在菲律宾马尼拉,全国至少177名天主教学校领导人齐聚一堂,支持通过“私立基础教育券计划”扩大政府援助。菲律宾天主教教育协会(CEAP)组织了此次活动,旨在探讨政府补贴私立教育学生的关键原则,并加深对该计划政策基础的理解。

私立教育协会协调委员会法律顾问约瑟夫·诺埃尔·埃斯特拉达(Joseph Noel Estrada)强调了家长赋权的重要性。埃斯特拉达表示:“当家长只能选择公共教育时,他们在引导子女成长方面的基本作用就受到了限制。”他补充说,扩大教育选择权不仅维护了家长的权利,还有助于社会和国家的发展,同时通过减轻公立学校的压力,支持了人力资本增长及资源的有效利用。

埃斯特拉达指出,私立学校帮助政府节省了校舍建设和教师聘用的成本,并为全国高成就测试成绩做出了贡献。然而,他强调减轻公立学校压力不应成为补贴的主要动力。他说:“赋予学生选择权,这才是更根本、更核心的。应将学生教育券范围扩大到小学,并将选择权还给家庭。”

CEAP执行董事纳西·阿多尔·迪奥尼西奥(Narcy Ador Dionisio)强调,获得优质教育需要卓越的计划执行力。迪奥尼西奥表示:“质量必须是扩张的基石;否则,没有卓越作为保障的普及,可能最终只是一句空头支票。”
