 MESSAGE/FOREWORD

In Matthew 5:48, Jesus said, SO BE PERFECT, AS YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER IS PERFECT.

Our Christian faith teaches us that this is what we are all called to be, PERFECT AS OUR
HEAVENLY FATHER IS!

But, who will teach us? What to teach? How to teach? Who to teach? When to teach?
Where to teach?

We thank God, through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, for inspiring individuals and groups
to work together to produce a valuable document which is a timely response to the mandate
of the just recently passed Republic Act No. 11476 known as “An Act Institutionalizing
Good Manners and Right Conduct and Values Education in the K to 12 Curriculum.”

This CURRICULUM GUIDE will facilitate in answering the questions posed above. I would like to
recognize those who made an extra effort to make this noble project possible: The National
Christian Formation Commission (NCFC) of the Catholic Educational Association of the
Philippines (CEAP) headed by Fr. Nolan Que, the Project Leader who initiated this project; Dr.
Twila Punsalan, Technical Adviser of this project; the REX Group of Companies that offered all
its services needed to realize this worthwhile endeavor; the TWG made up of
representatives from different congregations and schools and many more.

Our deep gratitude to the Department of Education for sharing with us its competence in the
evaluation and approval of the GUIDE in view of its implementation in the Catholic schools
across the country. I pray that we will have more opportunities to work together in your future
projects.

We commend to our prayers our Catholic educators and our future Catholic leaders who
have been chosen to be His instruments in carrying out His divine plan of journeying with our
youth in this task of New Evangelization for their commitment rooted in Christ .

Indeed, the celebration of the 500 years of Christianity of our beloved country is a challenge to
us to become more and more authentic witnesses of our faith leading us all to BE PERFECT AS
OUR HEAVENLY FATHER IS PERFECT!

INTEGRATED CURRICULUM OF CHRISTIAN LIVING EDUCATION, GOOD MANNERS

A. Background

One of the required learning areas in the 2016 K to 12 Basic Education

Curriculum is Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao (EsP), now replaced with Good
Manners and Right Conduct (GMRC) in the elementary level and Values
Education (VE) in the secondary level. In the past, the practice in private
schools was the implementation of the Christian Living Education (CLE), in
place of or together with the EsP, as a separate learning area. With the
approval of the K to 12 Curriculum in 2015, the Department of Education
(DepEd) asserts the implementation of the EsP standards and learning
competencies across the K to 12 levels in both public and private schools.
Recently, on 25 June 2020, the R.A. No. 11476, known as AN ACT
INSTITUTIONALIZING GOOD MANNERS AND RIGHT CONDUCT AND
VALUES EDUCATION IN THE
K TO 12 CURRICULUM, has been passed into law which makes it imperative
even more for the private schools to implement the learning area as
mandated.
The possibilities of integrating the CLE and the EsP, now GMRC and
VE, have been projected as early as March 6, 2018. The Catholic Educational
Association of the Philippines (CEAP) sent a letter to the DepEd Secretary
Leonor M. Briones, through the Office of the Undersecretary, requesting
that Catholic schools be allowed to use the CLE curriculum in place of the
EsP. Consequently, the Undersecretary responded in a letter dated June 14,
2018, asking for a copy of the detailed curriculum guide of CLE per level to
enable their curriculum specialists to evaluate it vis-a-vis the EsP curriculum
standards.
Through the initiative of Fr. Nolan A. Que, Chairperson of the CEAP
National Christian Formation Commission, there was an attempt to search
for the CLE Curriculum that would be close to the EsP learning standards. A
review of available documents showed that the CLE standards, i.e., content
1
 standards, performance standards, and learning competencies, needed to be
aligned more closely with the DepEd curriculum requirements for EsP. The
review led to the realization of a possibility to integrate the CLE and the
DepEd EsP standards as both learning areas that have overlapping learning
components and a common goal for the Filipino learners.
Cognizant of an urgent need to develop a full-blown curriculum
integrating CLE and the K to 12 GMRC and VE, a development plan was
designed that guided a series of activities participated by CLE and VE
experts and practitioners, i.e., workshops, meetings, and take home writing
assignments, and validation processes.
The development process in Figure 1 went through several stages that
took a period of eleven months, from August 2019 to July 2020, to reach the
final completion of the curriculum. The following are the stages of the
curriculum development process:

E. Content Validation
F. Approvals
The template and format followed intently those of the DepEd
Curriculum Guide for different learning areas, particularly that of the EsP.
The learning standards of the EsP from Kinder to Grade 10 were considered
in the integration except for Grades 11 and 12. The core subjects in Senior High
School, specifically Personal Development in Grade 11 and Introduction to the
Philosophy of the Human Person for Grade 12, were considered for
integration with the CLE content. Upon the passage of the R.A No. 11476 on
June 25, 2020, significant adjustments were made in the development work
taking into account the

2
 important provisions of the law regarding the coverage and implementation
of the learning area.

