SCHOOLS DIVISION OF RIZAL

FOREWORD
Originating from a public-service-oriented organization in building achievements of providing
Quality, Accessible, Relevant, and Liberating Basic Education for All, BLUE Rizal continues to exude its
warmest and most powerful features to contribute to its long-term and sustainable goals.
During the vast societal change caused by the pandemic in the past few years, a more
compassionate, calm, and educated Rizaleños were observed, making Rizal a haven for everyone and
a strong and established division regardless of the circumstances or individuals it encounters. BLUE
Rizal people retain their distinctive traits despite being exposed to various pressures, much to how a
blue color never loses its identity when blended with different hues. Thus, these features ignite the
SDO Rizal's BLUE flame, the color of the hottest flare that represents power as the division commits
to braving the challenging changes and addressing the immediate impacts of the pandemic on
learning, managing remaining access gaps, and improving education quality, equity, and resiliency.
As it shapes its home for the next six years, DepEd Rizal has translated its policies and
aspirations into the definition of "Mapusong Paglilingkod" with a formulated Division Education
Development Plan (DEDP) for 2023-2028.
This DEDP is a BLUE RIZAL's blueprint to BUILD Access to ensure that all learners access and
receive intended services needed in basic education; LIFT Equity to secure that all learners participate
equitably and meaningfully regardless of status, ethnicity, sex, disability, age and other social
characteristics ; UPHOLD Quality to equip the learners with the necessary skills and attributes to
pursue their chosen path; and EMPOWER Learners' Resiliency and Well-being to guarantee that
learners develop a positive mindset , can adapt to change , and apply their rights.
These four BLUE pillars are envisioned to contribute to the thriving world that the division
wants to achieve through the Enabling Mechanisms and the TORCH (Trailblazing Onwards Recovering
and Changing Horizons) of the Learning Recovery Plan for the fullest realization of the policies, plans,
programs, and projects covering formal and non-formal basic education for both public and private
schools in Rizal.
The BLUE Rizal’s DEDP is a testament to the serious commitment to establishing a quality
education service towards 2030, presenting evidence-based priorities with a trajectory of strategic
directions to maintain high-quality standards in education consistent with the 2030 Agenda for
Sustainable Development and the country's national ambition stated in Ambisyon Natin 2040.
As with building a house, the DEDP requires a foundation before construction can begin. As
Blue Rizal lays out its vision, both its historical strengths and weaknesses, as well as its recommended
strategies, have been taken into account. The previous years' pain points and bottlenecks were also
traced back when building the system to ensure the delivery of the proper technique and services in
the following years.
Moreover, this DEDP was created through an inclusive and rigorous process that incorporated
the perspectives and priorities of education sector stakeholders. Time and effort have also brought
everyone to this point. Similar to building a home, there will be obstacles, and it will take the combined
efforts of everyone to achieve success. A succession of writeshops, meetings, and consultations
ii
resulted in the manuscript's completion. Extensive engagement and collaboration with partners have
also ensured the participatory nature of the endeavor in subsequent years. This fosters a sense of
ownership in the development of DEDP, which stimulates Rizaleños to strive for excellence since they
understand their roles, contributions, and what they will be held accountable for in achieving the
grand vision of shaping education in the future to provide improved learning outcomes.
This plan also includes monitoring and evaluation for measuring success; the collected data
will be analyzed, presented, and utilized. Living in residence for years drives the desire to make
modifications, such as rearranging the furnishings or incorporating additional study space. Due to the
DEDP's versatility and scalability, it is simple and possible to integrate updates and enhancements for
future evaluations.
The significant future impact of this tremendous undertaking is a tribute to the dedication and
determination of everyone involved in creating this plan that will advance the education agenda in
Rizal.

INTRODUCTION
I. INTRODUCTION
The Division Education Development Plan (DEDP) lays out the strategic directions and
goals of the Division for 2023-2028. It is based on the division’s 1) performance on access,
equity, quality, and resiliency and well-being for the past three to five years, and 2) analysis
of its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT). Pareto analysis and various
forecasting methods determined concern areas of the division in terms of key performance
indicators, priority schools, and learning and management or operation areas. The analysis of
the context of the division.
This section provides information on the geographical constitution of Rizal Province
and the brief topography of the municipalities, its climate and weather condition, population,
disaster risks and inflation data. All of which have implications, individually or combined, in
the forecast and preparations for adequate learning resources and safe environment, suitable
modalities vis-à-vis aforementioned aspects, and management plans on different hazards and
potential threats.
It also introduces the division in terms of the number of schools (public and private),
the number of teachers, critical resources, and organizational structure.
Geography. The province of Rizal has a land area of 1,191.94 square kilometers or
460.21 square miles, occupying the northern-central section of CALABARZON in Luzon. It is
bounded by Sierra Madre Mountain Ranges and Quezon Province in the east, Laguna
province in the southwest, the province of Bulacan in the north, Metropolitan Manila in the
west-northwest portion and by Laguna de Bay in south/south-western portion. At the foot
of these elevations are the Marikina Valley and Teresa Valley.
The terrain is mostly low and flat on the western part and rolling hills and rugged
ridges on the eastern part. Based on Philippine Forestry Statistics Rizal Province has a total
of 16,770 hectares of forestlands with 75% considered as open forest cover and 25% or 4,139
hectares closed forest. There is no reported mangrove area in Rizal Province.
The largest municipality in terms of land area is Tanay with 200 square kilometers area
followed by Montalban with 172.65, and third is Baras that has 84.93 square kilometers area.
The smallest municipality in Rizal Province is Teresa with an area of 18.61 square kilometers.
The municipality of Binangonan has the most with 40 barangays followed by Tanay as the
distant second with 19 barangays, Cardona with 18 and San Mateo with 15 barangays. On the
other hand, Taytay has the least number with only 5 barangays.
1
Population density. In terms of density, Rizal province is the second most densely populated
in the region with 1,942 persons per square kilometers, 38.73 percent greater than the region.
Migration has been noted in Taytay and Cainta because of their growing trade and industry,
as well as their proximity to Metro Manila. The increase of their population is also due to
resettlements from Manila to Montalban, Tanay and other Rizal municipalities. Montalban
has experienced the largest increase in population share since 2000 with a net increase of
7.30 percent.

