance in conducting research are one of the concerns that
researchers from the division are considering. Thus, the division finds its way to help and
ease researchers with these dilemmas. The Policy Research Program (Funded) becomes the
solution to this concern. Undeniably, the financial aid and assistance provided by the
division serve as the driving force for hardworking researchers and educators to continue
their quest for learning and innovations through research. As shown in the table, from
2015-2021, 61 research proposals were approved and completed under the Policy
Research Program Fund. In the years 2015 and 2016, the division of Bulacan 2017 and
2020 became SDO Bulacan glorious years since a total of 30 research proposals were

To improve the quality of service and for aiming a much better community. The
Policy Research Program (Funded) covers various themes according to the needs of every
department within the organization. It is to make sure that every sector of the organization
is taken care of properly. Teaching and Learning, Child Protection, HRD, Governance,
DRRM, Inclusive Education, and GAD are the common themes they can concentrate in.
Based on the statistics, from 2015-2021 a total of 41 research (67.21%) focusing on
teaching and learning were funded, conducted, and completed, while 1 research work
(1.64%) in 2020 focused on child protection, 15 research (24.59%) on HRD, and 4 research
(6.% 6%) about governance. However, it is still a quest for Bulakenyo researchers to focus
on three other themes DRRM, Inclusive Education, and GAD. Perhaps, the said themes will
be the main focus of research in the coming years. The Division of Bulacan envisions that
more research will be proposed, conducted, and approved in the areas related to DRRM,
Inclusive Education, and GAD for the succeeding years.

noticeable that the Year 2017 received the biggest grant amount of P196, 000.00 while the
years 2015 and 2016 received the smallest funding of P24,000.00 respectively, mainly
because only 4 research were conducted in the said period. In 2018, the division granted a
P66,000.00 fund for those chosen researchers, while P63,000.00 was allotted in 2019. The
amount worth P77,000.00 awarded to deserving researchers in 2020, and
P33,000.00 intended in 2021. The data manifested that the Division of Bulacan only
invested in well-planned research. Research which are worthy and beneficial studies which
we can learn something. The Division of Bulacan always looks forward to the success of
our division in the region.

Undeniably, SDO Bulacan treasures every research proponent who is willing to


devote their time and effort to conduct research for the benefit of the entire community.
For that reason, the division is also extending its open arms to spend for their worthy
studies to recognize their untiring effort and dedication.

Community linkages and support from private individuals and institutions are vital
for a public organization to grow and prosper. Private donations are considered to be one of
the lifelines for the continuity of the organization's various programs. Furthermore, it leads
the way to develop more programs related to the learning environment, learning support,
health and nutritions, reading program, training and development, and direct assistance.
Programs related to Learning environments received the highest donations from private
partners from SY 2018-2019 to SY 2019-2020 and SY 2021-2022. However, a sudden
decrease in donations for SY 2020-2021 where Health and Nutrition became the main
priority due to the pandemic. The data reveals that Learning Environment and Health
Nutrition are two leading areas where most donations were given. On the other hand, the
area for assistive learning devices for students with special needs received the lowest
amount of donations and was placed as the least priority.

Proportion of schools with functional Schools Governing Council


Note: 100% of the schools in the Division both in the
Elementary and Secondary level have functional
School Governing Council (SGC) which is the overall
coordinating body of all committees, associations, and
organizations in the schools that shall translate the
principle of shared governance enshrined in RA 9155
and contribute in strengthening the implementation of
Figure 69 School-Based Management.

To maintain a healthy relationship, proper management, and coordination between


the school and community, School Governance Council has to perform its significant roles
and play its part. As a result, schools from the Division of Bulacan are continuously doing
their share to keep their SGC visible and functional. Providing a forum for parents,
students, teachers, educators, community stakeholders, and the school head to work
hand-in-hand toward continuous improvement of student learning outcomes is the primary
advocacy of all schools in the division. The result shows that 100% of the schools in the
Division of Bulacan both at the Elementary and Secondary levels have a functional School
Governing Council (SGC).

evident that every school year there’s a decrease in the total number of ESC Certified Junior
High School in SDO Bulacan, this probably because of the long lasting effect of the pandemic.
In relation with this data, it is also observable that there’s a drastic change with the total
number of enrolment from Grades 7-10 based on the LIS. The sudden change happened in
the SY 2020-2021 from 83.26% to 78.53% but the year that follows it slowly increased with
the percentage which is 92.71% .

According to the statistics, there are 161 Senior High Schools in SDO Bulacan from SY
2019-2020, 132 SHS Schools with QVRs equivalent to 70.59% comprising 38, 744 total
enrollments based on LIS. An additional number of SHS schools were added in SY 2020-2021
from 161 from the previous school year to 184 but lessened with 2 SHS schools with QVRs. It
is also evident a sudden drop in the number of enrollments for SHS students based on LIS.
On the other hand, SY 2021-2022 shows good improvement as additional 8 more SHS
schools with QVRs added to the list. As a result, the total number of enrollments for SHS has
increased from 37, 118 from the previous SY to 39,696.

Table 54. PERCENTAGE OF PRIVATE SCHOOLS


WITH RECOGNITION AND PERMIT

The table shows the number of private schools with recognition and permit from SY 2019-2020 to SY 2021-2022. The total number of private
schools in the Division decreases from 349 in 2019 to 334 in 2021. Nine schools are given special permit/recognition on Special programs. In
2021, the number of schools with government permit to operate Kindergarten program dropped to 28 schools while schools with government
recognition reaches 310 or 99.10%. In the same SY, 46 schools have government permit to operate Elementary while 331 have government
recognition. There are 24 schools with government permit to operate Junior HS and 215 or 64.37% have government recognition. Finally,
Only Schools with Government Permit and Recognition on Special Programs such as
SPEd, Special Science Curriculum, etc. from Kindergarten up to Senior High School are
allowed by DepEd to operate and provide services among learners they are catering. Close-
monitoring, strict implementation and program evaluation may be tedious and tiring for the
monitoring and evaluating team but not for the Division of Bulacan to make sure that these
permitted and recognized schools are heading in the right track.
The table shows the number of private schools with recognition and permits from SY
2019-2020 to SY 2021-2022. According to the record, the total number of private schools in
the division decreased from 349 in 2019 to 334 in 2021. Nine schools received special
permit/recognition for Special programs. In SY 2021-2022, the number of schools with
government permits to operate Kindergarten dropped to 28 schools from 42 schools during
the previous SY 2020-2021, while schools with government recognition reached 310 (99.10%)
from 268 or (77.68%)of the previous SY 2020-2021. In the same SY 2021-2022, 46 schools
have a government permit to operate Elementary while 331 schools have government
recognition. On the other hand, 24 schools with government permits to operate Junior HS,
and 215 (64.37% ) have government recognition. Finally, 148 (44.31%) schools have a
government permit to operate Senior HS in 2021-2022. The data manifested that the School
Year 2021-2022 is continuously moving forward as more private schools with recognition and
permit are thriving after the first two years of pandemic.
ACCESS

Presented above
is the SWOT analysis
for the access domain.
It shows that the
strengths of the SDO
Bulacan in ensuring
quality and equitable
education are: 1. high
net enrollment rate in
elementary; 2. high
gross enrollment rate in
elementary; 3. high
gross enrollment in the
ALS program; 4. high
gross enrollment in
inclusive education; and Figure 70
5. intensive mapping of OSAs and OSYs in the division. These strengths of the SDO Bulacan
contribute meaningfully to the well-implemented K–12 curriculum and to ensuring the
attainment of the DepEd’s vision and mission. Meanwhile, after thorough scrutinization of
relevant data, it found that the weaknesses of the SDO Bulacan are: 1. a high percentage of
school dropouts; 2. a low completion rate in JHS and SHS; 3. school-less barangays,
especially in JHS and SHS; and 4. a high number of unvaccinated students. These concerns
require immediate action by initiating appropriate programs and projects and constant
monitoring and evaluation. Despite the determined problems, the following served as
opportunities and ways to lessen the stench of the SDO Bulacan. These are: 1. supportive
local government units; and 2. strong public-private partnerships. These may be properly
utilized in making decisions and plans to better improve the practices and implementations of
SDO Bulacan on various projects and programs centered on the improvement of the service of
the agency to its constituents. Lastly, the threats that must be included in the contingency
plan are the following: 1. Existence of COVID-19; 2. Land dispute between schools and heirs;
3. Non-availability of buildable space for classrooms Prioritizing these issues to address is
pivotal to making sure that the SDO Bulacan will properly implement its plans and programs.

EQUITY
The Division of
Bulacan is proud in its
accomplishment of
providing teachers
who are trained on
special education who
are assigned in SPED
classes and the
availability of
makeshift classrooms
for IPED learners.
On the other
hand, the office is
struggling in its
limited number of the
following:
Figure 71
SPED teacher items to accommodate different types of SPED learners, teachers accepting
teaching assignment in IPED schools, and the schools offering SPED program.
Meanwhile, stakeholders’ engagement on the IPED program implementation and
literacy volunteers for IPED schools are considered as the opportunities that the division is
facing.
Lastly, the following are considered as the threats in delivering its services: limitations
in construction of school building for IPED schools due to location, weather conditions and
terrain that exposes IPED teachers to risks and possibility of armed conflicts in IPED schools’
locations.