Figure 1. Stages of the Curriculum Development Process

The first versions of the curriculum standards were subjected to Content

Validation. Initially, this involved small group and big group internal
validation. The outputs were then validated by VE and CLE experts. These
experts have an extensive training and experience in Values Education,
Theology, and CLE. The outputs were further subjected to grade and
and refinements in two sets of online workshops joined by the Technical
Working Group (TWG), Core Groups, and all the writers.

The CLE-GMRC-VE Curriculum was created to guide Catholic Schools

in the implementation of the integration in terms of the content standards,
performance standards, and learning competencies across the K to 12 grade
levels, compliant to the requirements of the DepEd. All Catholic schools in
Basic Education are encouraged to use the curriculum guide in classroom
instruction, materials development, and related educational activities.

The Goal and Learning Outcome

In the face of new and unexpected challenges and complexities today
affecting character and values formation of the Christian learners, brought about
by various concerns, such as new normal, digital technology, health, substance
abuse, access to quality education, politics, environmental degradation, interfaith
dialogue, poverty, culture of death, and negativity, there is a need to strengthen
the Christian school curriculum in empowering the learners to live a life of love
and greatness. Pope Francis, in his Apostolic Exhortation “Christus Vivit,”
extolled the youth, “I ask you to be revolutionaries, I ask you to swim against the tide;
yes, I am asking you to rebel against this culture (of relativism and the ephemeral) that
sees everything as temporary and

4
that ultimately believes you are incapable of responsibility, that believes you are incapable
of true love.”
Through the guidance and gifts of the Holy Spirit, the ‘love that is genuine,
beautiful and expansive’ that Pope Francis cited, can only grow in learners who
willingly follow the ways of Jesus Christ. Thus, there is a need to provide them
with ‘weapons’ of knowledge, skills, and virtues focused on a commitment to
Christ. Nevertheless, it is only through the power of the Holy Spirit that one can
change his/her life. It is also through the power of the Holy Spirit that learners can
be molded to be Christ-like in character. “The Holy Spirit fills the heart of the risen
Christ and then flows over into your lives. When you receive the Spirit, he draws you ever
more deeply into the heart of Christ, so that you can grow in his love, his life and his
power” (Christus Vivit, 130).
The goal of the CLE-GMRC-VE Curriculum is to mold each learner to be a
“Christ-centered person who loves, discerns, and acts for the common good.”
The learner with this mark is motivated to glorify God and to use the gifts of
spiritual (intellect, free will, and conscience) and material (senses and emotions)
faculties in making decisions and taking actions that are reflective of his/her love
of God and love of others. His/Her deep faith in God is always accompanied by
action, selflessness for a neighbor in need, and passion in doing great works for
the common good. As the Social Doctrine of the Church defines Bonum commune
or common good indicates, “the sum total of social conditions which allows
people, either as groups or as individuals, to reach their fulfilment more fully and
more easily.”
The Content Themes and the Core Values
The learning standards of the CLE-GMRC-VE Curriculum organized across
the K to 12 grade levels focus on the four major content themes based on the
DepEd
core values, Maka-Diyos, Makatao, Makabansa, and Makakalikasan, that set the
desired behavior of the Filipino Christian learners who are loving, discerning, and
acting for the common good. Moreover, the themes reflect the Filipino values that
are embodied in the Preamble of the 1987 Philippine Constitution, to wit:
“We, the sovereign Filipino people, imploring the aid of Almighty God
[Maka-Diyos], in order to build a just and humane society and establish a
Government that shall embody our ideals and aspirations, promote the common
good [Makabansa], conserve and develop our patrimony [Makakalikasan], and
secure to ourselves and our posterity, and a regime of truth, justice, freedom,
love, equality, and peace [Makatao], do ordain and promulgate this
Constitution.”
The Christ-centered learner is expected to demonstrate the following
behavioral evidence of a loving, discerning, and acting person for the common
good, along the four themes:

