  8. II. Main Thrusts, 2008-2010 • Leap frog the quality of basic education into global standards (Basic Education Sector Reform Agenda or BESRA) • Increase spending for basic education from all possible sources (public national + local, private sources, ODA) • Tighten system governance to enhance school-based management

  9. Leap-frogging basic education quality • Investing more in preschool education • Improving the quality of teaching and learning (teacher retooling) • Improving classroom conditions (addressing resource shortages) • Making basic education accessible and relevant to the Filipino learners (e.g., tech-voc, GASTPE) • Promoting equity in the delivery of basic education services (e.g., Madrasah, Special Education, Alternative Learning) • Promoting centers of excellence in public schools, particularly in English, science, math, arts, sports

  10. Increase Basic Education spending • Regular financing (GAA) • Alternative financing strategies • Adopt-a-School (Private Sector) • Utilization of a portion of the LGUs’ Internal Revenue Allotment • Securitization of a portion of the LGUs’ Special Education Fund • Issuance of Patriot Bonds by NG

  15. III.3-year Financial Simulation (2008-2010)

  16. Underlying Assumptions • Preschool Education Scenario 1: DepED will continue to be a provider of preschool education; lead role will be assumed by National Council on ECCD Scenario 2: Preschool is part of the basic education ladder i.e., from K to 10; a pre-requisite to Grade 1 (proposed bill) • Elementary Education Scenario 1: Class size is pegged at 45 on double-shift system. Scenario 2: Class size improves from 45 in 2008, to 40 in 2009 to 35 in 2010, all on double-shift system • Secondary Education – same as elementary • All prices used are held constant until 2010; expressed in PhP millions.

  17. Budget Scenarios

  18. Simulation Costs: In million pesos Desired Scenario: Inclusion of preschool to the basic education ladder beginning 2009, and class sizes improve from 45 in 2008 to 40 in 2009 to 35 in 2010, all on double shift basis.

  19. Comparative Budgets, 2006-2008 (P’000s) FY 2008 NEP is 16% lower than the Original Proposal Share Against National Budget: 11.9% Notes: 1. 3-year ave. share of GDP is 2.53%. International standard is 6% of GDP, per UNESCO report.2. Ave. share of educ. budget in developing countries is 20%, per WB report.3. Historical Ave. Share of Education Budget per EDCOM Report 1960’s : 29% 1970’s : 11% 1980’s : 13% 1990’s : 13%

  21. DepED Budgets, by Major Final Outputs

  22. IV. Financing Proposals 1. Utilize 10% of the LGUs’ Internal Revenue Allotment Total IRA, 2007 P183.9B 10% of IRA, except for bgys. estimated at 5% P16.6B P16.6B / P550,000/classroom = 30,216 cls per year

  23. IV. Financing Proposals 2. Securitizing 50% of the LGUs’ Special Education Fund (SEF)

  24. IV. Financing Proposals 3. Issuance of patriot bonds by the National Government via the National Development Company

  25. V. Proposed Legislative Agenda Supportive of DepED Thrusts/Directions • Institutionalization of Preschool in the Basic Education Cycle • RA 4670 (Magna Carta for Teachers) • RA 7160 (Local Government Code) • National Career Assessment Examination • RA 7880 (“Roxas Law”) • PD 1146 as Amended (on GSIS) • School Sites Special Land Registration Act

  28. SBM Installation and Support • Legal Basis • RA 9155 – Governance of Basic Education Act • Basic Education Sector Reform Agenda (BESRA) • Rationale Schools are the community-based social institutions that provide the most widely available formally organized instruction, which is expected to enable students to learn, and thereby attain their desired educational outcomes. If schools are to deliver better outcomes in a sustainable manner, the key stakeholders, within the school and the community, must be enabled and empowered to manage their school-level affairs so that they continuously improve the link between their own efforts and their collectively desired educational outcomes. The central insight of this reform thrust is that people most actively and directly involved in and affected by the school operations are the best people to improve the quality of these schools. • Budgets 2008 NEP Budget: P500M 2007 GAA : P500M 2006 GAA : P250M

It also helps private schools maximize use of their idle capacity, thereby helping promote their continued financial viability. • Budgets 2008 NEP Budget: P2.90B 2007 GAA : P3.14B 2006 GAA : P2.46B 2005 GAA : P1.83B 2004 GAA : P1.57B 2003 GAA : P1.58B