QUALITY
As part of the
strategic planning to
improve the quality of
education and to stay
ahead of the
educational trends,
SWOT Analysis
(Strengths, Weaknesses,
Opportunities, Threats)
was conducted. Results
showed that the
provision of different
curricular programs to
meet the needs of
different types of
learners is the strength
Figure 71 or the best practice of

the quality domain. These programs include SCP, SPED, Madrasah, IpED, ALS, accreditation,
and equivalency. On the contrary, the weaknesses identified were the failure of learners to
meet the minimum required proficiency level of the PISA Simulation Test for Junior High
School and the need of learners in Key Stage 1 to undergo remediation in English and Filipino
reading skills and numeracy skills in Mathematics. Despite these, the Division of Bulacan
views the Brigada Pagbasa as an opportunity to address learners' reading skills as the
program has been intensified in the school year 2022-2023 and is expected to be given more
focus in the next school years. On the other hand, mismatch in career opportunities and
employability of Senior High School graduates, together with the sustainability of their
entrepreneurial career and pandemic-driven learning losses are viewed as threats which could
serve as baseline data for future intervention programs and innovations to improve the quality
of education.

RESILIENCY AND WELL-BEING


SDO Bulacan has been an impeccable example of success in Resiliency and Well-
Being. According to a SWOT analysis, SDO Bulacan has strong points in the following areas:
Localized child protection policy. Availability of data on child protection cases as a result of
reporting, Enhanced RADAR reporting system. Trained DRRM coordinators on the provision
of Psychological First Aid, Sustainability of School-Based Feeding Program Funds from the
National Office. The Division Office is actively trying to reduce the number of reported child
protection cases, promote immunization among students, and provide efficient coordination of
communication among the Central Office (CO), Regional Office (RO), and Schools Division
Office (SDO).
With all of these, an
opportunity to secure
active engagement of
external stakeholders
can be achieved. With
these, SDO Bulacan
continues to be diligent
and responsive in
effectively addressing
the weaknesses and
threats that have been
foreseen to be relevant
to changing norms.

remarkable hard work
and unity of education leaders, teachers, and administrative personnel are truly the
manifestation of dedication to fulfill the educational goals of the SDO Bulacan during the
pandemic’s new learning setup. The challenges brought about by the pandemic also become
opportunities to utilize localized resources, integrate technology, and employ the talent and
skills of people in the field so that learning continues despite adversities. It is the incessant
mission of SDO Bulacan to provide the whole community with highly skilled and competent
students who are ready to face the demands of post-pandemic education.
The SWOT analysis details the collaborative effort of the organization in determining
the key aspects of education in the most unexpected situation. It is shown that SDO Bulacan
has strong areas in education leaders and teaching force who are highly competent,
dedicated, distinguished, and highly proficient. These people are the education front liners
who have the toughest responsibility in transforming the teaching and learning process. It is
also notable the quality management system of the organization, the availability of quality-
assured learning materials, the existing and functional Adopt-a-School program and related
partnerships, and
rapport relationships
within and among
employees. Another
highlight of this report
is the opportunities to
utilize the suitable
modality for learning

The table above presents the key challenges in the access domain. Based on
the BEIS, there are a number of public JHS and SHS in remote barangays that
need to be prioritized in terms of allocation of learning resources, capacity building
focusing on innovation and research, and health support. In terms of construction,
SDO Bulacan is facing problems with available buildable space for classroom
construction, as reflected in the School Site Development Plan. This is an important
concern as the students need to have a conducive learning environment to be
actively engaged in the teaching-learning process. For the time being, there are still
unvaccinated learners and teachers, according to the data on number of
unvaccinated learners and teachers. Continued encouragement of teachers and
students to be vaccinated is highly encouraged, as it is a necessity in the
implementation of face-to-face learning mode.

The Key Challenges identified in the Quality domain include proficiency


levels in various learning areas such as the reading skills in English and Filipino,
numeracy skills in mathematics, and basic science skills. These challenges exist in
all Key Stages. To resolve these challenges, their bases or the programs that target
proficiency levels shall be enhanced according to the learners' needs. These bases
include the reading assessment in English and Filipino, Project All Numerates
(PAN), report of learning outcomes in Science, and PISA Simulation Result.
Another challenge is the assessment which was based on assessment tools,
Division test bank, standardization of assessment tools across all subject areas in
different levels and computer-based assessment. Assessment is a vital part of
education it determines if the objectives or goal of learning are met. In addition,
providing valid and reliable assessment tools allows teachers to truly measure
students' learning which could serve as a basis in remediation or enhancement.
Content mastery and mechanisms on the proper implementation of learning
delivery in face-to-face classes are also some of the challenges in the Quality
Domain which was determined through the results of classroom observation,
reports on most and least learned MELCs, identification of level in Bloom's
Taxonomy, and identification of issues and concerns on the implementation of
learning delivery in face-to-face classes. Because the teacher is the key factor in
classroom learning, there is a need to intensify intervention programs in this area.

Lastly, the Tracer Study Results showed a need to enhance students'


learning experience to enhance the curriculum exits of Senior High School
Graduates. DepEd Bulacan targets high education and employment rates among its
graduates, thus, higher quality of education is required.

In yielding to the prescribed standards to sustain the delivery of quality


education through appropriate, timely, and relevant programs, projects, and
activities and overcoming challenges through unity and collaborative teamwork and
education. SDO Bulacan scrutinized its strategies and identified the key factors
crucial in promoting resiliency among learners, teachers, and personnel.

In support of Resiliency and Well-being, Pillar 4 has highlighted eight challenges


that must be addressed. These are the following:

• Reported cases on child protection concerns. According to reported cases, an


increase in incidents of bullying and teenage pregnancy has been evident.
• Number of teachers / DRRM coordinators trained on First Aid with
accreditation by PDRRMO.
• Mental Health: Provision of Psychosocial Support to Teachers, Personnel, and
Learners.
• Covid-19 cases among teachers, learners, and personnel
• Number of Unvaccinated Teachers, Learners, and Personnel. 77 % of 5-11-year-
olds (215,485 pupils) and 36 % of 12-18-year-olds (59,129 students) remained
unvaccinated. Resistance to receiving booster shots among teaching and non-
teaching personnel has been observed.
• Beneficiaries of SBFP
• Cooperation of parents on releasing consents to learners for basic school-based
deworming and vaccination.
• Support a priority given by the school heads and authorities on the
implementation of school health programs.

The stated key challenges in SDO Bulacan are supported by thorough assessments
in the various areas of school management and operations. There are four areas of
focus that arise from the data:

1. School Administration and Transactions


2. Performance of Teachers and their Resources
3. Stakeholders’ Engagement
4. Report on Private Schools.
The next phase of school operations is the recovery from the lapses and gaps in
the overall functions of the organization which affects the quality of teaching and
learning. For the challenges in school administration and transactions, the
emphasis is given to the policies that govern the SBM and the latter’s level of
practice and sustainability, financial allocation, mobilization of resources,
managing the teaching and non-teaching personnel, access to education in remote
places, and manual implementation of business transactions. The school leaders
are tasked to perform with utmost accuracy and responsibility to duly act on these
challenges for the betterment of rendering services to the school community.

Meanwhile, there are demands on the performance of teachers in the current


recovery stage and in the coming years which has something to do with their
expertise and personal and professional growth that will hone their mastery and
skills. The teachers are the primary catalysts in the learning recovery stage
because of their significant roles in the teaching and learning process. They should
be armed with moral support, sufficient and quality-assured resources, and
inclusive training. In this connection, it cannot be denied the enormous
importance of the stakeholders’ participation in education. However, their
sustained engagement with school undertakings becomes a challenge because of
economic factors that could affect potential partnerships and learning support.

Private schools are the partners of government in accommodating students and


in giving them quality learning. Among the challenges of this institution are the
results of their assessment, their financial grant, and certifications. SDO Bulacan
is committed to provide assistance both to public and private schools in all aspects
of their operations to assure that quality education continues.
Figure 77

LIST OF PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS

Early Registration
Every school year, SDO Bulacan joins DepEd in the early preparation
for the incoming class opening through the Early Registration usually held
during the last quarter of the school year. All incoming Kindergarten, Grades
1, 7 and 11 learners in all public and private schools shall simultaneously
pre-register to allow the Department to make necessary plans and
preparations for the incoming school year. Daily Early Registrations update is
being encoded and monitored in the Learner Information System (LIS) facility.
The Modified Basic Education Enrollment Form is utilized to facilitate the
registration of learners.

Figure 78

In the context of a public health emergency or crisis, enrolment is done


remotely in high-risk areas under heightened public health alert levels where
health and safety protocols must be strictly observed.

Balik Eskwela Campaign Drive

To ensure that learners from public and private schools especially those
who have dropped out from school are properly enrolled, SDO Bulacan holds
Oplan Balik-Eskwela Campaign Drive. The campaign drive is an avenue to
address parents’ and learners’ problems, queries and other concerns.
Clarifying school policies, projects and programs relevant to the opening of
classes are also some of its major goals.
Schools within the division are
instructed to provide help desks,
hotlines, school emails, contact numbers
of focal persons, school social media
accounts for a better and more open
communication with enrollees and
guardians. Enrolment Forms may be
accessed online or hard copies may be
acquired from the enrolment boxes in
schools or in the barangay offices.

With the help of the Local Government Units, the schools do their best to do a
mapping to locate specially the out of school youths within the community and
encourage them to re-enroll. Other partner agencies such as the Department of
Health (DOH), Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), Department of
the Interior and Local Government (DILG) and other stakeholders are also tapped to
extend their support and provide guidelines on health, safety, peace and order.

Alternative Learning System


The Alternative Learning System (ALS) is an equivalent education and learning
system in the Philippines that provides opportunities for out-of-school youth and
adult (OSYA) learners to develop basic and functional literacy skills, and to access
equivalent pathways to complete basic education.
It aims to empower OSYA learners to continue learning in a manner, time and
place appropriate to their preference and situations, and for them to achieve their
goals of improving their quality of life and becoming productive contributors to society.