5
 Maka-Diyos – As a child of God and a Christian, the learner demonstrates a
deep relationship with the Almighty God, the All-Powerful Supreme Being,
who guides the destinies of all nations. The Christian learner freely expresses
his/her faith in God and shows this in thoughts, words, and actions. He/
She appreciates and respects all of God’s creation recognizing every human
person with dignity and uniqueness, created in His image and likeness. He/
She commits to follow God’s commandments to love Him and love his/her
neighbor. He/She upholds the values of Human Dignity and Christian
Spirituality.
Makatao – As a human person gifted by God with spiritual and material
faculties, the Christian learner demonstrates the use of true freedom in
making responsible decisions and actions that show respect and care for
oneself, family, and others in the spirit of malasakit and pakikipagkapwa.
He/She participates actively in initiatives for and in solidarity with his/her
kapwa especially the less fortunate; makes constant discernment in the
practice of honesty and integrity, good faith in dealing with others, and in
standing by his/her ethical and moral convictions; and is constantly sensitive
to individual, social, and cultural differences. He/She upholds the core values
of Love and Goodness and Truth and Respect for Diversity.
Makabansa – As a Filipino citizen, the Christian learner takes pride in
being a Filipino, and in the diverse Filipino cultural expressions, practices,
beliefs, and traditions. He/She fosters a true spirit of patriotic love, loyalty to
the country, and obedience to its laws. He/She promotes the values of
perseverance and industry, the principles of solidarity and subsidiarity for the
common good, and actions for truth, justice, freedom and responsibility,
respect for human rights, gender equality, and peace and order, among
others. As a global citizen, he/ she shows appreciation of world heritage,
international understanding, and global peace. He/She upholds the core
values of Nationalism or Globalism and Peace and Justice.
Makakalikasan – As a steward of God’s creation, the Christian learner cares,
nurtures, and safeguards all that God has created with sense of gratitude,
responsibility, and discipline. He/She advocates for the protection and
preservation of the environment not only for the present but for the future
generation. He/She utilizes the resources and goods of the earth wisely,
judiciously, economically, and religiously. He/She upholds the core values of
Sustainable Human Development, Health, and Harmony with Nature.

6
 In the CLE-GMRC-VE learning area, the Christ-centered learner is guided by
the Holy Spirit in understanding himself/herself as a human person, in discerning
the meaning of his/her life, and preserving his/her human dignity and uniqueness
being created in the image and likeness of God. Of all visible creatures, the human
is “the only creature on earth that God has willed for its own sake,” possesses the
dignity of a person, who is not just something, but someone. Human, whole and
entire, is therefore willed by God (CCC 356, 357, 362). “The supreme and
overarching value that characterizes education is human dignity: the human
person is of infinite value” (Values Education for the Filipino, 1997). Moreover,
the learner is guided in understanding his/her role and responsibility in the
Philippine society and the world so that he/she can participate in building a
community that embodies the ethical and moral values such as Christian
Spirituality, Love and Goodness, Truth and Respect, Peace and Justice, Health and
Harmony with Nature, National and Global Solidarity, and Sustainable Human
Development. The descriptions of the seven core values in the VE Framework 1997
are adapted for the purpose of the CLE-GMRC- VE Curriculum.
 The human person is spiritual and capable of higher concerns and of
rising above the material. He/She must cultivate Christian Spirituality
which essentially connects him/her with God and our common home.
 The human person is moral and endowed with the faculty of freely
choosing and loving. He/She must go out to others and to all humanity
in love and goodness.
 The human person is intellectual and gifted with the mind, the faculty of
knowing. He/She must constantly seek for truth and respect for
diversity of beliefs. He/She seeks knowledge that would transform
society and the world. At the same time, he/she maintains respect,
tolerance, and open disposition of the mind.
 The human person is social and lives in a community. He/She must help
build peace and justice in society, through the pursuit of family
solidarity as well as the common good and well-being of the larger
society. He/She must also cultivate respect for human rights and active
non-violence.
 The human person is physical, made of matter. As a steward of creation,
he/she must maintain health and harmony with nature.
 The human person is economic and bound to concerns of production
and consumption. He/She must help achieve the goal of a more humane
and sustainable development for the community.
 The human person is political and participates in activities relating to
the conduct of political affairs within the nation and the world. He/She
must

7
 cultivate his/her sense of national and global solidarity. For the former,
love of country and national unity are foremost concerns while in the
latter, global peace and solidarity are the fundamental goals.
The Philosophies
Philosophy gives rise to the curriculum and its methodologies used in
teaching and learning. Three related philosophies explain the content and
methodologies of the CLE-GMRC-VE Curriculum: Philosophy of the Human
Person, Christian Philosophy, and Moral Philosophy.
Imminent to Aristotle’s famous quote, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of
all wisdom,” is the concern of the Philosophy of the Human Person. This is
knowing and inquiring into the what, who, and why of the human person, the
Filipino learner who is the subject as well as the object of the CLE-GMRC-VE
efforts. As discussed in the 1997 framework of the Values Education for the
Filipino, understanding of the Filipino as a human being entails his/her historical
and cultural context, including his/her role in the shaping of society and
environment. These have been adapted and summarized in the following manner:
1. The human person is the subject of education: he is a person learning and being
taught. The human person is also the object: the human person is at the
center of the curriculum and the entire program. The task of education is to
help the Filipino develop his/her human potential, contribute to the growth of
Philippine culture, by controlling the environment, making use of human and
non-human resources, and building appropriate structures and institutions for
the attainment of a just and humane society.
2. The human person is an individual self-conscious being of incalculable value in
himself/herself who cannot be a mere instrument of the society and of the state.
He/She is not just body and soul, but he/she is an embodied spirit.
3. The human person is multidimensional, physical, intellectual, moral, spiritual,
social, economic, and political.
4. The human person does not live in isolation but in community with other
persons. The person’s self grows by developing his/her faculties in contact with
the world and others in the community and by taking an active role in
improving that community. The human person belongs to a family, the basic
unit of society, as well as to a wider and more complex society of men and
women. He/She participates in defining the goals and destinies of the
community and in achieving the common good.
5. The human person gets involved in the economic concerns of livelihood,
sufficiency, production, and consumption.

