The Provincial Education Reform Core Team (EdCore Team) recently convened with Board Member Jason Gonzales and Edwin Nacionales of Synergeia to address issues and concerns to ensure the smooth, efficient, and effective implementation of Governor Arthur “Toto” Defensor, Jr.’s BES BASA initiative and the Proof of Concept (POC).
These programs aim to revolutionize the education system by decentralizing basic education and providing a more localized and responsive governance.
The meeting underscored the importance of collaboration among all stakeholders to address challenges and streamline efforts towards educational reform.
“This is not an easy job,” Provincial Administrator Raul Banias stated. “But with the support of Synergeia, DepEd, EDCOM II and the Regional Education Council, the province will do its best to attain the goals and objectives.”
With these programs, the province aims to enable all primary school learners to read by the end of the 2025 school year.
Today, the municipality of Batad is rolling out the POC at the teachers’ level.
Stay tuned for further updates and developments on this transformative initiative.
