DepEd to stop recognizing best ‘Brigada Eskwela’ implementers

“The [schools division office] level recognition shall focus on the partners and stakeholders on their voluntary contribution and participation [in] Brigada Eskwela,” Escobedo said.First launched in 2003, the Brigada Eskwela — or the National Schools Maintenance Week program — encouraged public schools to partner with local communities and organizations from both the public and private sectors in carrying out minor to medium repairs weeks before the opening of classes.

the Brigada Eskwela Plus, which seeks to increase learner participation and reduce dropouts, and improve education quality in participating schools to increase student performanceIn the 2021 National Brigada Eskwela Awards, DepEd recognized 130 schools from 16 regions under different categories such as small schools, medium schools, large schools, and mega schools for both elementary and secondary levels.

Although DepEd did not specify the issues and concerns that prompted the changes in the program, some public school teachers had said in previous interviews with the Inquirer that the competition aspect was forcing them to solicit support — whether in cash or in kind — and even use their own money to improve their classrooms. In fact, some had jokingly referred to themselves as “solicitors general.

Another teacher who also asked not to be named called out the contradiction in a DepEd memorandum which said school heads should “engage education partners during Brigada Eskwela for resources generation” for the printing of materials and the acquisition of sanitation and medical supplies, among others.