8
 6. The human person is political. Like other peoples in the world, Filipinos have
constituted themselves onto a nation-state to pursue the goal of social progress
and total human liberation and development (Constitution 1987, Art. II, Sec.
17).
The importance of the Christian Philosophy for the CLE-GMRC-VE
Curriculum cannot be overemphasized for Christian parents, teachers, and
learners. Christian Philosophy embodies every aspect of a learner’s character
formation experience, as he/she learns from home to school, to the church, and
community through various models and events. The Christian Philosophy
advances that learning and transfer of such learning are done through the lens of
the Bible and the Christian doctrines. With this, the learners are provided the
opportunity to stay true to their commitment to follow God’s commandments and
the ways of Jesus Christ. Moreover, the philosophy aims to meet the challenges of
the learners of today in light of the Church’s faith in Jesus Christ.
In view of today’s ever-changing, technological world, Pope Francis calls on
the Christian schools to provide an education that teaches critical thinking and
encourages the development of mature moral values. He asks the teachers not to
teach just the content, but the values and customs of life, with three things that
must be learned: how to love, how to understand which values, and what customs create
harmony in society. Additionally, he says that teachers must aim to build an
educational relationship with each learner, who must feel welcomed and loved for
what he/she is, with all of his/her limitations and potentials.
In Christian Philosophy, each learner is recognized as an expression of God’s
Principle of Individuality, being created in God’s image, unique and endowed
with spiritual and material qualities that set him/her apart from other individuals.
The teaching-learning process allows the recognition and acceptance of each
learner’s strengths and limitations, facilitates the use of his/her intellect, free will,
and conscience to love, discern, act responsibly, improve and become a better
person, and lead others to do the same for the common good.
Moral Philosophy allows learners to contemplate what is right and wrong. It
empowers them through its method and substance to reflect upon and talk about
challenging moral issues. The method of Moral Philosophy requires
understanding concepts and distinctions, knowing what makes arguments
valid, and attending to counterarguments. Such critical thinking skills are useful
in resolving moral issues which involves considering moral principles, appealing
to reasons, and gathering truthful evidences. Moral argument allows the learners
to keep engaging with others even when they disagree about values. Even so,
values are not simply “given,” but can turn out to be amenable to reasoned
discussion based on moral principles (Breakey, 2014).

9
 Virtue ethics developed by Aristotle is a philosophy within moral
philosophy. It is a character-based approach to morality that assumes one to
acquire virtue through practice. By practicing being honest, brave, just, generous,
and so on, a person develops an honorable and moral character. According to
Aristotle, by honing virtuous habits, people will likely make the right choice when
faced with ethical challenges. Virtue ethics makes central use of the concept
of character (University of Texas, 2020).
The combination of the moral philosophy and virtue ethics is deemed
necessary in the CLE-GMRC-VE character formation. While the subject area of
moral philosophy is connected to everyday concerns about the right action or
behavior, virtue ethics is concerned with the good life and what kind of person
one should be. Moral theorists ask, “What is the right action?” and virtue ethicists
ask, “How should I live?” and “What kind of person should I be?” The former
asks the right action here and now, and the latter asks what kind of person should
one be in order to get it right all the time. Virtue ethics is interested in the
acquisition of the virtues as part of the learners’ own well-being and flourishing.
Morality is about other people. It deals with the learners’ actions to the extent that
they affect other people (Internet of Encyclopedia of Philosophy, 2020).
The Whole School Approach
A relevant section of the R.A. No.
11476 (Sec. 7) states that, “For the effective
institutionalization and teaching of GMRC and
Values Education as a core subject, a whole school
approach shall be adopted. This shall facilitate
collaborative action in and by the school community
and other stakeholders to foster parental
involvement and develop home and school
partnership for an inclusive values education
framework.”
In cognizance of the mandate of the law,
the CLE-GMRC-VE Curriculum employs
the Whole School Approach (WSA) as the Figure 3: Four Elements of the
educational means to achieve the learning Whole School Approach
outcome set for the Christian learners. The
WSA indicates that the way to get results must be comprehensive, inclusive, wide-
ranging, all embracing, full, complete, and total. It is not confined to what happens
in the classroom, but all aspects of school life, including involvement of the family,
religious institutions, in connection to civic leaders, authorities, and youth
workers, and active partnership with community agencies and other
stakeholders. Indeed,

