Gatchalian: Decisive action needed vs. education crisis

We set up future generations for failure when 9 out of 10 children finish Grade 5 without being able to read. Huwag na natin hayaang magpatuloy pa ang krisis sa edukasyon.

As we open this school year, the Academic Recovery and Accessible Learning (ARAL) Program must roll out without delay. Ensuring our learners master literacy and numeracy is urgent and non-negotiable. Let's also fully implement the Early Childhood Care and Development System Act to give our learners a strong foundation because a solid start in early childhood is key to lifelong learning and success.
