Naghain si Pangilinan ng panukalang batas para sa 'last mile schools' sa malalayong lugar

Naghain si Senador Kiko Pangilinan ng panukalang batas upang i-institutionalize ang suporta ng gobyerno para sa mga 'last mile schools' o mga paaralan sa malalayong at hindi sapat na nabibigyan ng serbisyo na lugar. Ang Senate Bill No. 1842, na kilala bilang Last Mile Schools Act, ay naglalayong magbigay ng espesyal na patakaran para sa mga paaralang ito. Inihayag ito sa isang pahayag noong Lunes, Enero 16.

Noong Lunes, Enero 16, naglabas ng pahayag si Senador Kiko Pangilinan na naghain siya ng Senate Bill No. 1842, o ang Last Mile Schools Act, upang mapanatili ang suporta ng gobyerno para sa mga paaralang 'last mile' sa buong bansa. Ayon sa panukala, maaaring ikategorya bilang last mile school ang isang learning establishment kung matutugunan nito ang ilang kriterya, kabilang ang pagkakaroon ng mas mababa sa apat na silid-aralan, mas mababa sa limang guro, at walang kamakailang budget allocation maliban sa mga pagkukumpuni.

Ang mga last mile school ay mag-a-adopt ng 'differentiated policies' sa ilalim ng Department of Education na naaayon sa mga realidad ng edukasyon sa malalayong lugar. "It directs the development of tailored approaches to learning delivery, teacher deployment, infrastructure standards, learner support services, and performance monitoring," ayon sa panukala.

Kung mapapasa, kakailanganin ng DepEd na isama sa agenda nito ang mga interbensyon para sa pag-aaral sa mga neglected areas. Ididikta rin nito sa DepEd na i-customize ang mga mekanismo ng paghahatid ng pag-aaral at magtatag ng angkop na pamantayan sa staffing.

Para sa inter-agency coordination, inuutos ng panukala sa DepEd na makipagtulungan sa Department of Public Works and Highways upang bumuo ng mga access roads patungo sa mga paaralan, sa Department of Energy upang magbigay ng kuryente sa mga lugar kung saan naroroon ang mga ito, at sa Department of Information and Communications Technology upang maghatid ng kinakailangang technological infrastructure.