10
like the African proverb says, “it takes a village to raise a child.” The approach is
comprehensive and it implies shared responsibility of the school and the
community and their collaborative action in improving learning, character and
well-being of the learners. The whole school approach emphasizes four areas that
work in synergy to make the CLE-GMRC-VE program successful: Curriculum
Content, Pedagogy/ Methodology, Whole School Ethos and Environment, and
Community Partnerships (Punsalan, April 2020).
Curriculum Content – Since the subject and object of the CLE-GMRC-VE is
the Christian learner, the nature of the curriculum content necessarily includes all
that is related to his/her being a person, created in the image and likeness of God
— his/her human nature, and the holistic development of personal, ethical, moral,
and spiritual values. The comprehensiveness and depth of the Christian Doctrine,
Morals, and Worship, integrated into the four national core themes and the seven
core values for the Filipino as presented earlier, are organized carefully into the
learning standards in each of the grade levels in the latter section of this guide.
The integrated curriculum of CLE-GMRC-VE responds to the desire of the
Philippine nation to holistically form the young. Christian Living Education offers
a holistic education of faith with Doctrine, Morals, and Worship (DMW), forming
a person into being Maka-Diyos, Makatao, Makakalikasan, and Makabansa. Doctrine,
Morals, and Worship are the three dimensions of the Catholic Christian faith. The
Catholic faith encompasses what one can know, should do, and may hope for. It
teaches one to believe in the Supreme Being, do His will, and trust His plan.
As Filipinos and the Church as a whole, Doctrine as Paniniwala, Morals as
Pagsunod or Pagtalima, and Worship as Pagsamba or Pagtitiwala, touch one’s entire
being; the head or mind, the hand or will, and the heart. It forms one to know,
to serve, and to love the Lord. Traditionally known as the creed, code, and cult,
Doctrine, Morals, and Worship comprise the essentials of the Christian faith; the
CREED or set of beliefs, the COMMANDMENTS and VIRTUES, and the
PRAYERS and SACRAMENTS, the liturgy. These three dimensions of the
Christian faith reveal Christ’s threefold functions as the Prophet, the King, and the
Priest who is the ultimate Truth, the only Way, and the fullness of Life.
The Catechesis or the education in the Christian faith, whether be it at home,
in school, or in parishes, is only real and effective if it has the Doctrine, Morals,
and Worship. These three will bring a learner to a genuine personal maturity who
is able to love, discern, and act for the common good. It is for this reason that
every lesson in the Christian Living and Values Education subject should be
complete and integrated. If the topic is a Doctrine, the faith dimensions on Morals
and Worship should be taught along with the Doctrine. The three dimensions of
faith are interwoven in the teaching-learning process.

11
 The development of the skills required for the 21st Century Learner focusing
on the “Seven Cs” is embedded in the curriculum for CLE-GMRC-VE. The 7 Cs
include: critical thinking, creativity innovation, collaboration, communication,
cross-cultural understanding, computing technology, and career learning. In
addition, the Five Macro-skills prescribed by the Department of Education (EsP
Curriculum Guide, 2016) are developed in the learners for moral living:
understanding, reflecting, consulting, discernment and decision-making, and
acting.
1. Understanding. It is important that the learners demonstrate the ability to
draw upon concepts and principles that illuminate one’s own
experience, situations that are observed, analyzed, and contemplated
using objective moral standards and Christian doctrines.
2. Reflecting. Amidst the rapid flow of information and environmental
noise, learners need to devote time and thoughtfulness to the situations
observed and the concepts learned about moral living.
3. Consulting. The learners should seek advice or guidance from people who
have more knowledge or skills in moral living and weigh information
from a variety of media based on objective moral standards.
4. Discernment and Decision-making. The learners must learn to develop
their own position and beliefs or actions that are based on objective
moral standards and go through the process of discernment, a
perceptive way to determine God’s desire for one’s life.
5. Acting. It is important that the learners apply the concept or principle
drawn from the concrete situations of life and demonstrate a willingness
to practice the virtues learned based on moral principles.
Pedagogy/Methodology – Becoming a Christ-centered person depends
largely on the modelling of the teacher. It is for this reason that the Christlikeness
of the teachers i.e., their values, virtues, and their caring attitude to the learners, be
given primary importance in the CLE-GMRC-VE program. “The goal of our
instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.” (I
Timothy 1:5). The effectiveness of teaching Christian Living and moral life is
relative to the personal witnessing provided by the teacher. Understandably,
many schools put a high premium on the teachers’ professional competence to
teach the subject but the teacher who is spiritually prepared has half the work
done. Half of the worry would be the teacher’s concern about the content and
pedagogical knowledge to demonstrate effective teaching.
The methodology of the ACES (Affective-Cognitive Experiences for Self-
direction) approach has been widely used in the teaching of Values Education
across the years until today. It has been incorporated in teacher training not only