Schools Division Office of Bulacan, ALS is


extensively implemented as part of the
inclusive education, , in as much as children
in the official school age who are not enrolled
in elementary or secondary school due to
special cases such as economic, geographic,
political, cultural, or social barriers, including
learners with disabilities or special conditions,
indigenous peoples, children in conflict with
the law, learners in emergency situations, and
other marginalized sectors are being catered
and addressed. At these times, most of the
school districts in the entire division are
implementing the program in all
aforementioned special cases to give them
access to basic quality education.
Through the active collaboration of the SDO Bulacan with the Local Government
Units and other stakeholders, the ALS program is tremendously in its high peak of
implementation.
Special Education Program

One indication of SDO Bulacan’s


commitment to promote Inclusive
Education is its active implementation of
the Special Education Non-Graded
Program to school-aged children with
special needs. This program is offered to
children who have been previously
assessed and certified by licensed
Developmental Pediatricians to need
special education.
Through this program, children
with Autism, Intellectual Disability,
Cerebral Palsy, Hearing Impairment,
Visual Challenges, and other special
cases, are provided with opportunities to
learn and nurture the talents bestowed
upon them.

SPED Non-Graded learners are taught


knowledge and skills according to their needs and
within their capabilities to enable them to
participate effectively in the society. They may be
handled by the SPED teacher individually or in
small groups, depending on their cases. They are
taught life skills that enable them to develop
independence in some aspects of life, including
but not limited to taking care of themselves and
their environment.

SPED Non-Graded Program also offers The


Transition Program that provides the SPED
learners the opportunity to take active involvement
at home, in the society and even at work.

The SPED Program also offers opportunities for the SPED learners to learn and study
in mainstream Graded classes. As some school-aged children may have special needs, some
of them are also capable of learning in mainstream classes. SDO Bulacan assures that
these children are accepted and welcomed in mainstream classes where further learning and
nurturing are provided to them. These SPED learners attending mainstreamed classes also
report to their SPED teacher for continuous guidance, nurturing and assessment of their
progress in school.

Indigenous People Education Program

SDO Bulacan is one with the


DepEd family in recognizing the culture,
values and traditions of our Filipino
brothers and sisters belonging to
Indigenous communities. Adhering to
DepEd Order No. 62, s. 2011 on the
Institutionalization of Indigenous People
Education Program, SDO Bulacan
strives to reach out to the Indigenous
People in our province to provide them
quality education enriched with their
own culture, values and traditions.
Multigrade Education Program

The Multigrade Program in


Philippine Education (MPPE) is one of
the DepEd programs that promotes
Inclusive Education by reaching out to
the learners even in the far-flung barrios
and remote areas. As there are learners
affected by geographical barriers or low
school population, SDO Bulacan ensures
that the right to education of every child
is upheld by providing them access to
education. Multigrade schools in SDO
Bulacan offer the same quality of
education delivered in Monograde
Schools. With two-three teachers, a
multigrade school strives to keep school-
aged children in school and promote
literacy. With this program, SDO
Bulacan ensures that education is
accessed by everyone, even those residing
in mountainous areas, islands or coastal
areas.

MADRASAH Education Program

The Madrasah Education Program (MEP) is


a response to the needs of our Muslim brothers
and sisters to learn Arabic and Muslim Culture and
Values in school. Recognizing the importance of
Arabic language in their prayer life and the need to
develop the Muslim culture and values among our
Muslim learners, SDO Bulacan advocates the
implementation of MEP in schools with at least
fifteen (15) Muslim learners.
Recently, SDO Bulacan has opened the
MEP in ten public elementary schools to cater to
the needs of the growing Muslim population in
Bulacan.

Recently, SDO Bulacan has opened the MEP in ten public elementary schools to cater
to the needs of the growing Muslim population in Bulacan.
Flexible Learning Options

Department of Education - SDO Bulacan has been offering flexible learning options
(FLOs), which it defines learning interventions and pathways that are responsive to the needs,
context, circumstances, and diversity of learners.
The DepEd Bulacan provides various learning
delivery options in order not only to meet the needs of
various learners cognizant of their contexts and
capabilities but also allow flexibilities in their
education in terms of how content is taught, where to
study, when to study and how to measure their
learning. Delivery of learning can be provided through
direct teachers’ provision of instructions, content
delivery using instructional resources
(modules/online) and learners study independently
with planned scheduled engagement with the DepEd
teachers; others are using TV, radio, printed
resources, and learners also study independently with
scheduled engagement with the mobile teachers.
Alternative Delivery Mode

Alternative delivery modes (ADMs) offer solutions that may help learners outside of
the regular school system acquire the needed basic education competencies and life skills.
The learning delivery modalities preferred
by parents and learners are MDL (Print),
Blended Learning, and ODL. The learning
delivery modalities included in "Others" are
MDL (Digital), TV-Radio Based Instruction and
Homeschooling. These ADMs are intensified in
the SDO Bulacan to primarily give access and
opportunities to learners needing these
schemes.

The Basic Educational Facilities Fund


(BEFF) is an annual budget of the Department of
Education for its School Building Program which
covers the improvement and maintenance of
school facilities. It shall be utilized for the
provision of classroom and workshop buildings,
replacement of old and dilapidated buildings,
provision of furniture, repair and rehabilitation of
classrooms, including heritage
buildings, as well as water and
sanitation facilities, and
electrification. Moreover, the School
Building Program under BEFF of the
Department Education aims to
address the classroom gaps in high
priority schools nationwide.

Distribution of Crucial Resources . SDO Bulacan works to provide all students


with the resources required to create the kind of experiences they need to meet rigorous
academic expectations and succeed in our fast-changing information and technology-
based society. Raising achievement for all and closing the gaps, is clearly possible with
the equitable allocation and smart use of resources. To attain equity and create equitable
learning experiences for all learners, the Division warrants equal distribution of teachers,
non-teaching personnel and even equal distribution of learning materials in all schools in
Bulacan in the next six years. Students who come to school with greater needs require
greater resources to reach the same high learning outcomes. Providing more funds is
inadequate — resources must be organized in strategic ways that accelerate student
learning. There is a need to identify when students are denied the resources they need to
succeed, then school and systems leaders, advocates, and policymakers can have a clear,
fact-based discussion about what needs to change to provide resource equity. Proper
allocation of resources must be done to ensure and attain equity in all the elementary and
secondary schools in the Division of Bulacan.
QUALITY

Figure 80

Pillar 3, Quality, has its three flagship programs and these are given through letters
K-E-N in completing the word Bulakenyo: letter K stands for Kindling the core values of
DepEd – Maka-Diyos, Makatao, Makabansa and Makakalikasan, letter E stands for
Enhancing instructions through digital technology thus introducing Education 4.0 and
letter N stands for Nurturing the learners with 21st century skills to become productive,
and globally competitive Filipino citizens.

With its flagship programs, the goal is to ensure quality education for all learners
across grade levels equipped with competencies in literacy, numeracy, scientific skills,
technical-vocational skills, and other curricular competencies.

The intermediate outcome is for Bulakenyo learners to acquire literacy, numeracy,


science and 21st century skills and to develop positive character to succeed in their choice
of career.

With the strategy of intensifying the implementation of literacy, numeracy, and life-
skills programs across disciplines, the key challenges are proficiency levels, assessment,
content mastery and curriculum exits of SHS graduates.

This pillar has different programs and projects that will cater for the next 6 years
and these are the following:

which the primary objective is to produce capable
learners in the field of Mathematics in terms of
their numeracy skills.

Primarily, this flagship program of the Mathematics area aims to enhance the
Mathematical abilities of all learners in the terms of the four fundamental operations and
problem-solving skills which lead in uplifting the critical thinking skills of the learners as
part of HOTS. The project also gives technical knowledge to the learners to utilize on-line
assessment through teachers’ assistance. The PAN 4.0 has the following objectives,
specifically:

• Diagnose the learners’ numeracy skills on fundamental and essential competencies


through division-wide pretest to all grades 1 to 7 learners;
• Train learners of capable schools to accomplish the test through on-line platform
available;
• Develop intervention plans appropriate to the identified least learned competencies;
• Encourage teachers to consider the results as the baseline of continuous improvement
programs;
• Obtain learners’ profile in terms of output;
• Monitor intervention program implementation;
• Assess learners’ progress through division-wide posttest; and
• Develop sustainability plan for numerates and continuation of intervention program for
the nearly and non-numerates.
Aside from Project All Numerates there are other inclusive projects that support Project All
Numerates 4.0 (PAN 4.0) for implementation in 2022-2028 and these are the following:

❑ Project APAW/APAD@E4.0 (Project A Problem A Week/Project A Problem A


day@E4.0). This project aims to enhance learners’ ability in dealing with problem-
solving likewise to develop learners’ critical thinking through answering basic to
complex problems on different math competencies and the mathematical problem is
sent to the learners through flipped classroom.

one part of the lesson but also to incorporate other competencies in most parts of the
lesson if not entire.

PROJECTS in TLE LEARNING AREA

PROJECT PAG-ASA (Pagtatanim ay Alamin Gulay ay Anihin Sustansiya Ating


lasapin) is a continuous improvement project initiated by the Curriculum and
Implementation Division-SDO Bulacan under the supervision of Dr. Joel I. Vasallo,
Education Program Supervisor for EPP/TLE/TVL.

The key customers of this project are the learners who are taking Agricultural Crops
Production specialization in the whole division. This aims to enhance Agri-Crop learners in
TLE/TVE/TVL through a Project Home-Based activity applying Pag-Asa system.

