BARMM, LANAO SUR OFFICERS CONDUCT EDUCATIONAL CONSULTATION

MARAWI CITY: The Bangsamoro government continued its public consultation with educators from Lanao del Sur on November 19 to conduct a meaningful and inclusive process toward the education summit set in December 2022. Spearheaded by the Ministry of Basic, Higher and Technical Education, the activity aimed to consolidate information and wider scope of data that can contribute to the upcoming regional education summit which will be held in Davao City. Based on the dominant data gathered during the consultation, educators in the province were seeking more school buildings and facilities from the Bangsamoro government. Three school divisions in the province presented their top priorities, which were all prompted by the Marawi siege of 2017 and the Covid-19 pandemic. Marawi City Division Superintendent Dr. Anna Zenaida Unte-Alonto said 22 schools are in need of open gyms, while 23 elementary and tertiary schools need fences.