Disaster Risks. The Mines and Geosciences Bureau reports that three municipalities in Rizal
Province have landslide susceptible barangays- Jalajala, Montalban and San Mateo. The maps
show the susceptibility by colors: maroon (very high), red (high), green (moderate), yellow
(low), and with stripes illustrating debris flow path or possible accumulation zone.
LEGEND OF MAP:
Very high landslide susceptibility
Areas usually with steep to very steep slopes and underlain by weak
materials. Recent landslides, escarpments and tension cracks are
present. Human initiated effects could be an aggravating factor.
High landslide susceptibility
Areas usually with steep to very steep slopes and underlain by weak
materials. Areas with numerous old/inactive landslides.
Moderate landslide susceptibility
Areas with moderately steep slopes. Soil creep and other indications
for possible landslide occurrence are present.
Low landslide susceptibility
Gently sloping areas with no identified landslides
Debris flow path/ Possible accumulation zone
Areas that could be affected by landslide debris zone

Figure 2
Landslide Hazard Map of Barangay Bagumbong and Punta, Jalajala, Rizal
The four barangays in Jalajala, Rizal that are landslide prone are Barangay Bayugo,
Barangay Sipsipin, Barangay Bagumbong, and Barangay Punta.
Barangay Bayugo has the largest portion of high susceptibility to landslides, with about
a-third areas that are highly at risk. The inner portion is covered with red and green, indicating
numerous old and inactive landslides as well as possible landslides to occur. The smaller
portion, outer part of Barangay Bayugo has low susceptibility and no identified landslide.
Barangay Sipsipin has half of its area with moderate to high landslide susceptibility.
Nearly half of the portion is covered with yellow marks implying no landslides identified.
Figure 2 shows the landslide hazard maps of Barangay Bagumbong and Punta in
Jalajala, Rizal. The bigger parts have no landslide recorded. The smaller portions have
moderate to high landslide susceptibility.
In Montalban, two barangays namely San Isidro and Calawis are presented with
landslide hazard maps. Looking at Figure 3 on the next page, notice that Barangay San Isidro
is predominantly highly susceptible to landslides, more particularly San Isidro II.
On the other hand, the hazard map of Barangay Calawis illustrates few parts that are
at high risk. However, many parts are within the possibility of a landslide to happen. There
are also parts that are at low risk of landslides.

The landslide hazard map of Barangay Pintong Bukawe in San Mateo is presented in
Figure 5. Majority of the areas have the potential for landslides. Some had previous landslides
and therefore are at high risk. Smaller parts (in yellow) of the barangay have low susceptibility
as these had no identified landslides.

Furthermore, it ranked 6th in the combined risk to climate disasters. This is based on
the assessment of risks on temperature increase, rainfall change, typhoons and drought,
utilizing Atlas or collection of associated maps and on calculations or projection formula.
Other provinces in Region IV-A are also at risk of climate disasters like Cavite (rank 8), Laguna
(rank 10) and Batangas (rank 11) in the national level.
Overall, Rizal province has high risk in landslide disasters and climate disasters.
Vulnerability to disasters may also be compounded by other factors like population density,
economy of the locality, and other exposure. Thus, it needs to take actions to strengthen
capability to respond to disasters, better access to roads, transportation, and communication
are crucial. It will also be useful to conduct localized risk mapping in schools and coordinate
with the respective local government units.
Economic Development. Rizal Province is composed of four municipal classes. The first-class
municipalities are those with an average annual income of Php55M or more during the
previous four calendar years. The high-income earners in Rizal Province are Cainta, Taytay,
Binangonan, San Mateo, Montalban, Angono, Tanay, and Pililla. Meanwhile, the second-class
municipalities are Morong and Teresa earning an annual income between Php 45M to Php
54,999,999 for the past four calendar years.
Baras and Cardona are among the third-class municipalities that have produced a
yearly income from Php 35M to Php 44,999,999. The least earning and under fourth class
municipality is Jalajala, with an average annual income within Php 25M and Php 34,999,999.
The complex data that measure economic development of the province and its
municipalities are explained in this report. Rather, it bases on the scores and ranking of scores
based on the indicators by the National Competitiveness Council. Except for government
efficiency index, three indicators are taken in, namely 1) economic dynamism, 2)
infrastructure, and 3) resilience index to show the economic growth and status of the
municipalities.

KEY FEATURES
OF THE DIVISION
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
II. KEY FEATURES OF THE DIVISION EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT PLAN
The Division Education Development Plan is composed of four pillars namely: access,
equity, quality, and resilience and well-being, and the enabling mechanisms of governance or
management and operations. These pillars are the priority development areas which the
Department has put forward in the BEDP 2030 indicated in DepEd Order No. 24, s. 2022
includes:
1. pivoting to quality, ensuring that all learners attain learning standards in every key
stage in the K to 12 program;
2. expanding access to education for groups in situations of disadvantage to ensure
inclusive and equitable quality service delivery;
3. empowering learners to be resilient and to acquire life skills; and
4. strengthening the promotion of the overall well-being of learners in a positive
learning environment where learners exercise their rights and experience joy, while
being aware of their responsibilities as individuals and as members of society.
The context of the division and its analyses of the key performance indicators in the four
pillars are discussed in this material. Based on the analyses, the forecasts and plans for the
six years, and the management and operations strategies are then laid out.
The major programs of the division are included in the 6-year blueprint with key
milestones and outcomes in specific years including the monitoring and evaluation scheme
for each pillar.
With the aim of bringing all school-aged learners to schools regardless of ethnicity, color,
gender, religion, age and economic status, schools in SDO Rizal Bring and Uphold
Intended Learning Demands (BUILD) as it exerts efforts in terms of ACCESS.
Division Context and Analysis of Key Performance Indicators on Access to Quality Basic
Education for All
This pillar discusses the analysis of SDO-Rizal’s Key Performance Indicators on access
which includes Gross Enrolment Rate, Net Enrolment Rate, Net Intake Rate, Dropout Rate,
Completion Rate, School Leaver Rate, Retention Rate, and Transition Rate, targets, strategies
and outputs.
11
SDO Rizal has accomplished many initiatives in the past in terms of bringing all school-
aged learners to schools considering the interest, aptitude, inclination, and socio- economic
status of learners. SDO Rizal is committed to bring all learners to school because the division
believes that education is a right.

