CLARIN, BOHOL — The Department of Education (DepEd) has successfully brought modern, interactive education to Last Mile Schools (LMS) through an international development project, with educators and learners from isolated communities reporting noticeable academic improvements and increased classroom engagement.
The initiative, implemented in partnership with the Asian Development Bank (ADB), highlights how cross-border collaborations open up transformative opportunities for Filipino learners, effectively bridging the digital divide in the country’s most vulnerable areas.
DepEd officials recently led a field inspection of the EdTech Solutions for LMS in COVID-19 Project facilities at Danahaw Integrated School to review the digital interventions deployed in remote areas.
Education Secretary Sonny Angara emphasized that geography should never determine the quality of education a child receives, underscoring that global partnerships create real breakthroughs for local learners by granting them access to tools previously out of reach.
