The city council brings the concern to DepEd's attention, and seeks a study with recommendations about the actual education situation in Baguio.
BAGUIO, Philippines – Education officials in Baguio rejected claims that more than half of school children in the city were found to be struggling to read and write in English.
Bagbagen cited a supposed study in 2020 about learning issues faced by the country and the city, particularly in terms of English proficiency in elementary and secondary-level learners. He said the department conducted a cursory investigation and found that Bagbagen’s data and premise were incorrect.
Api-It said there were no recent data to support Bagbagen’s concern because the Philippine Informal Reading Inventory , usually conducted annually, was not conducted during previous years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