The Pag-Asa system carries through entrusting the seedlings to the caretakers who will
provide all the facilities and medium for planting vegetable crops. Moreover, vegetable
production will be observed and monitored for record keeping purposes. ROI or return of
investment will be the part basis of attaining the objective of the project.

Due to limited space in the school premises, the team finalizes to use the home-
based project of growing vegetable crops. The home-based project’s main objective is to
apply and enhance learner’s competency in Agricultural Crop Production NC II particularly
growing vegetables at home applying Pag-Asa system.
It is envisioned that the Project PAG-ASA will:
a. serve as an instrument to enhance the
competencies of learners in the application of
growing vegetable crops even at home;
b. hone the learners’ skills in growing vegetable crops
that can be used for family consumption and future
business venture;
c. develop the values of resourcefulness, diligence,
sense of responsibility, and love of nature among
students; and
d. develop good attitude of students towards
Agriculture Project.
PROJECT PA-IWI (Paghahayupa’y Arali’t Itaguyod para sa Wastong Impormasyon) is a
continuous project for sustainable farming in support to the curricular programs
spearheaded by Dr. Joel I. Vasallo, Education Program Supervisor in EPP/TLE/TVE of
CID-SDO Bulacan. The beneficiaries of this are SPTVE learners who specialize Animal
Production (Poultry-Chicken) in Technical and Vocational Education through Home-Based
project.

The Pa-Iwi system is the traditional Paalaga system in which a poultry or livestock
owner entrusts their animals to a caretaker if they have the facilities. After the maturity
period of the poultry or livestock, the total amount being earned once the animals are sold
will be divided between the owner and the caretaker.

TechVoc Schools can utilize their trust fund as capital of their income generating
projects. The learners are provided by chicks as their stocks but they need to provide
house/pen, feeds, and proper management until it reaches its required age and ready for
market.

The primary goal of this project is


to apply and enhance learner’s
competency in rearing poultry-chicken at
home applying Pa-iwi system.
Specifically, SPTVE-Animal
Production learners will:
a. provide a real-life experience in
rearing poultry-chicken;
b. develop and enhance their skills and
talents in rearing and managing
poultry-chicken;
c. utilize strategies in marketing the
meat product produced from their
home-based project; and
d. realize the importance of poultry
industry and need to be sustained

Project ATM (Asset Tagging Management). SDO Bulacan is considered as one of the
largest public educational institutions in the country in terms of its enrollees with more
than five hundred thousand learners as population. With this number, the department
ensures and provides adequate technical tools and equipment to support learner’s
development.

To equip the needs of the school


personnel, teachers, learners, and stakeholders
in terms of technology advancement, the
teaching-learning process should enhance and
meet the challenges of the 21st century and
DepEd is also responding to the TVL-LTE backlog
of public schools. As one of the many recipients
of this program, schools in Deped-Bulacan has
been receiving various quantity of different TVL-
LTE packages every school year. The numerous
TVL tools and equipment are considered as
school properties and the school heads, property
custodians and their respective coordinators
together with their laboratory managers/teachers
are responsible in maintaining the said tools and
equipment.
The manual process of managing the asset of the school properties oftentimes causes a lot
of problems such as unidentified custody, inaccurate data, and no proper tagging of tools
and equipment.

The Project ATM or Project Asset Tagging Management can address these recurring
problems that hinder the proper inventory and tracking system of this institution. In
addition, it would easily identify the custodian of the tools and equipment, prevent the
items from misplacing, missing, avoiding the loss of assets and allow a transparency and
accountability for the property. Through the use of this innovation, schools and offices will
have a systematized process in asset tagging and record keeping.

This asset tagging is only a portion of the whole asset management concept which will be
developed in our division. Part of this innovation idea includes proper project proposal and
budget request review, integration of computer-generated forms and template, real-time
asset inventory update, optimization, and monitoring of usage of school assets, and
inclusion of all the tools, equipment, and all asset inventory of the school and offices.

Project ATM intends to:


• synergize all schools and offices in DepEd-Bulacan in ensuring the proper
implementation of asset management system;
• systematize the flow of monitoring, identification, tracking and controlling of assets
particularly tools and equipment; and
• ensure awareness and accountability on all DepEd personnel the crucially of asset
management.

PROJECT CompETENCE (Competence


Expressed Through Extensive National
Certification Eligibility) is focused on
eligibility as concrete evidence of one’s
competence over one’s career path. This
project compels to enable people who have
the skills and potentials to obtain a National
Certification (NC) from the Technical
Education and Skills Development Authority
(TESDA) through a non-profit endeavor
designed to uplift the productivity and life
skills of learners by training and leading
them into taking the NC assessment on
SHS-TVL specialization through the
assistance provided by various stakeholders.

This project applies to all Secondary Schools with Grades 11 and 12 Technical-
Vocational Livelihood Track-learners. The need to conduct this project is caused by the fact
that from the very start of offering TVL, it is clearly reported that NC Assessment is just a
voluntary option of SHS-TVL learners.

The project is envisioned for six (6) years of implementation and intervention, and it is
expected that it will produce 100% passers on TESDA National Certification on the
learner’s chosen specialization.

PROJECT 1MORE(1 Municipality, One Rural Farm School for Education 4.0) is a
project supporting the establishment of Rural Farm Schools in all municipalities in the
province of Bulacan as per Regional Memorandum No. 426, s. 2022.

Republic Act (RA) No. 10618 is entitled An Act Establishing Rural Farm School as
Alternative Delivery Mode of Secondary Education, otherwise known as Rural Farm School
Act.
The Rural Farm School (RFS) program aims to
provide a facilitative and experiential learning
on the core subjects of the K to 12 curriculum
that is focused on agri-fisheries and is designed
to address the needs of children in rural,
agricultural and fishing communities.

Specifically, the RFS intends to provide integral


formation or personal development on human,
social, moral, spiritual, and professional
development with a life project that focused on
family enterprise project for learners and
families in the rural communities and an agent
of rural development focused on social
economic, political and human development.
The RFS program follows the core competencies of the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum
for Junior and Senior High School. In addition to these core competencies, adds-on
curriculum as identified by the local family farm or rural association and community as
their learning needs can be categorized into themes/topics. It emphasizes on agri-fishery,
forestry, farm entrepreneurship, community development, education for sustainable
development, and other community specific topics.

The alternance system of formation or other alternative delivery modes as approved


by the DepEd may be used in the curriculum implementation of the RFS program.
Assessment of student learning shall be in accordance with the existing guidelines of the
DepEd.

Presently, SDO Bulacan has launched three (3) pilot school implementers of the
program and these are: Sapang Bulac HS at DRT, Angat NHS at Angat, and Gabihan HS in
the Municipality of San Ildefonso last November 2, 2022.

Project Mabuting Asal, Matuwid na Buhay@ESP 4.0

With the flagship program of SDO-Bulacan in developing learners who are not only
Maka-Diyos, Makatao, Makakalikasan and Makabansa but also for them to be empathetic,
smart, alert, strong, kind and brave digital citizens. Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao (EsP) is
deemed itself responsible for producing graduates who are not only technologically savvy
but also with a heart capable of love, respect, understanding, and a lot more of the human
values needed to co-exist in a fast- changing technological society.

This project’s goal is to ensure


the following:
1. Implement EsP K-12 Curriculum
and is at par with modern
technology the Department of
Education has to offer;
2. Develop digital assessment such as
formative and summative;
3. Develop learning contextualized,
localized teaching and materials
digital and in print; and
4. Develop self-paced digital learning
materials.
Below are the programs and projects of Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao:

❑ Project (MYMO) Mind Your Manners Online is a series of capacity-building seminar


aims at developing responsible, global digital citizen through integration of Education
4.0, a desired approach to learning that aligns itself with the fourth industrial
revolution.

❑ MYMO is a project that aims at producing learners who are not only adept in use of
modern technology but also to be empathetic digital citizens as well. The project will
utilize the BIA or the Be Internet Awesome Website Service through SDO Bulacan ICT
personnel and resource persons for teacher’s capacity building.

❑ Project AKDA or Activity, Knowledge, Dependable, Authorship is a project gears


towards the continuous development of LRMDS quality-assured and validated teaching
and learning materials, NEAP accredited trainings, capacity building, seminar-
workshops and as well as the production of quality-assured evaluative materials like
interactive quiz, summative and formative, and other tests. The project also aims to
develop video lessons and digital instructional materials designed to be completed at the
student’s own pace, that will be accessible in the Division of Bulacan LRMDS portal. A
self-paced learning is a process where students can complete learning tasks at a speed
that is customized to their personal levels of mastery. This means they may take longer
with material they struggle with, skip topics that cover material they already know, or
repeat topics as needed (Bray & McClaskey, 2010).

PROJECT SCIENCE CONTENT AND PROCESS SKILLS (PRO-SCIE4.0) TOWARDS


Education 4.0

The Science Framework for Philippine Basic Education Science that is clearly
defined by the Department of Science and Technology-Science Education Institute (DOST-
SEI, 2011) is both content and process. Science content and Science process are
intertwined. The value of Science processes is to advance content or the body of
knowledge. Without content, students will have difficulty utilizing the Science process
skills. Science processes cannot exist in a vacuumhe but they are learned in context.

To align with Program CoRE @ Education 4.0 (Content enhancement and


development of learning resources, Remediation, Enrichment and intensification
through assessment and technical assistance) of the Curriculum Implementation
Division in all learning areas, the Science learning area focuses on its flagship project
known as Project Science Content And Process Skills. Basically, the project aims to
strengthen the scientific, technological and environmental literacy of learners by means of
various pedagogical interventions and strategies as well as HOTS-based assessment.