12
for Values Education teachers but also for those in other learning areas. It follows
Kolb’s experiential learning cycle which is more appropriate given the nature of
values formation process. The methodology has a unique personal and subjective
nature of learning and is best attained through having the learner undergo the
experiences by himself/herself and also with others in a group. It is basically an
inductive approach that many Religious Education teachers use in the classrooms
(Dees, 2011). The ACES methodology integrates the strengths of 5 major strategies:
Values Clarification, Values Analysis, Inculcation/Modelling, Moral Development,
and Action Learning, into a confluence of the affective and cognitive components
of learning. Moreover, it has been enhanced for today’s use in a new instructional
design that applies the experiential, constructivist, inquiry-based, reflective,
collaborative, and integrative learning methodologies in the 4 As (Activity,
Analysis, Abstraction, Application) stages. By design, lessons are done stressing
the nine events of instruction by Robert Gagne, a 1992 model regaining grounds
recently in various learning areas: (G1) gain attention; (G2) inform learners of
objectives; (G3) stimulate recall of prior learning; (G4) present the content; (G5)
provide “learning guidance”; (G6) elicit performance or practice; (G7) provide
feedback; (G8) assess performance; and (G9) enhance retention and transfer
learning. Moreover, new teaching-learning demands are emphasized, i.e., learner-
centeredness, 21st century education skills, holistic T-L objectives, differentiated
instruction, constructive alignment, and authentic learning assessment for
optimum results. These are carefully embedded in appropriate points/stages of the
learning activities stressing the tenets of the Whole Child Approach (ACCD, n.d.)
that the learner is safe, healthy, engaged, challenged, and supported in the entire
teaching-learning episode (Punsalan, 2020).
Parts of the CLE-GMRC-VE lesson episodes ensure that the appropriate
DMW or the three dimensions of faith are completely delivered. Following the 4
As experiential learning process and Gagne’s instructional design, the Doctrine
dimension is effectively embedded in the abstraction part where inculcation of the
lesson content is done, allowing the learners to form the key concept. The Morals
dimension is given more stress in the application or the transfer of learning part,
while the Worship dimension is done more meaningfully in the conclusion when
learners would have achieved a full grasp of the entire lesson.
There may be variations in the points where the faith dimensions of Doctrine,
Morals, and Worship (DMW) are used depending on the lesson focus. The
Doctrine may be used at the beginning of the lesson as the activity where
individual learners or groups discuss and illustrate the Doctrine with their own
experiences. Sometimes, Worship may be set in the beginning as the opening
prayer or as an introduction of the focus of the lesson. Whatever is the dimension
of faith that is focused in a lesson, the other two dimensions are integrated. In this
way, the learners receive an integral formation of faith in the context of their
experiences. The content standards,

13
performance standards, and learning competencies both of the Christian Living
Education and GMRC-VE, however comprehensive they may be, correspond to
one another, directing all learners into mature, responsible, and moral individuals.
The integration of faith, culture, and life is an indispensable purpose of the
CLE-GMRC-VE instruction. Culture and faith are achieved by the integration of
all the various learning areas in different fields of human knowledge in the light of
the Gospel. The various subjects do not only aim to develop knowledge and skills
but also values, virtues, and the discovery of truth. Integration of faith and life is
part of a lifelong process of conversion until the learner becomes what God wishes
him/her to be. Faith and life are interlocked in the growth of the Christian learners.
Young people have to be provided learning opportunities to share their personal
lives with God—to be Christ-centered, to commit themselves to serve God and
their kapwa, and to contribute in building a better place.
Moreover, the integration of culture, faith, and life is facilitated by the
teacher. By imitating the Great Teacher, the teachers are called to bring the light of
the Christian message not only by their teaching per se or their words but also by
their character. Christian schools that put a high premium on the CLE-GMRC-VE
as the core of all subjects, and not just one of the other subjects, with the teachers’
replete with the Christian spirit integrate faith and culture and naturally guide the
learners to personal integration of faith and life.
Whole School Ethos and Environment – The whole school approach
emphasizes addressing the needs of learners, staff, and the wider community
within the curriculum and across the whole school and learning environment. A
positive school culture is one where individuals feel valued, cared for, and
respected. The school with a positive school culture is a place where there are
positive experiences for all teachers, personnel, school head, and learners
especially regarding the very values that are being taught in the classrooms. For
instance, how can the culture of Christ-centeredness and the values of Maka-Diyos,
Makatao, Makabansa, Makakalikasan be fostered in the whole school environment so
that what the learners learn from their lessons in the classroom can be supported
by what they experience around the school community?
The CLE-GMRC-VE program contributes in shaping the ethos that reflect the
defining characteristics of a Catholic School indicated in the Philippine Catholic
Schools Standards (PCSS, 2016): (1) Centered in the person and message of Jesus
Christ; (2) Participating in the evangelizing mission of the Church; (3) Animated
by the Spirit of Communion; (4) Established as an ecclesial institution; (5)
Distinguished by a culture of excellence; (6) Committed to integral formation; and
(7) Engaged in the service of the Church and society with preferential option for
the poor. In the PCSS vision, mission, and goals, the Catholic schools are
expected to

