NARRATIVE REPORT ON BRIGADA ESKWELA

August 1-26, 2022

The school is an institution which is responsible in molding the learners into a

responsible individual in the society. This is where one is crafted into a better person, who
will be an emblem of the kind of learning center where he was raised. The multifarious
concern of school demands working with others to accomplish designed tasks and
objectives. These would need dedicated school personnel, cooperative parents, accountable
community, and innovative learners.

Educators believe that environment plays a big part in pupils’ learning. And so, if
classrooms are not conducive to learning because of poor condition and some defective
school facilities, education is hindered. The Department of Education conducted this year’s
Brigada Eskwela with the theme “Brigada Eskwela: Tugon sa Hamon ng Ligtas na Balik-
Aral.”, also known as the National Schools Maintenance Week where all education
stakeholders contributed their time, effort, and resources in ensuring that the school
facilities are ready in time for the school opening. Parents, school alumni and other people
from the community were encouraged to join the week - long annual program. Since no
national government money was put into Brigada Eskwela, private businesses, NGO’s,
private individuals and local government were tapped to solicit donations to cover the effort
of repair and maintenance of the school. It was on First week of August when the school
physical facilities coordinator and some PTA members performed a school ocular to identify
the school facilities that needs repair and maintenance. After this, the steering committee
planned different school’s activities for Brigada Eskwela.

Early morning of August 2, the teachers, school head and school personnel of Bagna
Elementary School, Barangay Officials, GPTA, SGC, Sulong Kabataan group and other
volunteers held a parade that signaled the start of Brigada Eskwela. The presence of
different groups ofvolunteers was acknowledged. Short orientation and welcome program
for our new school head was held. Finally, the opening of the Brigada Eskwela was
announced. The willingness, readiness and eagerness of teachers, enthusiastic parents,
excited learners, and other concern people of the community were collaborated in the said
program.

Amidst the growing population of the school is the completion of school’s facilities to
improve the learning status and physical development around the vicinity of the school. The
goal to attain quality education faces the strong demand of meeting the needs of the
learners. Yet, it’s a fact to shoulder responsibilities by making the institution a well-improved
destination to visit. 

On the first tweek – long brigade, the 4P’S Parents and Volunteers were assigned to
clean the backyard of the Building which is located in front of the covered court. As the head
of the School, Mr. De Guzman ensures that the volunteers and teachers under him were
doing their assigned work by leading it all the way. On the other hand, teachers together
with the different volunteers clean their classroom and repaired some of classroom
materials.

On the following days, teachers continued their assignments together with the
volunteers. They eliminated unnecessary papers from the past school years; sweep the floor
in and out of the room, they started to clean and remove the dust from the classroom to
make the room more refreshing for the incoming school year.

On last day of the week – long activity of the Brigada Eskwela, Teachers again asked
the help of the school guard and volunteers to put back the curtains and hang it on the walls
of the room; paint walls and ceiling . Through the overwhelming support of the volunteers,
LGU’s private individuals and school stakeholders the classrooms are restructured and
spruced up. All school facilities are now in good condition. The school surrounding is now
free from tall grasses. Generally, the school is now ready for the school opening. Evidence
for the week long activity are attached herewith.