The performance in GER for elementary can be attributed to factors like employment
and COVID- 19. Overage learners tend to work in nearby cities and provinces and sacrifice
their education for their families. This situation was aggravated by the COVID- 19 pandemic.
The national health concern has affected the lives of many and has taken a toll in the
economic condition of families. Because people lost their jobs, plus the additional expenses
required to continue distance learning modalities, overage learners opted to work to help and
support their families.
On the other hand, the performance in GER for secondary can be credited to the
strengthened implementation of other curricular and inclusive programs such as the
Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM), Special Education (SPED), Inclusive Education, Madrasah,
and other interest programs.
Other division and
school initiatives were also
considered to contribute to
the behavior of the GER.
These are Balik- Paaralan
Program; the use of
technology/ media during
enrolment; assignment of
data focal person in schools;
dissemination of streamlined
processes on enrollment;
and access to schools in
every barangay. Discussion about ALS is provided on Pillar 2, Equity.
To rectify the ordeal, SDO Rizal resorts to shifting of classes, a total of 84 elementary,
35 Junior High Schools, and 13 Senior High Schools resort to two shifting of classes while 11
elementary, four Junior High School, and one Senior High School implement the three- shift
scheme. These are interventions to ensure that all learners are in schools and provided with
opportunities towards learning recovery.
14
The increase in NER is attributed to factors such as migration since the Province of
Rizal is a relocation hotspot due to its proximity to Metro Manila, Quezon, Laguna, Bulacan,
and other nearby provinces. Also, policies that support and strengthen the implementation
of Kindergarten Program (DO 47 s. 2016) and School- Based Feeding Program (DO 23, s. 2020);
and the implementation of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) were
implemented.
Likewise, the implementation of curricular and inclusive programs and modalities that
includes Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM), Special Education (SPED), Inclusive Education,
Madrasah, and other interest programs contributed to the rise of the division NER.
Government study grants such as Education Service Contracting (ESC) and SHS
voucher program; and various scholarships like Scholar ni Gov (with 678 scholars for SY 2021-
2022) also contributed to the rise of NER in the Division of Rizal. Meanwhile, the significant
decrease in NER is greatly ascribed to the pandemic. During SY 2020-2021, DepEd commenced
its implementation of the different distance learning modalities. These distance learning
modalities caused a dilemma to the learners and their parents especially those who
experienced economic, technological, and competency limitations.
The pandemic also affected the completion of numerous government projects and
triggered a hiatus in the implementation of various DepEd programs such as the School- based
Feeding Program and Gulayan sa Paaralan.
It is also undeniable that in this period, many private schools were forced to close. In
DepEd Rizal a whooping 55 private education institutions ceased its operation in SY 2020-
2021 due to low enrollment, financial concerns, availability of teachers, and other operation-
related ordeals brought by COVID-19. This closure has a substantial effect on the NER of the
division.
Moreover, the department sees the dawning of the in- person classes, SDO Rizal
confronts problems on classrooms and facilities. Classroom- learner ratio of the division is at
1:49 for elementary, 1:48 for the Junior High School and 1:66 for the Senior High School which
is slightly higher than the ideal classroom- learner ratio (except for the SHS). This poses
classroom requirements of 7,856 for elementary, 3,560 for Junior High School, and 845 for
Senior High School.
15
This performance in NIR is attributed to various DepEd Orders such as DepEd Order No.
47, s. 2016 or the Omnibus Policy on Kindergarten Education and DepEd Order No. 20 s. 2018
or the Amendment to DepEd Order No. 47 s. 2016 which presents inconsistencies in the cut-
off age of the incoming kindergarten learners.

division. Others did not continue schooling due to the difficulty of the distance learning
modalities that caused some of the students to struggle to finish their schooling.
School Leaver Rate (Elementary and Secondary)
The School Leaver Rate (SLR) in elementary was erratic in the last five years (SY 2015-
2016 to SY 2019- 2020) with a major increase in SY 2020-2021. SLR in SY 2020- 2021 recorded
the highest at 5.81 while the lowest was recorded at 0.01 in SY 2018- 2019.
Same with the elementary, the school leaver rate (SLR) in the secondary schools was
also erratic in the last five years (SY 2015-2016 to SY 2019- 2020) with a major increase in SY
2020-2021. SLR in SY 2020- 2021 recorded the highest at 8.21 while the lowest was recorded
at 0.83 in SY 2018- 2019.
The significant increase in SLR is greatly attributed to the pandemic. In School Year
2020-2021, distance learning modalities were imposed to all schools and caused problems
across DepEd. The implementation of the distance learning modality has substantial effect on
the SLR of the Division of Rizal.
Retention Rate (Elementary and Secondary)
Elementary retention rate showed a downward trend in the last three years from
101.41 in SY 2018-2019 to 94 in SY 2020-2021. Meanwhile, secondary retention rate was
inconsistent in the last three years with a highest recorded performance in SY 2019-2020 at
95 while the lowest is at 91 in SY 2020-2021. The decrease can be largely associated to COVID-
19 pandemic since schools were forced to halt their operation starting at the end of School
Year 2019-2020.
Transition Rate (Elementary and Secondary)
The performance in elementary transition rate has also been erratic in the last six
years. An upward trend was recorded starting SY 2015-2016 (97.89) to SY 2018-2019 (100.33)
but declined in SY 2019-2020 (99.30) and continued to decrease until SY 2020-2021 (92.93).
Similar to elementary, the Junior High School transition rate has also been inconsistent
in the last six years. Highest recorded is at 95.25 in SY 2015-2016 and the lowest is at 83.87 in
SY 2020-2021.
The Senior High School program is also comparable with that of elementary and Junior
High School retention rates. Highest recorded is at 88.74 SY 2019-2020 and the lowest is at
75.49 in SY 2020-2021. It is notable that the decline in the transition rates started in SY 2019-
2020 which continued until SY 2020-2021. This can be associated with the emergence of the
COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020 which affected the end-of school year preparations of
learners.
Alternative Learning System
Completers in the Alternative Learning System (ALS) increased specifically in ALS Basic
Literacy Program (BLP), elementary and secondary. Completers of ALS BLP increased from
107 in SY 2019- 2020 to 149 in SY 2020-2021. This is similar to the performance of ALS
elementary completers which increased from 794 in SY 2019-2020 to 815 in SY 2020-2021.
17
ALS secondary completers also had significant gains from 3,975 in SY 2019-2020 to 4,427 in
SY 2020-2021.
Similar with the ALS completers, ALS participation rate has also recorded significant
increase except for ALS BLP. ALS elementary participation rate increased from 68 in SY 2019-
2020 to 73.95 in SY 2020-2021. This is comparative with the performance of ALS secondary
which increased from 77.82 in SY 2019-2020 to 81.81 in SY 2020- 2021. However, ALS BLP
showed slight decrease from 73.79 in SY 2019-2020 to 71.63 in SY 2020-2021.
Generally, the figures support the above claims that ALS is effective in bringing out-
of-school youths, children, and adults back to schools and learning centers.

The table shows the comparative enrolment of Private - Public Schools in the division
of Rizal. With 407 private schools, it was observed that it contributed 15.8% - 23% of the total
enrolment from Kindergarten to Grade 12 for the past 3 years.
It is reflected that in SY 2019-2020, private schools contributed 23% or 126, 119 out
of 549, 224 and suddenly declined to 17% of the next SY 2020-2021 with 94 594 out of 451
120 and continuously declining to 15.8% with 89, 028 out of 475 953 for SY 2021-2022.
The continuous decline of private school enrolment is associated with transfer of
schools of some of our learners from private to public schools due to the prevalent emergency
crisis which can affect the economic status of the community.

Table 8
Private School Data on Access
The table shows the Private School Data from SY 2016-2017 to SY 2020-2021 in terms
of Schools for Renewal, Recognized Schools, and Closed Schools.
In terms of schools for renewal, it was shown that the least number of schools
renewed was in SY 2016-2017 with 191 schools in elementary and 45 in Junior High School
with 236 schools. The trend continued to increase until SY 2020-2021 with 220 in elementary
and 62 in Junior High School for a total of 282 schools. This implies that the number of private
schools being renewed each year is increasing.
In terms of Recognized Schools, it was revealed that SY 2016-2017 had the least
number of recognized private schools with 150 in elementary and 133 in Junior High Schools
with a total of 283 private schools. For SY 2020-2021, there were 156 in elementary and 133
in JHS with a total of 289 recognized schools. It is also notable that there was a decrease in
secondary recognized schools from SY 2019-2020 to SY 2020-2021 which is attributed to the
emergence of COVID-19 pandemic.
In terms of Closed schools, it is evident that no closed schools were recorded from
SY 2016-2017 to SY 2019-2020 but in SY 2020- 2021 there was an influx from 0 to 55 which is
a 19.03% increase. This was correlated with the effects of the pandemic where most of the
schools suffered from enrollment difficulties which eventually decided them to close the
schools due to economic reasons.
Division Targets on Access (2023-2028)
Along with its burning commitment to bring all learners to schools, SDO Rizal’s fire
blazingly aims to improve its performance in the different Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
under ACCESS in the next six years. By the end of the 6 year-plan cycle, SDO Rizal envisions
achieving the following targets.