Specifically, PRO-SCIE4.0 aims to:


1. monitor and evaluate the program implementation of the regular and special Science
curriculum;
2. establish learners’ profile in Science towards enhancement of content and process
skills;
3. departmentalize Science assessment in all key stages through online test item bank;
4. obtain profile of Science teachers as to their trainings in teaching Science as a learning
area;
5. capacitate Science teachers on content and assessment strategies with emphasis on
design thinking, familiarization with educational technologies, and Structure of
Observed Learning Outcomes (SOLO) taxonomy that will help learners develop critical
thinking skills;
6. reassess Science learning resources that are ICT-based;
7. provide professional opportunities and recognition of Science teachers; and
8. craft policy recommendations in the implementation of regular and special Science
curricular programs (i.e., Special Science Elementary Schools, Science Technology and
Engineering in JHS, and Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics in SHS).
Inclusive of PRO-SCIE4.0 are the following projects for implementation in 2023-2028:

❑ Project Basic Science Skills

across grade levels. Moreover, this undertaking includes preparation of prototype daily
lesson plans in 5Es framework for the elementary and 7Es framework for the secondary
levels.

❑ Project Scientific Research Skills (Scie-Research@E4.0) – This project showcases the


annual Science and Technology Fair that promotes scientific investigation and scientific
writing among learners across grade levels. It is a problem/project-based learning that
is geared towards the development of their 21st century skills namely critical thinking,
communication skills, creativity, problem solving, perseverance, collaboration,
information literacy, technology skills, and digital literacy. Moreover, this is particularly
intended for Special Curricular Programs in Science like the SSES, STE, and STEM.

❑ Project Environmental Education (Pro–Environment@E4.0) – This project supports


the Youth for Environment in Schools Organization (YES-O) in elementary and
secondary schools. In line with the finalization of the Environmental Education Program
Policy for Curriculum and Instruction across the Bureaucracy, Pro–Environment@E4.0
focuses on responsible stewardship of nature (i.e.Makakalikasan) as one of the core
values of DepEd.

❑ Project Laboratory Resources Management (Pro-Lab Management@E4.0) – This is


aligned with the DepEd’s procurement of learning tools and equipment for Science and
Mathematics (DepEd Order No. 020, s.2022) to enhance the quality of teaching and
learning Science and Mathematics subjects through hands-on and minds-on authentic

education. The Pro-Lab Management@E4.0 will use technology to improve the
monitoring and evaluation of laboratory learning tools and equipment inventory,
optimize Science laboratory operations to maximize teaching and learning, and develop
scientific inquiry and technological skills among learners.
PROJECT SWAC

Before the start of the pandemic, the club’s flagship program is Project School
Waste Assortment Corner or Project SWAC. This project is encouraged and instilled in
every classroom on campus. However, due to the constraints of the pandemic, the project
was turned into HWAC or Home-based Assortment Corner. In this program, waste
segregation is encouraged among the students of San Miguel National High School. The
waste in their homes is separated into Biodegradables from Non-Biodegradables.

This program aims to promote and support solid waste management among the
students, especially in their homes and to foster environmentalism among families and
individuals. The practice of the 3Rs: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle is promoted among the
participating young environmentalists. Specifically, this program aims to:
a. segregate wastes and reduce the amount of trash that needs processing;
b. observe the cleanliness and orderliness of the environment;
c. promote environmentalism among the students and faculty; and
d. encourage students in practicing 3Rs at home.

COLLECTION OF EMPTY BOTTLES

Plastic pollution has been a consistent and persistent problem that has been
afflicting communities in the municipality. Many plastic wastes are littered in the streets
and some are not even recycled and are immediately thrown in landfills. The Collection of
Empty bottles is a program in which students in every classroom are encouraged to collect
their plastic empty bottles which are then converted into cash that will become funds for
the club and its activities. The pandemic hindered this collection and now, students are
encouraged to separate plastic bottles and send them to proper authorities that recycle
plastic bottles.

This project aims to raise awareness of the current situation of plastic pollution in
the area. Students are encouraged to be part of the solution and practice solid waste
management in their homes. Specifically, this project aims to:
a. minimize garbage at home and convert the trash into cash;
b. the cleanliness and orderliness of the school despite this pandemic;
c. encourage students to practice solid waste management at home; and
d. minimize plastic pollution in our community.
ENVIRO-STAR LANTERN MAKING CONTEST

The Enviro-Star Lantern Making Contest is a program conducted by the YES-O


Club of SMNHS and held at the end of every year. This is in line with the holidays
especially Christmas season and its aim is to promote resourcefulness, eco-friendliness,
and patronage of sustainable and renewable materials in art making. Participants are
tasked to make a lantern made from recycled and indigenous materials.

This contest aims to advocate environmental sustainability by recycling and


repurposing waste into something new – into an art form. Above all, it emphasizes the
advocacy behind the activity which is to learn how to lessen the garbage in school, home,
and community. Specifically, this project aims to:
a. develop students’ talent and skill in lantern making using recycled materials;
b. help minimize the use of non-biodegradable materials;
c. encourage resourcefulness and patronage of sustainable materials; and
d. lessen and repurpose non-biodegradable waste into artwork.

CLEAN-UP DRIVE

One of the main goals of the


YES-O club of SMNHS is to maintain
the cleanliness and orderliness of the
community. Especially during the
pandemic, vectors of diseases and
illnesses have been fostered and it is a
threat to the well-being of students.
This program, Clean-up Drive, aims to
encourage the student- body to clean
and organize their homes which can
easily be done without the need for
complicated steps and instruments.

This program’s objective is to get rid of vectors of diseases that might pose a potential
threat to the health of individuals and promote sustainable practices and encourage eco-
friendly choices. Specifically, this program aims to:
a. prevent the spread of vectors of diseases that may arise due to dirty environment;
b. maintain the cleanliness and orderliness of the school despite the pandemic;

d. promote eco-friendly practices that can be done in the comfort of their homes.
YES-O GARDEN (SEEDBANK AND
NURSERY)

One of the club’s priorities is


to instill environmentalism not only
at school but also in local
communities. The YES-O Garden is a
project that aims to foster eco-
friendliness among students,
teachers, parents, and local
stakeholders. The garden is
decorated with ornamental plants as
well as seedlings of fruit-bearing
plants and vegetables.

With the garden, the club and the school will be able to benefit from it as a source of
seedlings, fruits, and vegetables for the students, the school, and the community.

This project is conceptualized to foster the importance of gardening among the


students and ignite their passion for gardening at school. Gardening is also meant to

Project TIBIM (Teacher Interactive Board In Music)

School Peer coaching as suggested by Department of Education (DepEd) is designed


to assist teachers in gaining new skills and knowledge in teaching. It focuses on creating
learning environments that enable them to increase their instructional skills effectively.

As part of the peer coaching activity in school, the innovation Project TIBIM
(Teacher Interactive Board In Music) is initiated to come up with an instructional material
that will guide teachers to teach Music lessons with confidence and expertise.

Project TIBIM is a user’s friendly and interactive instructional material that will help
Grade 9 MAPEH teachers to understand learning competencies in the first quarter. It
contains informative PowerPoint slides that allow teachers manipulate, explore and interact
with images, information and sample music in the Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque
Period.

KATUTUBONG AWIT SA LALAWIGAN NG BULACAN: Resource Book of Localized


Teaching Material for MAPEH Teachers

Education in the Philippines is based on a foundation of cultural heritage. Cultural


heritage in education has a good impact on several aspects and it develops appreciation
and understanding of history and culture while nurturing a sense of belongingness,
identity, and community participation.

Moreover, culture has an impact on how we perceive the world, our society, and
how we communicate with one another. Being a part of a culture has an impact on how we
learn, remember, communicate, and act. As a result, learning and teaching approaches are
strongly influenced by culture. In line with this, the Department of Education (DepEd)
emphasized that culture and history are essential aspects of basic education and should be
taught to 21st century learners with great emphasis on good morals and character.

Furthermore, folk songs are said to be the reflection of society and a great part of
our cultural heritage. Learning folk songs and putting them into practice means of
preserving our culture and national identity, which is valuable to everyone, particularly in
the field of education, where incorporating folk songs into the music curriculum can be a
strategy for achieving national development goals.

In accordance with this, Mr. Marquez T. Cartel, former EPS in MAPEH of Division of
Bulacan, conducted a research on the various Bulacan folk songs. The compiled folk songs
were transcribed into music sheets and recorded digitally. This compilation of folk songs
has finally been completed and is ready to be shared with the public so that everyone can
benefit from the unique culture of our province, Bulacan.
The purposes of the Resource Book of Localized Teaching Material for MAPEH Teachers
are:
a. publish the compilation Bulacan Folk Songs through demonstration and presentation;
b. create consciousness, respect, and love for our cultural heritage, specifically the folk
songs of Bulacan through a symposium; and
c. adopt teaching and learning support material for the promotion of Bulacan folk songs
in the field of education.
“BULACAN FOLK DANCES” (MGA KATUTUBONG SAYAW SA LALAWIGAN NG
BULACAN): Resource Book of Localized Teaching Material for MAPEH Teachers

Bulacan Folk Dances, a resource book of localized teaching material for MAPEH
teachers, is conceived to truly appreciate the cultural heritage of the province, to rediscover
and preserve it, to discover the origins of Bulacan, and to promote local tourism through
folk dances.