14
inculcate among learners and staff the practice of the Gospel core values that the
CLE-GMRC-VE intends to foster such as the values of sharing, service, solidarity,
integrity, justice, truth, humility, and charity.
Not only the learners but all school personnel must show in their practice
the Christian faith in the whole school and community, through: Deepening of the
articles of faith, Praying and reading of the Word of God, Strengthening of moral
life, Celebration of the Liturgy, Sacraments, and Marian devotions, and
Stewardship of God’s creation.
1. Deepening of the articles of faith – The core and foundation of Christian
Living Education are the articles of faith or the Creed. The twelve
articles are the summary of the Christian faith and as St. Thomas
Aquinas defined, are supernatural truths that form the organic whole of
Christian teaching which are necessary to be believed for human’s
salvation. Thus, all lessons in Christian Living Education are geared
toward the deepening of these articles of faith and applying these in the
entire school community so as to lead Christian learners to a deeper
personal relationship with Christ and His promised salvation and glory.
2. Praying and reading of the Word of God – Reading and praying the Word
of God allows a Catholic learner to understand and live out its message.
This is not confined in lessons in the classrooms but in all the religious
activities done in the entire school. Hence, reading and praying the
Word of God in Lectio Divina way is a hallmark of school culture in a
Catholic school. This influences not only the learners but the school staff
in their lifestyle and spirituality anchored on and inspired by the Holy
Bible. “When it comes to worship and prayer, we should never
underestimate the ability of young people to be open to contemplative
prayer. In many settings, young Catholics are asking for prayer
opportunities and sacramental celebrations capable of speaking to their
daily lives through a fresh, authentic and joyful liturgy” (Christus Vivit,
224).
3. Strengthening of moral life – The Christian faith influences the moral life
of the Christian learners in the following ways: by giving reason for
acting in a Christian way, developing the attitude and disposition of
Christ and by inspiring Christ-like affections (CFC 138). Faith gives rise
to and calls for a life commitment with Christ. Christians’ acts of charity
become the witness before God and neighbors of the gift of Jesus who
is the moral norm. The learners and their CLE-GMRC-VE teachers can
only fulfill this in solidarity with the entire school community. Together
as one community, they hopefully act consistently the Christian way—a
conversion that transforms each learner as a whole person having

15
 responsible attitudes and actions. With the guidance of the Holy Spirit
and the school culture that nourishes them spiritually, their moral lives
are strengthened as Christian learners.
4. Celebration of the Liturgy and Sacraments – The Christian education offered
to the learners are meant to enlighten and strengthen their faith and at
the same time nourish their life according to the Spirit of Christ,
teaching them how to worship God the Father in spirit and truth
(Gravissimum Educationis), leading them to a “full and active
participation” (Sacrosanctum Concilium) in the liturgical celebrations
especially in the Holy Eucharist, manifesting the true Christian Spirit.
Through the school- wide celebration of the Liturgy, learners are
provided opportunities and venues for both personal and
communitarian prayers where they could strengthen and celebrate
their FAITH IN GOD with the school community. The learners are
also educated toward a profound understanding of the relationship
between the Liturgy and their daily lives, thus, living a Christ-centered
life.
Jesus touches the lives of everybody in the school community
through the Sacraments. As Pope Francis explains, the Sacraments are
gifts of faith. This faith must flourish in the entire school community.
The Sacraments must be practiced and be well understood as signs of
Jesus’ presence in everyone’s lives and means of receiving His grace.
The school must actively be in solidarity with the Church in celebrating
the Seven Sacraments, which are divided into three categories, namely:
Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist,); Sacraments
of Healing (Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick); and Sacraments at the
Service of Communion (Holy Orders, Marriage).

