The Department of Education has created a Transition Committee to resolve the issue between Makati and Taguig over the jurisdiction of 14 schools in the disputed Enlisted Men’s Barrio or “embo” barangays.
The DepEd issued Department Order 23, s. 2023 which provides that the Office Education Secretary Sara Duterte shall directly supervise the management and administration of all 14 schools, pending a transition plan, effective immediately pursuant to its mandate to provide a safe and enabling learning environment, and in the pursuit of protecting the best interest and welfare of our learners, teachers and non-teaching personnel.
The TC is composed of a regional director assigned outside of Metro Manila, DepEd schools division superintendents of Taguig-Pateros and Makati, and the legal officers of the cities of Taguig and Makati.“We look forward to working wholeheartedly with the transition team created by the Vice President. This decision will greatly ease the worries and concerns of our students, parents and teachers. Kaisa kami ni Vice President Sara sa kanyang layunin.
DepEd looks forward to a peaceful and orderly opening of classes on August 29, 2023,” Makati City Mayor Abigail Binay said. For her part, Taguig City Mayor Laarni Cayetano thanked Duterte for taking a decisive role in the implementation of the final and executory Supreme Court decision transferring 10 barangays from Makati back to the jurisdiction of Taguig as it affects the management and administration of the public schools within those barangays.