This book is a painstaking collection of unpublished folk dances from different


places in Bulacan. Folk dance, as a performing art, plays a vital role in our society.
Dancers gain artistic experience and present it through their creative performances, which
the audience enthusiastically responds with. It is also an avenue of learning as it develops
communication skills, critical thinking skills, problem solving techniques, and kinesthetic
abilities. Just like any dance, folk dance can be utilized in formal and non-formal
education since dance allows participants to tackle a wide variety of themes and deal
effectively with almost all kinds of human behavior. Dance integrates mental, physical,
emotional, social, and spiritual aspects of learning.

Fostering familiarity with the indigenous folk dances of Bulacan can be of great
help in promoting cultural awareness of the young generation. The long forgotten native
folk dances can be revived and made part of the curriculum thus, giving our learners the
opportunity to enjoy and appreciate local dances. Incorporating the contents of this book
with its thrust for localization and contextualization will develop among the youth love for
folk dance. In addition, it will instill in their young minds’ lessons in patriotism and deep
appreciation of Bulacan’s culture. Hopefully, it will enable the youth to balance their
modern, westernized ways with genuine appreciation of the culture of Bulacan, their
beloved and blessed home.

The following are purposes of this book:


a. publish the unpublished folk dances of the Bulacan province;
b. give a copy to every public school in the Division of Bulacan, Local Government Office,
and other concerns for the dissemination of the study;
c. provide learning material in teaching folk dances in the Physical Education component
of MAPEH curriculum; and
d. promote cultural heritage of Bulacan.

The following are pictures showing different folk dances:

The Magical World of Kindergarten 4.0 Project

The 21st Century Education is the generation where learners are provided with
necessary skills to adopt to the new world of technology and to assist them to grow
confidently in using those skills in their quest for learning.

Children who are 5 in age can learn all about the world around them using
exploration, and figuring out how it works. Their enthusiasm for learning always gets the
best of them at this age, which aids them in their learning process in figuring out what the
world contains.

The project MABALAGHANG DAIGDIG sa Kindergarten under Kindergarten


Education Program (KEP) and the flagship Program of SDO Bulacan will serve as a tool in
promoting and directing the young learners toward Education 4.0. Various activities will be
conducted which are aligned to the programs, projects and activities, vision, mission, and
core values of the Department of Education.

This project will also visualize the following:


• use of modern technology in teaching kindergarten pupils;
• adapt the use of gadgets and ICT facilities in facilitating learning;
• create videos that will aid the teachers in the delivery of learning;
• address the needs of teachers in the 21st century education; and
• face the challenges brought by the 4th Industrial Revolution in Education or the
Education 4.0
RESILIENCY AND WELL-BEING

Figure 81

The pillar of Resiliency and Well-Being has its two flagship programs and these are
given by letters Y and O. The first flagship program under letter Y is to yield to the
prescribed standards to sustain the delivery of quality services through appropriate, timely,
and relevant programs, projects, and activities, while the next program is given through

Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Program in DepEd was
institutionalized as per Deped Order No. 37 s. 2015, also known as the Comprehensive
Disaster Risk Reduction and Management in Education Framework. This is to guide DRRM
efforts in the basic education sector towards resilience-building in offices and schools, and
to ensure that quality education is continuously provided and prioritized even during
disasters and/or emergencies. This Framework shall institutionalize DRRM structures,
systems, protocols, and practices in DepEd offices and schools. Further, this shall provide
common understanding and language in the implementation of DRRM in basic education at
all levels. Earthquake Drills, School Hazard Watching and Mapping, School Planning,
Coordinator`s Capacity Building are some of the programs being implemented in DRRM.
Furthermore, Project KALAKBAY, “Kalamidad ay Labanan para sa Kaligtasan ng mga Bata
at mga Bayan ng Bulacan” will be launched to support the DRRM programs and projects at
the same time to recognize schools implementing the said projects.

Under this framework, Earthquake drills, School Hazard Watching and Mapping, School
Contingency Planning, Coordinator`s Capacity Building are some of the programs being
implemented in DRRM
It is envisioned that the safety programs and projects will:
1. turn the school gaps and vulnerabilities into capacities.
2. instill disaster preparedness among our young learners.
3. Provide basic training in disaster preparedness like BLS-CPR, disaster management,
Incident command

RADAR Reporting and Monitoring

RADAR Reporting, Monitoring, and Technical Assistance support the DRRM’s culture
of safety, reducing risks, and ensuring learning continuity. It comprises safe learning
facilities and disaster risk management as part of resilience in education.
This is a way to recognize schools, coordinators, and advocates for the best DRRM
Implementation. Technical assistance is also provided to them in case of any disaster that
may happen, ensuring the safety of all the people concerned as well as the entire
community.
Psychosocial and Mental Health
As the former President Rodrigo Roa Duterte officially signed the Republic Act No.
11036 or the Mental Health Law of 2018, June 21. This law provides every citizen to have
positive mental health and with this all schools in the Division of Bulacan see to it that
every learner has positive psychosocial and mental health through different activities that
schools provide for.

Schools provide a Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) in every subject
area that could give learners the following :
a. Realize their full potential;
b. Cope with the stresses of life;
c. Work productively; and
d. Make meaningful contributions to their communities
MHPSS has different core principles, and these are: human rights and equity,
participation, do no harm to others, building on available resources and capacities,
integrated support system, and multilayered support.
The Division of Bulacan ensures that all learners promote psychosocial well-being by
telling them to:
a. Recognize that crisis occurs when sudden and/or adverse circumstances affect a
person’s ordinary life;
b. Feel that something is wrong and that is okay;
c. Engage in healthy activities that you enjoy and find relaxing;
d. Gather facts minimize fear;
e. Draw on the skills that have helped in the past to manage previous crisis/ adversities,
and use these skills to manage this present one;
f. Shift perspectives away from number of deaths toward number of recoveries;
g. Say words that are one’s uplifting and encouraging.
With the aid of the DEDP’s enabling mechanism through governance, thee
SDO commits to serving Bulakenyo learners with an education that CARES-
Collaborative, Accelerating, Responsive, Empowering, an Strategic governance and
management system. The loops and interactions in the frameworks are adaptive to
the system features of the SDO‘s goals.
In support of the implementation of programs and projects under four (4)
pillars of Intermediate Outcomes (IOs), SDO Bulacan is geared towards aggressive
reforms for quality, thus the different functional units will take the initiatives in the
implementation of the following projects and activities.

abuse;
2. promote awareness and intervention to drug abuse and its related issues; and
3. prevent drug abuse and use among learners thru the development of desirable
values, attitudes, and practices.

SPORTS DEVELOPMENT
For a long time, different sports activities have played a very crucial role in
our education and have also made huge opportunities for student-athletes. While
several learners play sports out of pure pleasure, little do they know that there are
various benefits to these extracurricular activities, as well. Participation in several
athletics and sports activities is highly beneficial for learners in school. Not only do
they develop their physical and mental health but also their intrapersonal skills
such as teamwork and sportsmanship.
Athletics/Sports Clubs in schools under the umbrella of SDO-Bulacan aim
in developing a positive attitude towards different forms of sports and teach them
how athletics promote health and wellness.
The activities that will help them achieve the objectives of sports
development are: 1. training of student-athletes; 2. series of symposia tackling the
importance of sports; 3. inter-school sports competitions or athletic meets; 4.
seminars about sportsmanship; and 5. other sports-related activities.
These activities will hone the physical fitness and skills of the Bulakenyo
learners by developing them comprehensively and fostering their inclination for
sports. In addition, the activities under this program will help widen their physical
capacities and self-discipline.
SOCIAL MOBILIZATION AND NETWORKING
1.The Adopt a School Program (ASP) and Brigada Eskwela
The Adopt-A-School Program (ASP) and Brigada
Eskwela are programs that aim to encourage
volunteerism and public-private partnerships while
also addressing resource gaps in public schools by
strengthening partnerships with local communities.
Adopt-A-School refers to a program where a private
entity agrees to extend assistance to a public school in a particular aspect of its
educational program within an agreed-
upon period, while Brigada Eskwela
promotes collaboration and resilience in
basic education. They envision a deeper
and more meaningful collaboration between
parents, teachers, local governments, and
the entire community through these
programs, to create a safe learning
environment.
Technical assistance among school heads and ASP/BE coordinators is
provided as part of mentoring and coaching during the monitoring of the said
programs. The best practices of each school are shared, especially in sustaining
their partnership in supporting the school’s needs.
2. Enhancement of Partnership Program Implementation and Creation of
Donor Community through Establishing Collaboration among LGUs, NGOs,
Private Sectors, and Alumni
Enhancement of Partnership Program
Implementation and Creation of Donor
Community through Establishing Collaboration
among LGUs, NGOs, Private Sectors, and Alumni
are programs that highlight the acquisition and
the generation of various resources from the
internal and external stakeholders, and the
distribution of resources to target beneficiaries.
These intensify the various partnership programs
through monitoring and evaluation.
The activities of these programs are
monitored, and data banking is utilized to
ensure the acquisition and various resources
are well-distributed to the beneficiaries who
need the said donations most based on their
needs. Through the collaboration among the
LGUs, NGOs, private sectors, and alumni,
these programs would not be possible without
their unceasing support for the schools.
3. Enhancement Program of Youth Partnership and Linkages

Enhancement Program of Youth Partnership


and Linkages is a program that strengthens
partnership engagement through the signing of a
Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) and
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the

In connection, the Social and Mobilization


Networking checks the MOA/MOU and secures that
the two parties are accountable for their duties and
responsibilities as partners. The MOA/MOU is
notarized, and the unit will keep safe this copy.