5. Marian Devotions – How is Filipino affection for ‘Mama Mary’ through

the Marian devotion shown in the whole school? How do the people
piously practice the true meaning of the unique display of affection to
Mary, e.g., Santa Cruzan and praying the rosary? How can the school
sustain the culture of ‘pueblo amante de Maria’ or the people in love with
Mary, known to be observed only in the country? As Archbishop Luis
Antonio G. Cardinal Tagle (2013) wrote, “We love Mary because she is
the Spirit-filled Mother given to us by Jesus before He breathed His last.
A new family was born at the foot of Jesus’ cross…Mary and Jesus’
disciples are at the core of that spiritual family of God.”
6. Stewardship of God’s creation – Becoming a steward of God’s creation lies
not only in the work of a single person but also a collective endeavor.
The wisdom and intelligence of the Creator is seen in the order and
interdependence of creation that makes life viable. Disrupting
this order and interdependence constitutes a grave consequence which

16
 leads to eventual destruction. It is therefore the duty of every member of
the school community to inculcate the importance of preserving creation
as a gesture of respect to Him who orderly fashioned the world out of
his goodness. This is a task that exempts no one for the benefit of the
common good (Laudato Si', 92).
Community Partnerships – Religious instruction and values education
inevitably expand outside the school community. This involves partnerships with
the internal stakeholders, parents, staff, and learners. It involves community links
with the external stakeholders like other schools, government, and non-
government organizations such as family, church, media, civil and economic
society, youth groups, and all community agencies. Having the whole community
involved in the learner’s character formation is essential. Aside from conducting
joint activities of the school and community, partnerships enable needed resources
to be brought into the school to support CLE-GMRC-VE programs and activities.
The whole school approach includes the whole community’s full participation to
enable the kind of values system envisioned for the learners to succeed
(Punsalan, 2020).
Community partnerships may be done through the following:
1. The Integration of faith, culture, and life flourishes with community
partnerships allowing the Christian learners to grow in faith and life
with their families, barangays, church, civil society, and youth sector.
Adolescent Christian learners, for instance, in their volunteer work
together with other adults in the community, certainly learn what it is
like to live out the beatitudes for real. This kind of community
partnerships provides opportunities to learners to experience and grow
in faith and life, and contribute their share in building a just, peaceful,
and humane society.

2. The New Evangelization urgently calls the teachers as facilitators of

learning who guide the Christian learners to proclaim the love of Christ
to all peoples and to develop sense of faithfulness to Catholic faith and
live a life founded on Christian Spirituality. Catholic schools are urged
to create, explore, and discover ‘the new methods and means for
transmitting the Good News more effectively to people, always under
the guidance of the Spirit (CBCP Pastoral Exhortation on the New Era of
Evangelization) in particular to the adolescents. Certainly, community
partners can be relied upon to join ‘school centers’ that CLE-GMRC-VE
teachers and learners could create for instance, to strengthen the faith
and practice of Catholics in the community. “Young people know how
to organize events, sports competitions and ways to evangelize using
social media, through text messages, songs, videos and other ways. They
only have to be encouraged and given the freedom to be enthused about
evangelizing other young people wherever they are to be found”
(Christus Vivit, 210).

17
 3. Inculturation takes place as “an enriching encounter between the Gospel
and a people with its particular culture and tradition” (FABC, 1991).
As part of the community, a Catholic school needs to be in constant
collaboration with its stakeholders in matters of preserving the faith
and its practices. CLE-GMRC-VE, as the core of the curriculum in every
Catholic school where the person of Jesus and His way of life is the basis
of faith formation or catechesis, becomes the medium of inculturation,
contextualizing the delivery of the message of the Gospel in a manner
that is best understood by and set off to the members of the community
to become mature members of the Church.
4. Community Christian Formation is achieved by direct involvement in
community-based learning interactions that may include but not limited
to adopting urban poor communities, medical missions, immersions,
and the like. It is within these collaborations with the community that
the envisioned values system of the learner is achieved and cultivated.
The CLE-GMRC-VE education program, being the core of the
curriculum, fully implements formation in the community which leads
to the ultimate goal of holistic education of the learners that happens
within and outside the walls of the school through its partners in
adopted communities, NGOs, media, and other community agencies.
5. Vocation and Mission are discerned calling in moments of SILENCE
and prayer. Many learners when asked about their reasons why they
go to school would give answers that are related to personal goals and
ambitions. Thus, it is a challenge to Christian institutions to provide
learning opportunities that would motivate learners to aspire in
bringing a genuine transformation in the society. Learning activities
should develop Christian learners to passionately involve themselves in
outreach activities as forms of service and stewardship to God’s creation
that prepare them for a well-discerned Christian vocation and mission.
This is where community partnerships become relevant. Like the
apostles, Christian learners at present are commissioned by Christ to
continue His mission by becoming agents of change in the society,
responding to the signs of the times. Identified willing community
partners can serve as the Christian institution’s venues and Jesus’
vineyard in promoting a holistic “education for justice and social
transformation” to promote and concretize the dreams and goals for the
learners’ Christian vocation and mission. A successful school and
community partnership in vocation promotion certainly continues the
creative mission of God the Father through the Church who brings His
Word to the world through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Thus,
“Youth missions…after a period of preparation, can lead to a renewed
experience of faith and even serious thoughts about (a learner’s)
vocation” (Christus Vivit, 240).
