MARAWI CITY, Lanao del Sur--Seeing how the education sector is impacted by a strong linkage, Marawi City Schools Division [MCSD] Superintendent Anna Zenaida Unte-Alonto stressed that their convergence with various sectors, particularly the barangay local government units (BLGUs), is vital on the learners' end.
She said it is just proper to strengthen their established partnership with the BLGUs as she believes the schools division will need the aid of its stakeholders considering that it takes a village to educate a child.
"It is not only in us that the burden of the delivery of education lies, especially now in the enhancement of school-based management... The BLGUs must go along with us in the journey of the delivery of quality education," said Alonto.
The superintendent shared that the BLGUs have always been backing their educational endeavors, however, there is still a need to intensify such a connection for more support, including finances and technical skills which are all material to learners' education more importantly during the light of pandemic now and the opening of the limited face-to-face classes.
"We have a very good relation [with the BLGUs] though we need to strengthen for both parties to engage, and know our responsibility and accountability in the development, honing and teaching of our learners especially here in the City Schools Division of Marawi," said Alonto.
As part of the effort to strengthen the tie between the MCSD and the BLGU, the first-ever Barangay Education Summit was kicked off Wednesday, February 23 to convene public and private school heads, and barangay executives to discuss the legal basis of the relationship of the two.