HUMAN RESOURCE AND DEVELOPMENT


1. Gender Sensitivity in the Educational Setting
In line with the DepEd’s mandate to ensure access
to quality basic education for all and through its
Gender-Responsive Basic Education Policy (DepEd
Order #32, s. 2017), SDO Bulacan commits to
integrate the principles of gender equality, gender
sensitivity, non-discrimination, and human rights,
in the provision and governance of basic education.
Gender awareness is more analytical and
critical since it clarifies issues about gender disparities and gender issues. Our
education system needs to be gender-sensitive and gender friendly. And one of the
best possible strategies to minimize gender discrimination in society is to promote
gender awareness at all levels of society.
Schools can play an important role in
inculcating gender sensitivity in the etiquette and
manners of students. It is necessary to create a
gender-responsive school in which the academic,
social and physical environment and its
surrounding community take into account the
specific needs of girls and boys. Hence, a
detailed action plan with a definite road map is
required in the school curriculum to achieve gender
equality.

The activity aims to orient on the


importance of Gender Sensitivity as it
clarifies issues about gender disparities
and gender issues primarily in our
education system, which it always
needs to become gender sensitive and
gender friendly. In addition, it plans to
create the best possible strategies to
minimize gender discrimination at all
levels in our society.
Specifically, this undertaking intends to:
a. Enhance appreciation and knowledge of
GAD.
b. Develop an understanding of basic gender
concepts and their application to the long-term
implementation of programming and
initiatives.
c. Have significantly increased their
receptiveness and support for the social
economic and political empowerment of
women.
d. Prepare school GAD Plan and Budget for 2023
e. Cascade the training to other GAD focal persons in all EDDISes both Elementary
and Secondary.

2. EARLY DETECTION OF MEN AND WOMEN'S HEALTH ISSUES

The Department of Education


recognizes the necessity to keep our
teaching and non-teaching personnel
healthy and resilient considering that their
physical well-being has a significant impact
on the delivery of services, especially during
this time of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Pursuant to the DepEd Memo 22, s.
20 l5 entitled Annual Physical Examination
of DepEd Employees (Teaching and Non-
Teaching personnel} and as per RA 11223
or the Universal Health Care Act and its
Implementing Rules and Regulations, all
teaching and non-teaching personnel are
required to undergo an Annual Physical
Examination.
The Schools Division of Bulacan in
its 3rd year of implementing its advocacy of
ensuring that personnel of the division
office are healthy and fit to perform their
assigned tasks and functions, the Human
Resource and Development Section
proposed to conduct the activity in July
2022.

This activity aims to:

1. ensure that all employees are


physically fit to perform their assigned
tasks and functions.
2. detect common illnesses and
potentially life-threatening diseases
before symptoms arise.
3. INDUCTION PROGRAM FOR BEGINNING TEACHERS

Schools worldwide use induction


programs to support new teachers in their
first years of teaching by way of
contributing to their sense of well-being
and professional development (Partlow,
2006). A good induction program
addresses the important issues and
transitions from being a preservice teacher
to being a teacher and sets the tone for a
teacher’s personal and professional
identity (Ryan, 2018). It should assist the beginning teacher to understand their
responsibilities to students, the public, and the
profession. Beginning teachers need to continue
to develop their own personal and professional

PLANNING AND RESEARCH
1. Research Festival
Since 2019, the Division Research
Festival has been a yearly activity organized
by the Planning and Research Unit to
provide an opportunity for researchers
(teaching, teaching-related, and non-
teaching personnel) of the division to share
their research findings. Moreover, this serves
as an avenue for discussion on how the
division may be able to utilize the outputs of
completed research in improving learning
outcomes and governance processes in the
division. During the conduct of this activity,
several oral and poster presenters are
allowed to showcase and present their
completed research while participant
observers are given a chance to witness and
learn from among the best in the specific
subject matter.

2. Research Caravan
The Research Caravan serves as a
mechanism for the Schools Division
Research Committee (SDRC) to provide
technical assistance and coaching on
research to its teaching, teaching-related
and non-teaching personnel. In the said
activity, the Planning and Research Unit
of the SGOD gathers participants from
all the educational districts to conduct
in-depth coaching on research. Coaching
covers discussions on the culture of
research in basic education, preparation
of proposals, problem identification,
development of interventions and
research instruments, as well as
conducting research.

SCHOOL MANAGEMENT MONITORING AND


EVALUATION

School-Based Management is the strategy to improve education by


transferring significant decision-making authority to all schools in the school
division office. SBM provides the internal and external stakeholders greater control
over the education process by giving them responsibility for decisions about the
budget, personnel, and curriculum. Through the involvement of teachers, parents,
and other community stakeholders, SBM can create more effective learning
environments for children.
The DepEd Memorandum No. 75, s 2022 or the moratorium on the SBM Validation
never stop the schools to improve their operation in all aspects of leadership,
curriculum, accountability, and management of resources “para sa bata, para sa
bayan” and more so, focus on improvement on a curriculum about learning loss due
to pandemic.

This program envisioned to-


1. positively affect teachers' commitment to the teaching profession and student’s
academic achievements and negatively affects their commitment to the school
and students' social well-being.
2. address improvements in the learning outcomes through effective leadership in
schools.
3. empower school heads and teachers to manage and appropriately respond to
learning needs and issues in their respective communities.

Quality Assurance Monitoring and Evaluation of Training – SDO Bulacan is


committed in ensuring the quality delivery of all DepEd training programs and
promoting transparency and accountability in governance and operation. Hence,
quality assurance monitoring and evaluation of training promote and protect
accountability and transparency in the division by ensuring compliance with
standards in the delivery of training towards achieving outputs and results by
assessing, assuring quality, and monitoring and evaluating training to obtain
accurate, timely, and relevant information that serves as the basis for decision-
making and continuous improvement in the delivery of training and development.

Furthermore, the following tasks are undertaken as part of the quality assurance
monitoring and evaluation:

1. Assessment
• Manage the operationalization of the national assessment framework in the
SDO by implementing processes and tools or developing them as needed.
• Oversee the implementation of the assessment program among schools.

2. Quality Assurance

ORGANIZATIONAL EFFICACY
PROGRAM TO INSTITUTIONALIZE MERITOCRACY AND EXCELLENCE IN
HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT (PRIME-HRM)

SDO Bulacan is on its way to the accreditation of the Program to


Institutionalize Meritocracy and Excellence in Human Resource Management
(PRIME-HRM). It is a mechanism that empowers government agencies by
developing their human resource management competencies, systems, and
practices toward HR excellence. PRIME-HRM entails greater engagement not just
of the human resource management officer (HRMO) but also of the officials and
the rank-and-file employees of the agency.

Human resource management (HRM) is the practice of recruiting, hiring,


deploying, and managing an organization's employees. HRM is often referred to
simply as human resources (HR). A company or organization's HR department is
usually responsible for creating, putting into effect, and overseeing policies
governing workers and the relationship of the organization with its employees.

The role of HRM practices is to manage the people within a workplace to


achieve the organization's mission and reinforce the culture. When done
effectively, HR managers can help recruit new professionals who have the skills
necessary to further the company's goals as well as aid with the training and
development of current employees to meet objectives.

HUMAN RESOURCE INFORMATION SYSTEM (HRIS)

SDO Bulacan is on its way to the introduction of the Human Resource


Information System (HRIS). It is a system that is used to collect and store data on
an agency’s personnel, from teaching related to non-teaching staff. It encompasses
the basic functionalities needed for end-to-end Human Resources Management
(HRM). It is a system for recruitment, performance management, learning &
development, to retirement.
Centrally, the HRIS holds employee information. A wide range of employee
data is then easily accessible, in one system, such as but not limited to:

• Record-keeping. An HRIS is a record-keeping system that keeps track of


changes to anything related to employees. The HRIS can be seen as the single
source of truth when it comes to personnel data.
• Compliance. Some data is collected and stored for compliance reasons. This
includes material for the identification of employees in case of theft, fraud, or
other misbehaviors, first contact information in case of accidents, citizens
identification information for the tax office, and expiration dates for mandatory
certification. All this information can be stored in the HRIS. Data must be stored
safely and securely.

• Efficiency. Having all this information stored in one place not only benefits
accuracy but also saves time.

• HR strategy. The HRIS permits the tracking of data required to advance the HR
and business strategy. Depending on the priorities of the organization, different
data will be essential to track.

• Self-Service HR. A final benefit is an ability to offer self-service HR to employees


and managers. This enables employees to manage their affairs. When done right,
the HRIS can offer a good employee experience.

