Industry-led advocacy group Philippine Business for Education (PBEd) is taking proactive actions to curb learning poverty in the country as the Senate approved on second reading the Academic Recovery and Accessible Learning (ARAL) Program Act. READ:

“We should provide our young learners the right support and tools in the early stages of life to equip them with skills and knowledge vital for their cognitive, socio-emotional, and physical development,” said PBEd Executive Director Justine Raagas.A nonprofit founded by the country’s top CEOs, PBEd’s advocacies include teacher quality improvement and workforce development

The program also aims to enlist volunteer tutors with educational backgrounds to ensure continued learning even remotely. To empower local governments and spread the gains of KLT, the program was relaunched in Himamaylan City in Negros Occidental last month to strengthen the reading and math skills of Kinder 1 and 2 learners.

With this breakthrough, PBEd seeks to sustain the KLT program for it to be adopted by other local government units so that learners receive a quality education with a strong foundation in reading and math.Meanwhile, KLT Program Manager Ruth Recto urged stakeholders to continue to work together and “make a lasting impact in a child’s life by ensuring that they are given quality care and education at home and in school–because investing in a child’s future is an investment in our future.