II.B. PILLAR II- LIFT EQUITY
With the aim of providing second chance education to OSYA and mainstream children with
special needs, SDO Rizal aims to LIFT -Lead towards Inclusive and Flexible Teaching to realize
the full potentials of the learners and intensify the Division’s efforts to EQUITY.
Division Context and Analysis of Key Performance Indicators on Equity for Children,
Youths, and Adults in Situation of Disadvantage
Including all learners and ensuring that everyone has an equal and personalized
opportunity for educational progress starts with inclusive education systems. As such, SDO
Rizal aims to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning
opportunities for children with special needs, out-of-school youths, children, and adults,
indigenous peoples, and Madrasahs.
Inclusive Education (IE) in the Division is expressed through existing programs such as
Special Education, Indigenous Peoples Education, Madrasah Education, and Flexible Learning
Options including Alternative Delivery Mode and Alternative Learning System. These
altogether address the context and needs of learners in disadvantaged situations. Special
Interest Programs also cater to learners who manifest the interest and aptitudes for skill sets.
To further support the effective implementation of the programs in Inclusive
Education, the succeeding data presented describe the participation and performance of
learners in SDO Rizal.
Figure 6
Inclusive Education Enrollment for the Last Five Year
Figure 6 presents the enrollment for Inclusive Education for the last five years. It
includes Alternative Learning System (ALS), MADRASAH, Special Education (SPED) and
25
Indigenous People’s Education (IPEd). For the last five years, ALS has the highest number
of the enrolment while MADRASAH has the lowest enrolment.
While all Inclusive Education programs have an unstable increase in enrolment IPEd
has a steady increase in enrolment. The decrease of enrolment in other programs may
be associated with the current pandemic due to restriction in mobility and health
protocols.
Figure 7
Number of Schools Implementing Inclusive Education Program
26
Figure 8
Number of Teachers in Inclusive Education
The figure shows that IPED and SPED constitute more teachers in inclusive education
having a total of 355 compared with ALS and Madrasah. It can be associated with the fact that
the learners in those programs are mainstreamed in regular classes. Hence, regular teachers
are also given teaching loads in IPED and SPED. On the contrary, ALS program has a total of
56 teachers while 23 teachers in Madrasah respectively. This implies that SDO Rizal needs
more teachers in ALS since it has the greatest number of enrollees.

Division Context and Analysis of Key Performance Indicators on Quality of Basic Education
Provision and Learning Outcome
This section discusses the baseline data, division targets and strategies to improve the
key performance indicators on the provision of quality education for Rizaleño learners.
This result can be attributed to health and nutrition concerns/ issues, poor reading
comprehension of the students, non-specialist teachers handling major subjects, contact time
of teachers and students, congested curriculum and inability to maximize the use of technology
in the delivery of instruction.
29
Figure 10 It could be gleaned from the
National Achievement Test (NAT) Results- graphical presentation that the result of
Secondary the National Achievement Test (NAT) in
secondary level is erratic, and the
academic performance has been
inconsistent for the indicated five school
years. There is a significant increase of
2.36% from 42.93 of 2016 as compared to
45.29% of 2017. Even though there was a
slight increase in 2017, still the mean
percentage score (MPS) is far behind from
the 75% level of mastery in line with the
national standards.
This implies that the students did not reach the intended learning competencies in line
with the national standards. Moreover, a huge learning gap that needs to be addressed in the
delivery of secondary education programs among public high schools in the division. This
could be attributed to the health and nutrition concern/ issues, poor reading comprehension
of the students, non-specialist teachers handling major subjects, contact time of teachers and
students, congested curriculum, and inability to maximize the use of technology in the
delivery of instruction.
30
Figure 12 It can be seen from the graphical
Comparative NAT Results of Grade 10 representation that there is a
SY 2016-2017 and SY 2017-2018 significant increase of mean
percentage score (MPS) with 4.36% in
the National Achievement Test (NAT)
for School Year 2017 - 2018 with
45.29 % as compared with the MPS of
40.93% for School Year 2016 - 2017.
First in rank is Filipino with a 6.86%
level of increase, followed by Araling
Panlipunan with 3.69% increase, third
in rank is Science with 2.65%
increase, and fourth is English with
0.15% increase. On the contrary,
Mathematics has a decrease in
percentage of 1.87%.
It can be interpreted that because of the different programs and projects initiated by
the Division of Rizal to bridge the gap between the academic concerns from all grade levels,
almost all subject areas significantly increase in their level of performance except for
Mathematics which decreases by only a small percentage. The said programs and projects
include the following: Training of Teachers on Critical Content and Pedagogies, Master
Teachers Development Program (MTPDP), School Heads Development Programs (SHDP),
Training Workshop on the Preparation of Concept Paper LAC sessions, Focus Group
Discussion, Division Research Conferences, and other related trainings, seminars,
symposia.

Figure 14 Figure 14 presents English-
English-Proficient Level in Junior High School SY Proficient Level in Junior High School
2019-2020 SY 2019-2020. As reflected, first in
rank is Grade 7 with 40.12 level of
proficiency, followed by Grade 8 with
39.01. Third and last in rank are
Grade 9 and 10 with 34.14% and
32.46 reading proficiency level
respectively.
In contrast with the result of
reading proficiency level in the
elementary, the high school
students’ proficiency level from
Grade 7 to Grade 10 is decreasing.
This could be attributed to the fact that teenagers are more distracted due to the
excessive use of technology, social media and other contributing factors. The attitude of
students towards reading is an influencing factor that affects their reading comprehension
performance. One of the best indicators of future reading challenges that we are aware of
is whether one or more relatives, particularly parents, struggled with reading as children.
The data signify that the proficiency level of elementary students in Filipino from
Grade 3 to Grade 4 is decreasing while in Grade 5 to Grade 6 is increasing. Generally, the
gap in the students’ comprehension was due to transition from primary to intermediate
level.

Performance in Reading
Blue Rizal: Barangayan para sa Bawat Bata Bumabasa (BR-B4) Program is the flagship
program of SDO-Rizal in addressing the problem on literacy. It is a community-based program
involving local government units, community volunteers, families, teachers- to read to all
children for them to develop enjoyment in- and love for Reading as learners transition from
“learning to read” to “reading to learn”.
Grades 1 to 3 learners were assessed using the BR-B4 Reading Assessment Tool (RAT) for
Beginning Reading in English and in Filipino. Below is the 2-year progressive data of BRB4
learners in School Year 2020-2021 and School Year 2021-2022.

