He said an honest report is needed considering the challenges hampering the education sector which was worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic and lack of face-to-face classes.
He also hopes the upcoming report would include steps to address such crisis.
Upang matugunan natin ang krisis sa sektor ng edukasyon, kailangang kilalanin natin kung gaano kabigat ang mga hamong ating kinakaharap,
Gatchalian said.
We will also continue to promote the necessary reforms to raise the quality of education in the country and address the damage caused by the pandemic,
he added.
According to him, the Second Congressional Commission on Education (EDCOM II) will have a significant role in tackling the country’s education crisis and proposing needed reforms.
The EDCOM II, also co-chaired by Gatchalian, is mandated to review the education sector’s performance and recommend reforms to boost Filipinos’ competitiveness. It is set to start its national assessment this month.
