Towards Standards-Based Quality Assurance for Senior High Schools

A Three-day Webinar-Workshop for SHS Administrators

RATIONALE

Effective school improvement is high on the agenda of Philippine education policies. Integral to
its mandate to uplift Philippine private education and in pursuit of its strategic direction of
enabling and empowering schools, the Private Education Assistance Committee (PEAC)
endeavors to strengthen and upgrade the continuous improvement efforts of schools. More
specifically, PEAC has defined much-needed assistance interventions towards improvement of
school quality such as professional development for administrators and teachers in order to meet
the changing demands and challenges of the current educational system.

Optimizing a 2019 DepEd-commissioned work for a SHS certification assessment instrument (SHS
CAI), PEAC is conducting a three-day webinar-workshop on internal quality assurance towards
continuing school improvement for school administrators of Senior High Schools (SHS) under the
Voucher Program managed by PEAC. This webinar-workshop aims to first, orient school
administrators on the importance and process of quality assurance as a vital mechanism for
attaining school excellence. Second, the program introduces to the participants the proposed
SHS CAI, as a tool for quality assurance and a vantage point for school improvement planning.

OBJECTIVES

By the end of the training, the participants are expected to be able to do the following:
1. Explain the importance of conducting Internal Quality Assurance in the delivery of the SHS
program
2. Map the delivery of the SHS program with the Standards of Compliance in the proposed
SHS CAI
3. Unpack and discuss Standards of Compliance in the proposed SHS CAI Core and Support
Areas in terms of their Look-Fors and Evidences of Compliance
4. Conduct the process of self-assessment for QA using the proposed SHS CAI
5. Identify areas of school improvement planning and formulate corresponding sample SSIP
6. Assess the adequacy and alignment of their sample SSIP using the standards in the
proposed SHS CAI and rubric evaluation form