For SY 2021-2022 (second year of Batch 1 Filipino), BR-B4 targeted 30% or 4,575 learners
to reach the highly developed level of BRB4 Beginning Reading Strand for English. Surprisingly,
there were 6,889 learners or 45% who reached the target level. However, the remaining 55%
or 8,361 learners are needed to be catered in BRB4 Year 2 Batch 1 in Filipino.
For SY 2021-2022 (first year of Batch 2 English), BR-B4 targeted 20% or 5,112 learners to
reach the highly developed level of BRB4 Beginning Reading Strand for English. Surprisingly,
there were 6,993 learners or 27% who reached the target level. Yet, the remaining 73% or

there were 10,362 learners or 37% who reached the target level. However, 63% or 17,702
learners are needed to be catered in BRB4 Year 1 Batch 2 in Filipino.
Performance in Numeracy
Reproduction of Numeracy Assessment Tool (NumAT) Package was realized to address
the issues and concerns on the numeracy program.
Based on learners’ report on numeracy level for Grades 1 to 3, elementary schools in
the division need to implement interventions to 9,327 (7.06%) learners under non-numerates,
and 26,816 (20.30%) under beginning level. The proposed interventions will lessen the
percentage of our clientele under non-numerates and beginning level and will lead to grade
ready level status, they will be given whole-class and/or individualized / differentiated
interventions.
To strengthen the implementation of Project NUMERO: Number Understanding Makes
Every Rizaleño Onboard, NuMAT and its Intervention will be intensified from School Year 2022-
2023 to School Year 2027-2028 to address the Gaps of learning and the challenges brought
34
about by transition from distance learning to in person classes and to mitigate learners who
were identified under non-numerates level and beginning level each year.
35
They also identified practical strategies for teaching critical content and guided them in crafting
effective lesson plans.
To ensure quality of the teaching and learning process, SDO Rizal lists priority schools
(Annex C) for monitoring, instructional supervision and provision of technical assistance with
reference to the Learning Outcomes Assessment Results for SY 2021-2022 and Electronic
Learning Assurance for Monitoring and Progress (e-LAMP).

Learners are resilient, know their rights, and have the life skills to protect themselves and claim
their education-related rights from DepEd and other duty bearers to promote learners’ well-
being, while being aware of their responsibilities as individuals and as members of society.
In education, teachers and other school staff play a very important role in learner’s safety and
child protection. The terms ‘child protection’ and ‘safeguarding’ are used synonymously. With this,
SDO-Rizal learners must be secured through safeguarding their learning environment which embraces
physical, mental, psychosocial, and emotional factors. Hence, several issuance were released by the
Department of Education to protect learners and help them become resilient individuals who are
equipped with skills that would enable them to stand and persist amidst hardships and trials.
Every learner has the right to access quality education thus, he/she has the right to be safe in
the event of disaster. As stipulated in R.A. 10821 otherwise known as the “Children's Emergency Relief
and Protection Act” sets a standard of accountability to children in terms of protection and provision
of their needs before, during, and after a disaster.
Moreover, this is supported by D.O. 37 s. 2015 also known as the “Comprehensive Disaster
Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM) in Basic Education Framework” which guides the DRRM
efforts in the basic education sector towards resilience-building in offices and schools, and to ensure
that quality education is continuously provided and prioritized even during disasters and/or
emergencies., it is imperative to protect the rights of learners in times of emergencies.
Relatively, DepEd Order no. 40 s., 2012 titled Child Protection Policy ensures that protection
from abuse, violence, exploitation, discrimination, bullying, and other forms of abuse has been
provided. Moreover, in order to help the learners achieve and maintain their good health status which
greatly affect their academic performance, strict implementation and adherence to DepEd WinS
Program is enjoined.
DepEd Rizal has the burning desire to empower schools and the organizations in developing
the integrated projects, programs, activities, and contextualized curricula in building resilient, safe and
sound learners, teaching and non-teaching personnel, stakeholders, and facilities based on the
identified needs and targets.
Learners are safe and protected and can protect themselves from risks and impacts from
natural and human-induced hazards.
A. Percentage of Learners Equipped with Capacity on What to Do Before, During, and After
Disaster/Emergency.
In the 2022 Child Friendly School System (CFSS) Checklist, 292 school-respondents gave SDO Rizal
a better perspective on how to chart the delivery of quality and basic education for the next six years.
One best indicator was 97.9% of schools have organized and capacitated their respective School
Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Committees (SDRRMCs).
42
Table 17
2022 Child Friendly School System Checklist Results on DRRM
Indicators Number %
Schools have organized and capacitated their SDRRMCs 286 98
Schools regularly conduct evacuation drills 279 96
Schools have adequate emergency/first-aid kits 263 90
Schools have safe facilities 262 89
Schools have identified and prepared alternative learning spaces 228 78
Figure 26 presents the 2022 Child -Friendly School System Checklist Results on the other disaster
response and readiness indicators based on the Child-Friendly School System (CFSS) Checklist: a)
95.5% (279/292) of schools regularly conduct evacuation drills for earthquake, fire, flooding, etc., b)
90% (263/292) of schools have adequate emergency/first-aid kits readily available, c) 89.7% (262/292)
of schools have safe facilities in place to address hazard threats (fire exits, fire extinguishers,
appropriate electrical wirings), and d) 78% (228/292) of schools have identified and prepared
alternative learning spaces in cases of emergencies.
These figures entail that schools have a good foundation and practices in CFSS. At the same time,
22% of schools still have to prepare alternative learning spaces, especially that Rizal is frequented by
natural calamities. With this, SDO- Rizal assures that it recognizes and respects the range of rights of
children, and not just their right to be educated. Wherein, SDO-Rizal values the rights of the children
to be healthy, to be given opportunities for play and leisure, to be protected from harm and abuse, to
express their views freely, and to participate in decision-making according to their evolving capacities.
B. Percentage of Learners Who are Aware of DRRM and CCAM and Peacebuilding
Table 18
2022 Child Friendly School System Checklist Results on DRRM, CCAM and Peacebuilding
Indicators Number %
Students involved in meetings and planning sessions on well-being 267 91
Students involved in meetings and planning sessions on DRRM 252 86
Have strong partnerships with external stakeholders 263 90
The table shows awareness of learners on Disaster Risk Reduction Management (DRRM),
Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation (CCAM), and Peacebuilding based on the 2022 CFSS
checklist. As can be gleaned from the chart, 91.40% of schools involve the students in meetings and
planning sessions that concern their well-being, 86.30% of schools involve their students in the
organizing, planning, and executing the disaster preparedness and response plan, and 90.00% of
schools have strong partnerships with external stakeholders in order to address disaster risk reduction
and the CCA-related needs of the school (i.e. data and statistics, capacity building, resources, etc.).
These data imply that schools must maximize the full and active involvement of learners and
stakeholders in their respective DRR, CCAM, and Peacebuilding plans and activities. It also denotes
43
that SDO-Rizal takes the lead in empowering the learners, personnel, schools, and offices to ensure
safety and learning continuity; institutionalize Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM),
Climate Change Adaptation (CCA), and Peacebuilding in the scope of work across and within all levels
of DepEd; and strengthen the resilience of K-12 education in the context of natural and human-
induced hazards.
As gleaned from Figure 28, it shows that there is an average of 77.21% of schools who have
responded to 2022 CFSS Goal No. 2: Enhance Children’s Health and Well-being with 11 indicators.
The figure below shows that 97.60% of schools have established Parent-Teacher Association
(PTA) and has elected leaders, meets regularly, and has a written plan of action, 95.90% of schools
have coordination with the barangay and local authorities to ensure the safety and protection of
learners, 92.80% of teachers use non-threatening styles of disciplines, 83.00% of schools have
functional clinic, and 73.90% of schools have a steady supply of clean and safe drinking water.
These figures show that schools still have to improve their facilities to ensure a safe and
motivating environment for all learners. With this, the data implies that SDO-Rizal should conduct
needs analysis reflecting the total enrollment, existing number of usable classrooms, current
classroom ratio and ideal classroom ratio based on the standard parameters of the Department to
help ensure the provision of safe spaces for students and teachers inside the campus premises.
Table 19
2022 Child Friendly School System Checklist Results on Safe Schools
Child Friendly School System Checklist Number of Schools
Schools with established Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) 97.60% (285 schools)
Schools with coordination to the Barangay and Local Authorities 95.89% (280 schools)
Schools using Non-threatening Styles of Disciplines 92.81% (271 schools)
Schools with Functional Clinic 82.88% (242 schools)
Schools with Steady Supply of Clean and Safe Drinking Water 73.97% (216 schools)
Learners know their rights and have the life skills to claim their education-related rights. Aside
from the rights of the child to access quality education, a child has also the right to respect the well-
being of the learning environment which involves all other children's rights within basic education.
With this SDO-Rizal promotes the best interest in a learning environment that seeks to ensure
learners’ optimum development. In promoting the best interest of the children, SDO Rizal should have
stronger deterrence and special protection against child abuse, exploitation, and discrimination where
learners or children must be secured from other matters that will be harmful for their safety whether
it is physical and mental.

