Following reports of low literacy rates among learners in different parts of the country, Senator Sherwin Gatchalian is pushing for a proposed measure that will mobilize local government units to achieve zero illiteracy.
In the province of Cagayan, a survey recently posted on its official website, revealed that 12.72 percent or 29,529 out of 231,667 learners enrolled in public schools cannot read. The 2017-2018 Early Language, Literacy, and Numeracy Assessment also revealed that the literacy rate in the province is 49.52 percent.
Under the proposed measure, the strengthened LCC is mandated to formulate a three-year roadmap on achieving illiteracy in communities. LSBs will be mandated to formulate a local roadmap based on the council’s three-year roadmap.
