MANILA, Philippines – The Department of Education (DepEd) has issued a set of guidelines to institutionalize the process of partnership-building activities in connection with the implementation of the K to 12 program.

Education Secretary Armin Luistro, through a department order, stressed the need for partnerships with different groups to achieve the goals of the K to 12 program.

The partnerships cover fields such as work immersion opportunities for senior high school students, the use of facilities and equipment, additional teacher training opportunities and additional resources in the form of donations.

“These guidelines are designed to help personnel from the central office, regional, schools division and public secondary schools in undertaking the following steps of partnership-building activities,” Luistro said.

The guidelines provide for a step-by-step process that DepEd and school officials should follow in identifying potential partners.

“The primary goal of partnership building is to improve the capability of DepEd and the public schools to implement the K to 12 program,” the guidelines state.

DepEd hopes that the partners will be able to provide schools work immersion opportunities, hands-on expertise, additional resources, and work or livelihood opportunities for senior high school graduates.

Luistro ordered school divisions to designate social mobilization and networking coordinators or other qualified persons as partnership focal persons.

The provisions of the guidelines will be applicable to all partnership agreements entered into by DepEd and any of its local offices and schools and their partners. –Janvic Mateo (The Philippine Star)
