The additional educators would foster a more conducive learning environment in public school students. The non-teaching personnel will be assigned to different field offices and schools throughout the country.
“More than being part of our 10-point agenda, we want to stay true to our word that the department is relentless in finding ways to enhance personnel welfare, while at the same time improving the delivery of quality education,” Briones said.
The DepEd Computerization Program (DCP) also aims to provide modern technologies to all public students to improve the learning process.
