 7:33 – any program, subject, material, learning materials that a child and teacher has access to

must be of quality.
 8:10 – 9:35 – Same goes for training programs and facilities, QUALITY!!
 10:30 – K to 3 ensure that basic literacy and numeracy competency are learned through the use
of the Mother Tongue. Preparing them to learn and to learn by themselves.
 11:40 – unstructured play, free time for playing is built into Grades 1-3. We do not formalize
early grades too early. Language development of children is guided properly from Mother
Tongue, to Filipino, to English. These things bridge properly and develop comprehension in all
three.
 13:15 – Teacher intervention on the lowest performing schools of every region to lift the bottom
of the NAT. Bottom-up improvement. This for K to 3.
 16:00 – (for grades 5 to 6) There is no specific intervention on creating only science and math
strengths. We want to create strong elementary schools not only for the bright kids, but for
everyone. By strengthening math and science in schools, we expect these are given to all
children.
