SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL
By: Jocelyn R. Uy, Philippine Daily Inquirer, May 01, 2017
Grade 10 graduates from private schools will get a chance at availing the senior high school (SHS) voucher for the new school year.
The Department of Education (DepEd) has announced that it was reopening the application for the SHS voucher program from May 1 to 15 for Grade 10 completers who were not Educational Service Contracting grantees and who missed the deadline to enlist last February.
In an advisory, the DepEd said all applications had to be strictly done online by accessing the voucher application portal at http://ovap.deped.gov.ph. It stressed that manual applications would not be processed.
“Applications will be accepted only until May 15 and the deadline will not be extended. Results will be announced on May 31,” it added.
On its website, the DepEd also announced that results of the earlier application for the voucher program had already been released and could be accessed through the online portal.
Online applicants should log in to their account to check if they have been accepted into the program while manual applicants may use the “check results” function found in the website. Qualified voucher recipients may also start downloading their respective voucher certificates, it added.
The DepEd vouchers are given to Grade 10 completers who would like to pursue SHS in private schools, private universities and colleges or state colleges and universities.
Under the program, all Grade 10 completers are eligible to apply for the vouchers, which entitles a beneficiary to a subsidy of up to P22,500 every school year.
