MAIN PURPOSES • Feedback Mechanism

• The functionality indicators are anchored in the main purposes of the SGC and are found in
FUNCTIONALITY INDICATORS Section VII of DO 26, s. 2022. In this Tool, these indicators are grouped according to the functions
per purpose.

• The functionality sub-indicators are the identified specific activities that shall enable the
FUNCTIONALITY SUB-INDICATORS achievement of their respective functionality indicator.

PRIMARY SUB-INDICATORS • These are the required sub-indicators that the SGC shall achieve in order to qualify as functional.

OTHER SUB-INDICATORS • These are the sub-indicators that the SGC may comply with if applicable

• MOVs are the required evidence for each Functionality Indicator which shall be submitted in the
Google Forms version of the tool and must be prepared by the school in case the SDO or CO
MINIMUM MOVs conducts field validation. The MOVs indicated per the Functionality Indicator and are pre-
determined to help the schools and the validators.

ADDITIONAL MOVs • MOVs that the school may provide if applicable.

For an SGC to be considered functional, the Council must be able to comply with at least 10
out of the 12 (80%) Functionality Indicators based on the minimum MOVs submitted.
Thus, at a minimum, a functional SGC complies with the following requirements:

1. The Functionality Indicators without sub-indicators are observed (Yes to the

Functionality Indicators without sub-indicators).
2. The Primary Sub-Indicators, under Functionality Indicators with sub-indicators,
are observed (Yes to the Primary Sub-Indicators).
3. The Minimum MOVs are submitted.

The Other Sub-Indicators are also recommended to be attained to further strengthen the
SGC’s functionality. Further, Additional MOVs may be submitted when available to
showcase its advanced practices.
