INTRODUCTION:

The Department of Education (DepEd) is continuously putting efforts

into launching and developing a series of programs, projects, and frameworks
to guide all schools in the country. This is to address learning gaps, needs,
challenges, and concerns of the teaching-learning process to ensure that
quality education is met in all aspects according to the standards of the
Department. As many schools open doors to physical learning, the
Department programs are being monitored as part of the post-pandemic
efforts. This annual accomplishment report compilation is purposely gathered
to assess the different programs and to look into the interventions formulated
to solve the problems met. This way, teachers, administrators, as well as
learners can catch up and accelerate their learning.
Moreover, this report also aims to highlight the different
accomplishments of each school in CY 2022. So far, different proposals of
strategies and recovery programs are anchored to learning remediation and
intervention, professional development, health, safety, and wellness to
reinforce the teaching and learning process. Also, to remedy some of the
existing problems in schools, the district has identified practical solutions such
as the provision of learning support centers in schools and community-based
learning spaces, conducting summer learning remediation and intervention
programs, hiring additional learning support aides, and many more.
Furthermore, Tukuran West District together with its administrators and
teaching force plan to intensify its efforts primarily on literacy and numeracy
interventions to let learners cope with the learning difficulties that the
pandemic has brought to them. Schools in the district have conducted regular
home visits and follow-ups, implemented physical and virtual study
groups/buddy systems, establish literacy at home and in the community, tap
the services of parent or guardian teacher-volunteers, and develop
appropriate assessment tasks and resources and conduct career guidance
assessments to students. Schools have to learn action cell sessions, adaptive
teaching strategies, and classroom assessments, and a shift from the
traditional approach to tailored acceleration is being eyed for the professional
development of teachers. Part of the educational framework is the concept of
addressing the socio-emotional and behavioral recovery of learners. The
Oplan Kalusugan and SBFP programs are strengthened. In addition, several
programs that focus on child protection are launched to further uphold the
welfare of all learners.
Finally, for CY 2022, the Tukuran West District has accomplished
100% of the identified programs set by the Division of Zamboanga del Sur.
There were short strategies/interventions were conducted. For the CY 2023, it
is expected the district, along with the Division of Zamboanga del Sur will
cover the building on learning and longer-term improvements will be
implemented. This is to target many other educational objectives where long-
term sustainable gains will be accelerated and innovated.