Table 19 shows that there is a decrease on the number of reported child abuse and child
bullying cases through the implementation of policies, programs, projects, and systems that promote
the rights to a safe learning environment.
It can be noted that in S.Y. 2020-2021 and S.Y. 2021-2022, no cases of child bullying were
recorded. The incidence of abuse and bullying may have declined because of the pandemic, immediate
intervention, and aggressive prevention through provision of technical assistance of the Legal Unit. It
is also possible that the apparent decline is explained by a drop in the number of cases being identified
and reported or by changes in practices of child protection policies, programs, and projects.
Table 21
Number of Filled Positions of Guidance Counselors and Coordinators
Position No. of Filled Position
Registered Guidance Counselors 2
Guidance Counselors 12
Designated Guidance Coordinators 236
Table 20 shows that under DepEd’s staffing standard, public and private elementary and high
schools are required to hire guidance counselors for every 500 students. However, the above figure
shows that DepEd Rizal lacks licensed or registered guidance counselors resulting in designating the
236 teachers which they were not supposed to.
Moreover, Republic Act No. 9258 or the “Guidance Counseling Act of 2004”, sought to
professionalize the practice of guidance and counseling by prohibiting non-registered individuals from
practicing guidance and counseling. This law punishes violators with imprisonment of up to eight years
or a fine of up to Php100,000.00. But with the passage of the Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013,
it allows non-registered guidance counselors to work as career advocates, provided that they need to
undergo training at DepEd.
For lack of registered guidance counselors, teachers were assigned as school guidance
counselors and given the title “guidance teacher” to go around the law. It does not also fulfill the
mandate of the DepEd’s Child Protection Policy wherein in cases of child abuse and bullying,
immediate intervention like counseling must be done. It must be noted that a guidance counselor is a
member of a Child Protection Committee that must be existing in every school. Low compensation
but requiring higher educational standards of a master’s degree is the major reason for the severe
45
shortage of registered guidance counselors in the DepEd as a whole.
Mental health, commonly disregarded and satirized, must be addressed accordingly as with
the physical well-being of an individual. While we have unique ways to deal with this unseen ailment,
it is important to acknowledge that one may have been suffering from mental stress, anxiety, and
other forms of mental and psychosocial health problems.

Considering the fast-changing times and ever progressive needs of the various
employee groups in DepEd Rizal, this Division Office takes a leap of faith to be responsive to
the needs of its people. Retention is never easy, thereby a conscious effort from the
Organization to look into the core of every needs-assessment result and the Voice of the
Customers to be able to provide an in-depth analysis and purposeful interventions to
inculcate a culture of compassion from on-boarding to outgoing (transition phase to
retirement phase).
As of this writing, Fiscal year 2022, there are 98 separated employees, 93 were
identified as teaching personnel hopeful for a greener pasture by venturing to U.S Exchange
Visitor Program (Teacher Category) which is a rightful act of the personnel to enhance their
professional advancement and general welfare.
The following are the programs cum strategies for retention of employees both

Ideal learning environment and adequate learning resources for learners ensured.
In response to DepEd Order No. 018, s. 2020 or the Policy Guidelines for the Provision
of Learning Resources in the Implementation of the Basic Education Learning Continuity, SDO-
Rizal establishes guidelines that enable the Office to provide learning resources in the
implementation of the BE-LCP. It also establishes the guidelines on the release, utilization,
64
and liquidation of support funds for the printing and delivery of self-learning modules and
other learning resources.
Learning resources are crucial for both teachers and students. It is a part of the
teaching-learning strategy and provides teachers with valuable information on various topics.
It keeps them updated with relevant information and helps in their professional development.
Teachers need to update their knowledge from time to time because the quality of teachers
is the most important factor in determining the effectiveness of school systems.
In SDO- Rizal, it is a must that the department needs to consider the quality of learning
resources it is producing for the teachers and students to use.
Education in SDO-Rizal has made significant progress over the years. Both private and
public schools facilitate education for Rizaleṅo children and follow the same regulations for
teaching curriculum. With this, SDO-Rizal aims to have a well-equipped facility in terms of
library, classroom, laboratories which are functional. These physical environment
mechanisms into the school systems motivate the learners and help them in realizing their
talents and building their personalities.
Relatively, in SDO-Rizal schools are funded by the three levels i.e., the state, local and
central levels where the highest percentage of schools offer primary education.
The table shows that the proportion of schools achieving an ideal ratio in terms of
classroom: learners is 1:2. From the data, it could be gleaned that in School Year 2019-2020,
SDO-Rizal is having a 1:40 ratio and aiming to decrease the number of students per classroom
throughout the run of the school years until SY 2027-2028 to achieve the ideal size per
classroom.
At present, SDO- Rizal’s buildings from the updated NSBI and Damage Assessment in
CY 2020-2022 shows the condition of classrooms.
Table 30
NSBI and Damage Assessment in CY 2020-2022
65
The data clearly shows the condition of classrooms from the updated NSBI and
Damage Assessment in CY 2020-2022. This reflects that there is a decrease in the number of
classrooms which are in good condition while there is an increase in classrooms needing
major repair.
Among the factors that led to the increasing number of classrooms for major repair
was due to the inability to conduct regular and on-site inspections of school facilities.
Routine inspections are crucial to keep classrooms and facilities safe and disaster
resilient. Relatively, this is to ensure that preventive maintenance and timely reporting of
classroom conditions were done promptly. However, the strict implementation of health
protocols and work-from-home set up during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic severely
caused the limited movement of people including school custodians and facilities
coordinators who conduct such routine inspections.
Meanwhile, it confirms that the increasing number of classrooms for major repair was
compounded by the unavailability of funding, as reflected in the Target versus the
Accomplishments in the table of Repair and Construction of Classrooms. Thus, the funding
for this school infrastructure program was redirected to the pandemic response and the
acquisition of much-needed materials for the conduct of distance learning.
Table 31
Repair and Construction of Classrooms