Because an HRIS encompasses all the functionalities of HR, all separate


functionalities are part of the system. These functionalities include:

• Applicant Tracking System (ATS). This software handles all the agency’s
recruiting needs. It tracks candidate information and resumes, enables
recruiters to match job openings to suitable candidates from the agency’s
application pool, and helps in guiding the hiring process.
• Payroll. Payroll automates the pay process of employees. Contractual data and
information on new hires are often entered into this system – sometimes
combined with time & attendance data – and at the end of the month, payment
orders are created.
• Benefits administration. Another functionality of the HRIS is benefits
management. Employee benefits are an important aspect of compensation and
are also managed in this system. More advanced systems offer an employee self-
service model for employee benefits.
• Training. Learning and development are key elements when it comes to
employee management. This allows HR to track the qualification, certifications,
and skills of the employees, as well as an outline of available courses for agency
employees.
• Performance management. Performance management is a key part of managing
people. Performance ratings are generated once or multiple times a year by the
direct manager or peers of the employee.
• Succession planning. Creating a talent pipeline and having replacements
available for key roles in the organization is another key component of an HRIS.
• Employee self-service. Employee self-service has already been mentioned.
Organizations are focusing increasingly on having employees and their direct
supervisors manage their data. Requests like holidays can be asked for by the
employee him/herself. After approval, these are then immediately saved into the
system (and registered to track for payroll and benefits purposes).
QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

DepEd Schools Division of Bulacan operates beyond the limits of excellence


towards the maximum development of the potential of every Filipino learner to
enable him/her to compete in a global community based on Christian tenets as
Maka-Diyos, Maka-Bansa, Maka-Tao at Maka-Kalikasan." The commitment to
continue to provide "Total Quality Basic Education Services" to the youth with
special skills and interests through formal, informal, and non-formal channels, for
maximum development of their potential, values, and attitudes to enable them to
participate successfully as functional citizens in a literate, just and humane
society is being realized through the Quality Management System with a scope
“Provision of Educational Services of SDO Bulacan”.
This complies with DepEd Memorandum No. 14, s. 2022 on the DepEd
Quality Management System Manual and Processes and Work Instructional
Manual.
Through an audit, documented in the report, it was verified that the
management system fulfills the requirements of the following standard of ISO
9001: 2015; thus, the ISO certifies the Department of Education- School Division
of Bulacan for its quality management system. This was validated last 2018 on
May 29th and ended on 2021 May 28th with Certification Registration No.
50500546 QM15. To continue to carry this management system, the Office crafted
the SDO QMS Manual and on the process of crafting the Procedures and Work
Instructions Manual (PAWIM) by conducting planning meetings at least twice a
year.

Project SUSTAIN: Staff Upskilling thru Supervision & Technical Assistance


Initiative

Technical Assistance is considered necessary to ensure the effective and


efficient implementation of programs, activities, and projects. It is one of the key
professional activities provided by the Schools Division of Bulacan to all public and
private schools as they move toward the realization of their objectives. This is done
by giving support and guidance in identifying, analyzing, and finding appropriate
and relevant interventions to improve service to clientele.
As stipulated in RA 9155 otherwise known as the “Governance of Basic
Education Act of 2001,” SDO-Bulacan is mandated not only to provide field
leadership in the enforcement of standards but more importantly to provide
technical support and assistance to ensure continuous improvement in
instructional and administrative leadership and management.
SDO-Bulacan’s Technical Assistance (TA) initiative is aligned with the
department’s vision and mission and the Basic Sector Reform Agenda (BESRA),
which has better specified the roles and responsibilities of the various levels of the
department in support of School-Based Management. The people in this division
believe they are responsible for the growth and development of the organization
based on its targets and needs.
This TA process is developed as a guide for the proper and systematic
implementation of technical assistance in leading, guiding, monitoring, evaluating,
and assessment towards effective School-Based Management. Furthermore,
provides clear procedures, guidelines, tools, and a suggested structure for
implementing the TA process based on its framework. It also focuses on how the
concept of technical assistance helps the practices associated with the teaching-
learning situations, as well as leading and managing schools and different
departments (Finance, Supply, Human Resources, etc.) to bridge the gaps in
Curriculum Implementation, school administration, and supervision.

An increasing number of enrollees is expected to reach its peak as the SDO Bulacan, through
its competent superintendent and full-forced educational leaders are zealous to implement various
projects and programs centered on literacy that will encourage parents to enroll their children in
school. As a result, the national government's goal of having all Filipino children become educated
and well-rounded professionals will be fulfilled. This would inspire all SDO Bulacan schools, under
the direction of school principals and with the active participation of teachers and staff, to devise
ways to encourage students to continue and pursue their studies.

• DIVISION EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT
PLAN
SDO BULACAN DEDP FRAMEWORK

Figure 101
For the longest time, education has been our most effective equalizer, but the
onslaught of the pandemic made us realize that we live in a VUCA world that is unpredictable.
It is true that the COVID-19 pandemic has produced the greatest disruption in the history of
our education system, and it is evident that the continuity of learning during school closures
has become an issue for our government. Various ways and means were carefully planned
and crafted and as our country progressively shifts back to the traditional way of teaching
and learning, the Schools Division of Bulacan continuously addresses learning poverty
brought about by this global health crisis.

The outcomes will be improved by programs that are created to address the symptoms
of learning poverty. Armed with the goal of providing Bulakenyo learners quality basic
education through inclusion, fairness, standard-based, flexible, and child-friendly learning
environments toward holistic development and its sector outcome for Bulakenyo learners to
acquire literacy, numeracy, science, and 21st-century skills and developed positive character
to succeed in their choice of career, the SDO’s intermediate outcomes are guided by the
following four (4) pillars in achieving its BULAKENYO flagship program:

1. Access
✓ Bringing all Bulakenyo school-aged children to quality learning environment;
✓ Uniting all concerned internal and external stakeholders toward inclusive
Education For All (EFA)
2. Equity
✓ Leveraging lifelong learning opportunities and equitable distribution of services and
resources
✓ Addressing learning gaps and resources deficiency to further enhance learning
environment
3. Quality
✓ Kindling the DepEd core values of Maka-Diyos, Makabansa, Makatao, at
Makakalikasan to learners, teachers, schools, and nonteaching personnel
✓ Enhancing teaching-learning strategies through computer-aided instruction,
assignments, and information technology
✓ Nurturing 21st century skills among learners to become productive and globally
competitive Filipino citizens
4. Resiliency and Well-being
✓ Yielding to the prescribed standards to sustain the delivery of quality education
through appropriate, timely, and relevant programs, projects, and activities
✓ Overcoming challenges through unity and collaborative teamwork for quality
education
With the aid of the DEDP’s enabling mechanism through governance, the SDO
commits to serving Bulakenyo learners with an education that CARES—collaborative,
accelerating, responsive, empowering, and strategic governance and management system. The
loops and interactions in the framework are adaptive to the system features of the SDO’s
goals.
Table 71. ACCESS

Table 72. EQUITY

Different offices in the Division of Bulacan are accounted to their duties in


delivering the Inclusive Education Program and some of these offices are:
Curriculum and Implementation Division (CID) and School Governance and
Operation Division (SGOD).
These offices are in -charge in inclusive basic learning opportunities and in
receiving appropriate quality education by increasing the participation rate of
disadvantage school-aged children, youth, and adult; they are also in charge of
categorizing the disabled children and youth who are enrolled in Special Education
program; and they are also on eye to the disadvantage students on equal access to
education.
With some of their functions, it is resulted to achieve 100% accomplishment
of the following: disadvantage school-age children, youth and adult have benefited
from equity initiatives, monitoring of SPED, monitoring on equal access to
education among disadvantage learners and mapping of children with disabilities.

To ensure accurate communication with a target audience and to make it


possible for the SDO to monitor and immediately respond to problems or worries
affecting the efficiency with which programs are delivered and their effectiveness,
Monitoring, Evaluation and Adjustment will serve as a guide whether the targets
are being properly addressed, progress indicators and accountable personnel. In
line with this, the SDO will be able to keep track of the programs and provide
interventions immediately if needed.
Table 75. GOVERNANCE
Table 76. RISK MANAGEMENT

Planning is a pivotal process in order to set goals and develop strategies to accomplish
goals. Perhaps careful planning will not guarantee a smooth flow of outlined tasks. After
careful analysis and investigation within SDO Bulacan, a set of institutional risks were
identified. Indicated below are highly impactful risks and their respective mitigation
strategies:
• The need to craft implementation policies/issuances to support local practices,
operations, and needs of SDOs in some areas of the curriculum. Local practices,
operations, and needs of SDOs should be supported through the formulation and provision
of guidelines and policy recommendations to CO.
• Inadequate capacity for making the curricula responsive to learners and market
requirements. Training for supervisors, school heads, and teachers will capacitate them in
making responsive curricula for learners and the market.
• Possible COVID-19 surge in the province. There is a need for proper coordination with
the DOH Provincial Chapter and RHU and further sustenance of the School Health
Section’s massive information campaigns on COVID-19 prevention and the monitoring of
the health and wellness of personnel and learners. Proper coordination may rectify the
effects of a possible surge.
• Lack of funds to support and sustain PPAs included in the DEDP. Determining priority
PPAs can support and sustain the inadequacy of funds. Mobilizing school resources and
maximizing the use of SEF would also support PPAs indicated in the DEDP. Planning is a
crucial part as it can optimize the use of resources.
Moreover, other identified risks with their mitigation strategies are the following:
• Negligence of schools to sustain safe operations. Schools should practice continuous
monitoring of safe operations in all sectors.
• Possible occurrence of natural calamities. Proper coordination between the school
and the municipal and barangay DRRM official will help mitigate possible severe effects.
Table 77. COMMUNICATION PLAN
Communication is the lifeblood of an organization so to ensure the smooth and
accurate flow of communications within the school’s division, a well-crafted communication
plan was produced.

The communication plan’s target audience attended a training-workshop that seeks to


equip District Information Officers (DICs) and School Information Officers (SICs) necessary
skills in journalism and video editing which will then be utilized in their respective station in
terms of creating content for their school’s official social media page. The activity will make
them adept social media managers of their schools’ official pages. The training-workshop was
successfully scheduled last April through a hybrid modality. It is manifested in the activity
that as the world progress towards digitalization, various modes of delivery can be applied to
disseminate information.

In light of the current status of the country, the pandemic has indeed taught
educators that information dissemination to a larger audience is possible. This is through the
utilization of various online and offline platforms that work well in the division. The
dissemination of significant insights would involve channels like the DepEd Tayo Bulacan
YouTube Channel, DepEd Tayo Radyo Eskwela, and Bulakenyong Mapagmahal E-Newsletter,
to be done quarterly the entire year.