The actual requirements in CY 2022 NSBI indicate 2,368 classrooms needing
immediate major repair and rehabilitation (CY 2023-2025 targets) and 2,155 classrooms for
minor repair (CY 2026-2028 target).
This implies that the SDO-Rizal is still planning and eyeing to hire teachers in the
coming years.
In terms of textbooks, the table shows that at present the ratio of learner: textbook
ratio is 1:2 and with that, SDO-Rizal aims to provide pupils/students in all public schools with
a complete set of textbooks by the coming school years. With that data, SDO-Rizal believes
that it will be embraced all throughout the school year’s plan.
In terms of seats, SDO-Rizal, the baseline data of seats: learners ratio is 1:20 is shown
in the table. SDO-Rizal throughout the run of the school year aims to provide an adequate
number of seats to learners as classroom seating arrangements affect student learning,
motivation, participation, and teacher-student and student-student relationships.
In terms of laboratories having Science and Mathematics equipment and ICT package
and e-classroom, SDO-Rizal has the baseline data SME equipment and ICT package: school of
1:20 ratio and continues its mission to provide complete equipment for SME and TVL use.
Generally, the data shows the provision of access to basic education has always been
a key priority of the government. Promptly, access to education is the first step to achieving
a bright future. That is why SDO-Rizal always aims that every Filipino has and will have access
to complete basic education.
In lieu of this, SDO- Rizal has an idea of putting libraries in the different sub offices and
school stations.
In line with DepEd Order No. 6 series 1998 otherwise known as “Policies and Programs
for School Library Development”, a school library is very important in the attainment of the
objectives of education. Each elementary and secondary school must have a functional
library.
67
In this regard, SDO-Rizal points out to increase the number of libraries as a service
center, reading center, guidance center, material production center, and most importantly
teaching-learning center. The library should be the center of a school being an integral and
indispensable part of it.
The table shows that there are 48 and 21 functional libraries respectively in
elementary and secondary schools and eyes to increase the number of libraries by the coming
school years as school libraries should provide basic print supplementary materials, in
addition to adequate copies of textbooks and teacher’s manuals, in accordance with the
Guidelines on Supplementary Materials Intended for Public Elementary and Secondary
Schools.
In the next six years, the SDO shall direct at a target, Table 1 below which outlines the
indicators to aim and evaluate Enabling Mechanism 3.

SDO Rizal endeavors to deliver citizen-centric quality public services across all levels of
governance. It was evident through ISO certification 9001:2015, establishing the Quality Management
System wherein the division office was certified. Pursuant to EO 6O5 and following the Department’s
thrust, SDO Rizal has deemed it necessary to establish a Quality Management System that will allow
for the integration of its internal systems and alignment of processes within and across governance
levels, upgrading of people’s capacity, consistency in the delivery of quality services and promotion of
continuous improvement towards enhanced and sustained client satisfaction.

Primarily, this system aimed to ensure the quality of service through streamlining and
standardization of processes and reduction in variability in implementation, increased productivity
and efficiency through clarity in operations and process holders, strengthened accountability through
transparent communication within and among offices and personnel in the organization and its
external stakeholders, enhanced client satisfaction through the improvement of the organization’s
ability to understand fully and consistently meet client’s requirements and continued performance
excellence through the institutionalization of continuous improvement as core value and practice of
the Department.
SDO Rizal is committed to provide quality service to its clients. This puts a premium on the
value of the feedback and satisfaction ratings given by its internal and external clientele which serves
as a manifestation of the efficiency and effectiveness of the systems and processes in the division.
For the next six years, SDO Rizal targets that all clients are satisfied with the services of SDO Rizal with
5.0 average range of score having Outstanding verbal interpretation. Through collusion and
continuous improvement anchored on QMS Quality Policy, SDO Rizal will institutionalize and
standardize the systems and processes which will be revealed by Client Satisfaction results.

Education stakeholders are at the forefront of DepEd's mission to deliver continuous learning
opportunities. Building shared responsibility is very important in strengthening the capacity of DepEd
for the effective delivery of instruction and learning. The meaningful support of all basic education
stakeholders provides an opportunity to provide accessible and quality education for all.
With the sustained partnership, the commitment and collective efforts of all these education
team players help us in ensuring that our learners have access to quality educational opportunities.
With the effective measures employed for this mechanism, the following data shows the contribution
from local stakeholders based on the summary of data from DepEd Partnerships Database System.

The DEDP will be implemented from 2023 to 2028 with Phase 1 from 2023 to 2025
(midterm) and Phase 2 from 2026 to 2028 (second and end term) of the education plans.
Phase 1 – (2023–2025) consists of the preparations and response plans to mitigate the
negative effects of COVID-19 on learning and participation. Specifically, the Learning Recovery
and Continuity Plan (LRCP) focuses on the preparations to the gradual transition from distance
learning to in-person learning modalities and the learning gaps that need to be addressed by the
schools and learning areas. Leadership development plans, learning environment and resources,
teacher development, and programs on reading, numeracy and socio-emotional learning are
given emphasis.
The Phase 2- (2026–2028) focuses on sustaining the gains and evaluating programs.
Monitoring and evaluating the programs are prioritized. Adjusting or developing new programs
to respond to emerging education issues may be carried out.
In 2020, as part of the strengthening of systems and processes, SDO Rizal initiated the
operationalization of the Public Affairs Team (PAT) and Blue Rizal Press Corps (BRPC) which have
been created by the Top Management to intensify information dissemination of Division Office
(SDO) of Rizal on having a unified information to the public, partners, employees, and other
stakeholders for a positive organizational image and sustained partnerships and advocate on
“over communication.”
This phase starts at the end of Year 2022. In this phase, SDO Rizal
IV.B.1. targets to conduct First Convergence of Stakeholders (part 1). This
PHASE 1A: convergence aims to present the Division targets relative to the 4
PRE- pillars of 2023-2028 DEDP, including the strategies to be done in

Initial Implementation Phase (Year 1)
Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) shall guide the implementation of DEDP that
integrates results-based M&E in major programs, projects, and activities in DepEd towards
improving the delivery of basic education services and desired outcomes based on targets
set by the Division Office.
M&E strategies explain and ensure that the department's systems and processes are
geared towards the efficiency and effectiveness of its services, objectives and indicators
set are achievable while all operating units are contributory to expected outcomes. This
shall follow the outputs by strategy of the BEDP.
M&E adheres to the BEDP Results Framework as stated in the DepEd Order 029, s.
2022. All basic education plans and implementation shall subscribe to the intermediate
outcomes (IOs) and Enabling Mechanisms (EMs), as applicable hence, this will provide
80
bases for measuring the performance of the Division and contribute to evidence-based
decision-making.
Phases of monitoring and evaluation are: (1) planning and target setting (DEDP); (2)
Annual and Mid-Term Review of the DEDP; and (3) End of Term Review and Results
evaluation of the DEDP.
DepEd Rizal has forged partnership with Salt Payatas and a group of Research
Professors from three universities in Japan. The partnership has been agreed for a 3-year
period with activities to conduct research, evaluate programs and projects, and capacity
building.
Pillar 1 Access
Below highlights the key performance indicators (KPIs) on access including DepEd’s
targets in 2026 and 2030. Access indicators are expanded to cover school-age children,
learners in school, out-of-school children (OSC), and out-of-school youth (OSY). Most KPIs are
currently verifiable in the Enhanced Basic Education Information System (EBEIS) except
indicators pertaining to incidences of OSC and OSY. Targets pertaining to OSC and OSY will be
set when mechanisms for determining baseline information are established and operational.

Pillar 2 Equity
The MEA Framework of Pillar 2 highlights DepEd’s commitment to inclusion. The table
contains the KPIs that will be used to measure involvements and performance of learners or
groups in situations of disadvantage.
The table also outlines the indicators, proposed means of verification (MOV), and the
M&E strategies to be used in validating the outcomes under Equity. To date, no targets on
Equity are committed pending the completion of baseline information on learners in
situations of disadvantage and development of systems that will “tag” learners in situations
of disadvantage.

Pillar 4 Learners’ Resiliency and Well-Being
The MEA Framework for Pillar 4 shows the KPIs to be used in planning learners’
resiliency and well-being. Together with Equity, Pillar 4 highlights DepEd’s commitments to
advance the rights and well-being of learners. Currently, the mechanisms for verifying KPIs
under Pillar 4 will need to be established and set up. As of this period, no targets are set for
most KPIs.

LEARNING RECOVERY
PLAN
V.C. BLUE RIZAL: TRAILBLAZING THE ROAD OF SUCCESS TO THE 2023-2025 LEARNING
RECOVERY PLAN (LRP)
The Schools Division Office of Rizal has been proactive in designing a new strategic
plan to address the challenges brought by this pandemic for the past 2 years in the
context of public health emergencies throughout the country. Gaps encountered by
learners during closing of schools and remote learning due to COVID-19 have also been
identified. Learning gaps and losses occurred due to physiological, psychological and
sociological aspects and by inequality of resources of learners in low to middle income
families during the remote or distance learning set-up. With the easing of safety and
health protocols, face-to-face classes are allowed to provide the necessary learning
support to our students. The current class and teacher programming of the schools differ
based on the context of their learners, learning environment and available resources.
Each school faces different challenges and problems which require a differentiated
approach to better serve its learners.
By the year 2022 to 2025, SDO Rizal shall take a leap in developing and
empowering learners and teachers and priming them for success. Both shall adapt open
learning strategies with a collection of multiple literacies where they harmonize to the
21st century skills. By addressing missed learning opportunities contained in the
Learning Recovery and Continuity Plan, learners and teachers shall realize their full
potential as functionally literate, happy, resilient, and positive agents of social
transformation.
Moreover, SDO shall strive to effectively operationalize the learning recovery plan
by implementing learner-focused and outcomes-driven pedagogies to address learning
gaps and losses; accelerating our human resource management practices to foster an
enabling and supportive learning environment; providing quality assured learning
materials for all types of learners; forging productive partnerships to generate
resources, and applying monitoring and evaluation models to ensure attainment of
desired outcomes.

monitored. The schools have been implementing its own contextualized numeracy
improvement projects during the online or remote teaching due to the pandemic. With
the return of face-to-face teaching, facilitation of Division-initiated numeracy
improvement programs can commence to determine the baseline data for the numeracy
level.

Blue Rizal: Barangayan para sa Bawat Bata Bumabasa (BRB4) Program is the flagship
program of SDO-Rizal in addressing the problem of literacy. It is a community-based program
involving local government units, community volunteers, families, teachers- to read to all
children for them to develop enjoyment in- and love for Reading as learners transition from
“learning to read” to “reading to learn”.
99
Grades 1 to 3 learners were assessed using the BR-B4 Reading Assessment Tool (RAT)
for Beginning Reading in English and in Filipino. Below is the 2-year progressive data of BR-
B4 learners in School Year 2020-2021 and School Year 2021-2022. There is an average

Copious research has shown that the impact of social-emotional learning (SEL) runs
deep. SEL programs are shown to increase academic achievement and positive social
interactions and decrease negative outcomes later in life. SEL helps individuals develop
competencies that last a lifetime.
Social-emotional learning is vital for students because it teaches them crucial life
skills, including the ability to understand themselves, develop a positive self-image, take
responsibility for their actions, and forge relationships with the people around them. It
can also be critical for students to build confidence and self-esteem. Through SEL, kids can
gain a better understanding of themselves and of the people around them. They can gain
the skills and knowledge that will help them understand their emotions, develop their
identities, and set goals.
Before the opening of classes on August 22, the Technical Working Group for Oplan Balik
Eskwela of each school in SDO - Rizal included online and face to face discussions on
psycho-social and socio-emotional concerns of students and other personnel. In this
program, the School Disaster Risk Reduction Management Coordinator together with the
designated guidance counselors provided different intervention strategies that would help

B. Content and Pedagogy
Following the MELCS and BOWs per subject area, the content and delivery of
learning may take place in a blended approach with the re-introduction of face-to-face
teaching. Strengthen instructional leadership and supervision to improve quality of
content and pedagogy.
C. Assessment and Reporting in the K to 12
Changes in terms of assessment system will be encountered for this School Year
especially with the inclusion of Face-to-Face activities. Strengthen Instructional
Supervision and Technical Assistance for the Quality Assurance of Assessment.
D. 21st Century Skills and ICT Integration in Instruction and Assessment
Integration of ICT especially in the New Normal has been a vital mode of
transmitting information and aid in learning delivery of the schools in the Division. ICT
improvements in terms of Programs, Projects, and Activities (PPAs) were developed in
the previous years and will continue to intensify for the next three years.
E. Curriculum Contextualization, Localization, and Indigenization
Contextualization and localization of learning materials are reflected in the
different programs and projects of the schools in the SDO-Rizal. Development of
Learning Materials through available Learning Packets and WLP may be explored in
this aspect.
GAPS
For Numeracy
Based on the Situational Analysis, the following Gaps were identified. It is quite
notable that 104, 293 (35.62%) learners fall within the category of Needs Major Support,
which is below the standard performance target of 75% (DepEd Order No. 8, s. 2015).
·SDO-Rizal rank 3 among with the lowest ES Math MPS of 61.03 and MPS Gap of 35.97

Within three years, from 2022 to 2025, the main goal of SDO Rizal is to help in
developing students who can be considered Functionally Literate 21st century learners
through numeracy and reading literacy programs, as well as those for socio-emotional
learning. Along with these programs is strengthening teachers and instructional leaders skills
and competencies related to 5 factors Content and Pedagogy, Learner Diversity and Student
Inclusion, Curriculum Contextualization, localization and Indigenization, ICT Integration in
